Papa John’s Super Bowl Coin Toss Starring Peyton Manning & Jerome Bettis [VIDEO]

Of any athlete, Peyton Manning might be the best commercial actor ever.  Check out his latest masterpiece.

I love this commercial.  It has a very good concept.  The commercial recreates the famous 1998 coin-toss mishap on Thanksgiving Day when Jerome Bettis played for the Pittsburgh Steelers.  The Steelers eventually lost to the Detroit Lions 19-16 in overtime.

Peyton Manning does another fantastic job in this commercial.  His line about having to make a living is delivered well and simply funny because Peyton missed the entire 2011 NFL season due to a neck injury.  Great stuff, I love this commercial.  Two thumbs up.
