WATCH: Ex-Giants QB Eli Manning brutally roasts Tom Brady over his GOAT status
Tom Brady is 0-2 against Eli Manning in the Super Bowl.
Eli Manning might not have had a Hall of Fame career as an NFL player, but this one incident alone should be enough to change that and render him eligible. The former New York Giants QB is enjoying post-retirement life as he was chosen to coach the NFC in the Pro Bowl game.
In addition to battling his brother Peyton, who was coaching the AFC team, Eli got himself into a rap battle with Supa Hot Fire, a YouTube star whose real name is DeShawn Raw.
The mere thought of Eli Manning at a rap battle is odd to process, and he did get destroyed, which was not surprising. Manning might’ve lost the rap battle, but he won the war as Eazy E (Eli’s rap moniker) took a brutal shot at Tom Brady. He dropped a pretty tough bar that would have definitely hurt Brady’s feelings.
I'm Eli Manning, I'm nice. Tom Brady's the GOAT, sike! I beat him twice!
The GOAT caught a stray on Pro Bowl weekend. While Tom Brady may have beaten Peyton Manning on numerous occasions, Eli Manning will be the only person to go down in NFL history as Brady’s kryptonite in the Super Bowl. The Giants, led by him, defeated the Patriots on two separate occasions in the big game.

In Super Bowl XLII, the Giants beat Brady and Co. 17-14 putting a bitter end to the Patriots’ perfect season where they went undefeated. Then, just four years down the road, the two teams met again in Super Bowl XLVI, and once again, Eli Manning had Tom Brady’s number as he managed to lead the Giants to a 21-17 victory.

It is safe to say that Eli Manning is not going to let that flex go anytime soon, and rightfully so. After all, he has managed to achieve a feat that less than a handful of people in the NFL have ever achieved.
The rap battle was entertaining and one of the highlights of this year’s Pro Bowl festivities. The legendary QB began his initial verse by referencing his two rings.

Oddly enough, he received a penalty in the next round for “roughing the rapper” after he touched his opponent. This was an obvious jibe at the NFL’s officiating this season and flags being levied on defensive players for doing their job. As part of the penalty, Manning had to stand 15 yards away from his opponent and participate.
