For a game that is most likely going to be a slugfest between two struggling teams, the NFL has a trick up its sleeve to entertain its viewers. The primetime matchup will see three different broadcasts: the regular ESPN broadcast, and the ManningCast broadcast on ESPN, and for the first time, there will be a third broadcast on Disney+ and ESPN+. Homer joined the Peyton brothers to promote this third special broadcast.
When asked what his favorite football team was, Homer responded like any other casual football fan and said, “I kinda wait to see which team is winning the most and then act like I’ve always been a die-hard fan.”
Fans loved seeing their favorite Simpsons character join the world of football and jumped to the comments to express their joy. At Homer’s admission, one Detroit fan said:
I guess Homer is a Detroit Lions fan

Many fans were thrilled with his appearance on the beloved show, and one even said that watching the special broadcast might be more fun than watching the Cowboys play:
Haha… might be more entertaining than watching th Cowboys get spanked again at home.
