As the Falcons took down the Eagles on "Monday Night Football," Peyton and Eli Manning were just as shocked as everybody else.

Kirk Cousins led Atlanta to a close 22-21 win in Philadelphia with a game-winning drive with under a minute remaining. A crucial moment in the game, though, came while the Eagles were still up by three points.

On a third-and-3, Saquon Barkley dropped an easy pitch-and-catch, forcing the Eagles to kick a field goal and take a six-point lead that they then relinquished. 

Here's how Peyton and Eli Manning reacted on the 'ManningCast' to Barkley's massive drop, plus their thoughts on the Falcons' game-winning drive.

As the Eagles were eating away at the clock with the lead, Hurts turned toward Barkley to convert for another first down. Instead, the play became one that Barkley and Philadelphia likely wish they could have back.

"I don't know about you guys, but when you moved to a new offense, didn't you feel like two-minute was like the easiest spot to be in?" Ryan said in reference to Cousins recently joining the Falcons.

Atlanta's come-from-behind win shocked a lot of football fans, and the Manning brothers were among them. It was the Falcons' first win of the 2024 season, while the Eagles fell to 1-1 and will take on the red-hot Saints in Week 3.
