Sports media week in review: The Manning brothers’ new hit, Aaron Rodgers’ Zen demeanor and Conor McGregor’s babbling during a Chicago Cubs telecast

While we search for a behavioral psychologist to answer that question, here are some things we learned from the week in sports media.

According to ESPN, their show Monday during the Green Bay Packers-Detroit Lions game had 1.9 million viewers, a 132% increase from its Week 1 debut. While Peyton tends to talk about himself a bit too much, the X’s and O’s are terrific, and it’s much preferable to the crew on ESPN.

Having interesting guests such as Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski helps, especially when he piles on Peyton, as he did Monday.
