Eli Manning Leads NY Giants
Eli Manning did not look particularly overjoyed on Sunday night after one of the final big plays of Super Bowl 50 that essentially secured his older brother, quarterback Peyton Manning, and the Denver Broncos a victory over the Carolina Panthers.
Peyton scored a two-point conversion late in the fourth quarter to give the Broncos a 24-10 lead, after which the camera cut to the Manning family’s reaction. Both parents, NFL legend Archie Manning and Olivia Manning, cheered enthusiastically, as did their other son Cooper Manning.
But Eli simply appeared dazed, confused and bored, and gave his mother an insincere-looking high-five. Clearly, the Giants QB looked disappointed, as if he was going to have to endure his family’s incessant reminder of this day. Twitter immediately blew up with vines and reactions.
The win marked Peyton’s second Super Bowl title, which ties him with Eli. Rumors have recently arisen with regards to Peyton’s possible imminent retirement.
