Eli Manning zings Peyton Manning after Deebo Samuel scores TD on 4th-and-6

Tony Romo is known for predicting plays before the ball is snapped while calling NFL games on CBS. Peyton Manning makes predictions, too, and Eli Manning doesn’t shy from pointing out when Peyton gets it wrong.
The Manning brothers had an amusing exchange on a Deebo Samuel touchdown. With the San Francisco 49ers facing 4th-and-6, Peyton predicted the San Francisco 49ers would not actually go for it on fourth down and ultimately take a delay. San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan, however, did have the 49ers go for it. Jimmy Garoppolo found Deebo Samuel and the former South Carolina Gamecock turned on the jets for his second TD of the game.
Peyton Manning said he wouldn’t go for it on this 4th-and-6 play.
It turned into a 40-yard touchdown for the 49ers.

Eli humorously enjoyed telling his brother “great call.” Samuel leads all 49ers receivers with 5 catches for 97 yards and a TD. He also has a rushing score as San Francisco leads LA 31-7 in the fourth quarter.
