Watch: Tua Tagovailoa and Manning Bros sing 'Tears in Heaven' during 'Monday Night Football'

It was an exciting matchup, without a doubt. The Jacksonville Jaguars are one of the better young teams in the league and the Cincinnati Bengals -- even without Joe Burrow -- have talent and fight.

That's all the hype you need for an early December "Monday Night Football" matchup. Sure, it would have been even bigger if we were talking about Burrow versus Trevor Lawrence rather than Lawrence versus Jake Browning, but there was still reason enough to tune in.

If the football game caught your attention but didn't keep it, there was always the alternative broadcast featuring Peyton Manning and Eli Manning. The "Manningcast" -- as its affectionally known -- is known for breaking down the game while also featuring entertaining guests and interviews.

This week, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was one of the guests on deck, and fans of the cast were treated to perhaps one of the strangest (but most beautiful) versions of "Tears in Heaven" by Eric Clapton ever.

If that's not a ratings draw, than what is?

It turns out that Tagovailoa is a talented musician as well as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. To date this season, he's thrown for 3,457 yards and 24 touchdowns with 10 interceptions.
