Eli is always low key hilarious

[@usem_and_losem937]

never cared for him, until he started broadcasting, but 100% agree, this guy is hilarious

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

They players all knew about it. It was 100 percent fake. They were told to play along

[@xavieriswavier]

He’s a comedian bro without even trying

[@AB-nv7bz]

Apparently if a teammate left their phone unlocked around him the language got changed to Chinese.

[@pozmarciv]

I think I like Chad more then Eli..Lol

[@jimmyispromo]

We need more Chad Powers. Really a whole show. Mockumentary

Eli is so funny and entertaining. Plus seems like a genuine good dude and dad.

[@jonny5isalive353]

Was never a big Eli fan during his playing days, but learning about him after retiring has shown me what a good human he really is,,,

[@cdarnau]

Exactly! I use to really dislike him for the way he whined after his draft about not getting the team he wanted. Now I really like him. lol

[@abva56]

And people should also see what a great quarterback he really was too. HOF will be next.

[@AlexCruz-dj2rw]

@@abva56 for real. For sure he had some bad, bad games but man seeing him play in the 4th quarter was always a thriller.

[@abva56]

@@AlexCruz-dj2rw The bigger the game, the better he was. He didn't break. Clutch in the big game. Why the G-men with a subpar regular season record that barely got into the playoffs has two superbowls. He was the same way in college. Why the Giants drafted and wanted him so badly.

[@bdr5150]

@@abva56 im a giants fan myself, and he did have two good defenses to keep Brady in check. He made some good throws for sure. The pass to Manningham on the sideline is way better than the Tyree catch.

[@Biotoze]

Man Eli is a funny dude. Him and Peyton are so awesome together

[@Azikkii]

As a Giants fan I still remember the feeling I had when they won that 2007 Super Bowl (I was in my first year of college in Buffalo, so none of my friends were really paying attention bc they're Bills fans). On that 3rd down play I thought Manning was down and almost turned the TV off as I thought the game was over. I look back at the TV and David Tyree is making some insane catch with his head and I will never forget the feeling I had. I was like "We really are about to win a Super Bowl against the "Perfect" team". One of the happiest moments in my life!

[@ronaldr.236]

It was my third SB with the G men after the 2001 debacle and by far, and I realize each SB is better than the previous, is the greatest comeback SB ever!!!! Blue 4 Life!!!!

[@buzzkillington3840]

As a Patriot fan, i wont ever forget that either. Before that Samuel almost intercepts it, and i was like come on man, but thats okay, no way they are gonna drive it down on us, and watching that almost sack, i was like YES YES YES, and then it turned very fast into a Oh FUCK, are you kidding me?!?! lol, it was a fantastic game, and a very bittersweet moment as a sports fan but as a Patriot fan too.

[@williamhager855]

If you think Bills fans weren’t paying attention to Tom shady getting pummeled in the super bowl then you don’t know Bills fans

[@buzzkillington3840]

@@williamhager855 Oh i bet it was a beautiful sight to see as a fan of the only actual new york team lol

[@jamesnightingale2788]

How’d you turn the tv off then see the David tyree catch?

[@bmcallister1974]

The Manning brothers are just great TV. I roared watching Eli as Chad Powers 😂

[@postupmedia]

Eli continues to shine well after his playing days are over. Thank you Eli for being you

[@formula1555]

The Michael Phelps story is hilarious

[@Devina210]

The Manning Brothers are hilarious! I love all their skits and stuff on SNL. I totally understand why Jimmy wife was hanging out with them.

[@junxeve]

I like that he didn’t take the easy route to continue traditions with his daughters. Like he wasn’t like come into the football locker room and meet people you probably won’t care about but they’re easily accessible. Instead he took the longer route and figured out a way to keep the tradition going so he and his daughters can have that common experience.

[@bothellkenmore]

I appreciate his investing in the NWSL and promoting them on The Tonight Show.

[@robertojunior2901]

Eli is just so funny glad he has his own show.

[@pango-y8j]

I've always enjoyed Eli Manning he crushed it tonight wow I like them before I like them even more so humble self-deprecating willing to put himself out there and and very funny and yeah thank you everybody this was great I really enjoyed it

[@theoneandonlybosable]

Eli lowkey does look like Phelps.

[@distantandvague]

The greatest prank the NFL ever performed was punking Brady by losing to Eli twice in the SB. The Mannings are great people, insightful people, and passionate about football, as the game goes forward.

[@byWishing]

?..

[@ayeejaayy5848]

Yep and as the game goes forward, Brady still has more rings and is currently still playing, so he won in the end lmao

[@scruffd0g193]

Without the manning Brady would have 12 rings.

[@Drewski269]

@@ayeejaayy5848 the fact that Eli and company ended the perfect season when everyone said they didn’t even belong in the playoffs will forever be legendary his Super Bowl 42 victory ring to me is worth just about all of Brady’s other Super Bowl victories besides 28-3.

[@jonpoon3896]

[@lgator08]

“Oh Tom Brady” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I gotta check this show out

[@sorecgaming]

What a smart move by the Giants to create a show with Eli on their KZbin channel, such an easy win for them both. Probably a top three superbowl - 2007 Superbowl Champs!

[@micjam1986]

I grew up watching Eli's father Archie play football. Fast forward two of his sons are playing pro and one year Payton is the superbowl MVP and the following year Eli is super bowl MVP.. What an amazing moment for Archie. I was so happy for him.

[@cmel7841]

He crushed my fantasy football dreams for many years but his post football career has been awesome!! Manningcast is VERY funny, check out the clips on youtube if you haven't seen the show.

[@fabianmoreno1946]

The 72' dolphins thank you Eli Manning 😂🙏

[@patricklaurojr7427]

who hell would ever think Eli had this much humor in him. What a legend puts the humor to side win 2 superbowls and waits til he's retired to make US laugh. Christ I named my dog after him when he was drafted. We need more Chad powers

All the Manning brothers (and Archie) are such wits. They should do a sitcom.

technically the pats own that record dolphins played a 14 game season and won 3 post season 17-0 the pats finished a 16-0 reg season and won next 2 games so that make them 18-0. but they didn't seal deal and I'm a giants fan I love it. Here's another fun fact did you know the 72 dolphins every opponent they played in reg season didn't make the post season?

[@collegepennsylvania837]

“He was despised and rejected- a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭53:3-12‬ ‭NLT‬‬ This was written around 700 years before Jesus came into the earth, yet it describes His life perfectly. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus. He took the punishment we deserved and by putting our faith in Him we can be saved.
