Giants' Eli Manning has hilarious response to Tom Brady roast image

Former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning was the punchline of Will Ferrell's roast of Tom Brady during Sunday night's "Greatest Roast of All Time" on Netflix.

Ferrell, in the spirit of legendary anchorman Ron Burgundy, reminded the crowd just who gave Brady the most trouble throughout his career. He even got the crowd chanting a particular phrase that went viral.

Manning had a classic response as a reason why he did not attend the roast on Sunday night.

The rivalry between Manning and Brady is strictly on the field. Manning got the best of Brady twice on the game's biggest stage in Super Bowl XLII and XLVI, defeating him both times.

If you didn't get a chance to watch the roast, you can check out all of the most notable jokes said during the evening right here.
