Eli Manning says Tom Brady’s Super Bowl defeats to the Giants “still bother him”

Quarterback Tom Brady will play in his 10th Super Bowl when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers face the Kansas City Chiefs at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa on February 7.

Brady already has six Super Bowl titles – with a chance for a seventh ring – but to this day he is bitter about his defeats to Eli Manning and the New York Giants.

Manning and the Giants came out with wins over the New England Patriots in Super Bowls XLII and XLVI, but the big game when the Giants achieved an unlikely victory over the unbeaten Patriots, is the one that Manning always mentions to Brady when they see each other.

“I have been with Tom several times and have never mentioned a Super Bowl or our games against them,” Manning told the New York Post. “In fact, he brings it up. It still bothers him a little bit, especially in 2007, when they had the chance to become the greatest team of all time.”

Even though Manning defeated Brady twice in the Super Bowl, he is still impressed by his career and what he did in his first season with the Buccaneers.

“Going to a new team, new city, new state during a pandemic, where you have a low season and different rules and kind of get the same results … at 43, yes, it is so impressive,” said Manning. “It was hard to think that it would be possible. He obviously has a special demeanor and a special ability to make the guys come together around him.”
