It runs for 8 episodes and it’s executive producers are as accomplished as the subjects—Peyton Manning and Jamie Horowitz for Omaha Productions; Ross Ketover, Pat Kelleher, Keith Cossrow and Jessica Boddy for NFL Films; Patrick Mahomes and Jacquelyn Dahl for 2PM Productions aka the same crew that made Quarterback.—Alvin aqua Blanco
