ESPN's first ManningCast happened on Monday, and not many people chose to watch. In fact, fewer fans than ever before tuned in to see Peyton and Eli Manning commentate over Monday Night Football.
On Wednesday news broke that the Week 1 ManningCast posted a low viewership number. The season debut broadcast drew only an average of 872,000 viewers over the course of the San Francisco 49ers-New York Jets game, per Douglas Pucci of Programming Insider, which is an all-time low, according to NBC's Mike Florio.
