obviously they're brothers but eli throws a football like it were a ripe tomato and cries during/after games while peyton throws balls that whistle through the air for touchdowns?

hehe i am wondering too. did u see eli vs the vikings? he sucked and almost set the record for most interceptions returned for tds. in a newspaper they cracked a joke saying that it took eli 10 hours (and 6 beers) to convince Peyton they were even distinctly related after the vikings game.
ps: i think eli is addopted(not really but it would explain y one is the second best qb and the other is going to the hall of losers)

I think it's because Eli has a smaller IQ than his brother. This means he can not change the plays before the snap like his brother does, A LOT. Eli has to rely on his coaching staff picking the right plays. Thus, he is limited as to what he does out on the field. If Eli did not have the last name and was not the brother of Peyton he would be lucky to still be 2nd string after the way his career has started.

Rumer has it that they shared vacancy in the same nut sacs.
Yeah it is evident now, pappa Manning should have pulled-
out and squirted Eli on the wall or on mamma Manning's face. But it's not to late, Eli could
save a bunch of orphans from a burning building.

Basically they're both nerds, and were both coordinated into the NFL, using papa's name. The difference is that Peyton has earned his stripes, and to his credit he never gave up. He fought through, and even used his awkwardness, to his advantage.
I'm really happy that Peyton, who I couldn't stand, has found success. He's a true role model!

Archie , their dad spent more time teaching peyton than he did eli. Plus he (Archie) was still playing for Saints as peyton grew up. while eli was growing up Archie was old and too tired to teach eli.

They are married. Peyton is the husband and Eli is the wife.
AFTER ALL HIS REAL NAME IS ELISHA MANNING.
