You've heard of "Monday Night Football" doubleheaders. What about a double dosage of the Manning brothers?
Former NFL quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning are back on ESPN2 again this week, as the Manningcast gets set for one of its last appearances of the 2023 season. This week, the brothers have twice as much work on deck, as there are two games set for Monday night.
While ESPN held Monday night doubleheaders earlier this year, Manningcast's focus those nights was on one game. That's not the case in Week 14, as Peyton and Eli will be providing analysis for both Dolphins-Titans and Packers-Giants.
The show, in its third season, has never had this element before. While ESPN doubleheaders are becoming more common, the network has not tasked the Mannings with double duty until now.

Here is more information on the Week 14 Manningcast.
Why is the Manningcast showing two games at once in Week 14?
ESPN had three "Monday Night Football" doubleheaders in 2023. In Weeks 2-3, the Manningcast focused on just one game, but that is changing in Week 14.
The Mannings will be tasked with providing insight on both of the contests in action Monday. Both Dolphins-Titans and Packers-Giants have playoff implications, so there is plenty at stake.
How will the brothers pull it off? This is what ESPN said in its press release:
"The added, reimagined Week 14 edition of Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli will bring fans many of the traditional aspects of a ManningCast with the added enhancement of watching the two games side-by-side. When situations dictate, Peyton and Eli will divert attention to a single game.
The games are not staggered, with both scheduled for an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, so there will be non-stop action for Peyton and Eli all night.
