Eli Manning fires shots at Tom Brady in Pro Bowl rap battle
Only a handful of quarterbacks can truly say they have one up on Tom Brady. But only one, just one, can say they have two up on the greatest signal-caller of all-time. That man is Eli Manning, who never misses an opportunity to remind you about it.
Manning’s latest reminder that he owns two Super Bowl victories over Brady came at the 2024 Pro Bowl Games in Orlando this past weekend, in a rap battle of all things. “Noted lyricist Eli Manning cooks Tom Brady in a rap battle” isn’t a statement you’d expect to see, yet it’s the one the former New York Giants quarterback gave us.
“I’m Eli Manning. I’m nice,” Manning said. “Tom Brady’s the G.O.A.T.? Sike, I beat him twice!”
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
It’s the 43-year-old in shades screaming, “hold me back, hold me back, hold me back” that really makes the video, as well as the NFC team going nuts at the unholy bars dropped on Brady. But Manning did, adding to all the fun the Pro Bowl Games provided this weekend.

Eli Manning improves to 2-0 over Peyton Manning in Pro Bowl Games
In addition to being 2-0 over Brady in the Super Bowl, Eli Manning is now 2-0 in the Pro Bowl Games over his brother, Peyton Manning. Eli’s NFC outlasted Peyton’s AFC, 64-59, in front of a crowd of 55,709 at Camping World Stadium.
“This is the leadership of the guys on this team. Double D right here [Demario Davis]. He played every snap almost. He’s in a full sweat,” Manning said after the Pro Bowl Games. “So, we have great leadership like that. These guys were playing hard. It was important to them. They came out. They took practice serious. Took the skills challenge very seriously. Dominated in that. And that gave us a great opportunity to win. Baker [Mayfield] came in the clutch in the fourth quarter.”
Manning was quick to deflect the credit to all the players.
“I wish I could take some credit, but I can’t lie, that was all them,” Manning said. “We had some big, strong boys. You weren’t [touching] a full Dexter Lawrence on the tug of war. It just wasn’t happening. It was just physically not possible. So, these guys, it was important to them. They competed. They were going all out. And it was fun to see.”
