Peyton Manning reveals different approach to winning the 2025 Pro Bowl: This is his bold new strategy
The brotherly rivalry is heating up and the elder Manning is tired of losing to his younger brother Eli, so Peyton has shared his new strategy with social media.
The 2025 Pro Bowl is underway after Thursday’s skill events took place in Orlando. The 7-on-7 flag football game on Sunday will be the highlight of the weekend in Florida and the Peyton brother are going to face off again in the AFC vs NFC battle.
The Manning family is competitive to say the least. NFL QB Archie Manning raised two of the best quarterbacks in NFL history and both love to win. Football’s “royal family” will face off on Sunday in Orlando as Peyton will lead the AFC squad and his younger brother Eli will coach the NFC squad. Eli is looking to three-peat and Peyton is pulling out all of the stops to make sure that doesn’t happen: “Would I like to beat Eli in this Pro Bowl? Very much so. He’s 2 and 0,” he said on the Pat McAfee show. “He’s talking about a three-peat. That’s annoying, it’s offensive.”
So, what is Peyton Manning’s new strategy?
Drinking beer. Yep, that’s right. And he’s doing it with San Francisco 49ers’ star TE George Kittle.
“I’m afraid if I don’t win, they’ll fire me and I won’t get to come back,” he told McAfee. “Did I have 10 Bud Lights with George Kittle last night? Yes I did, but I’m still studying film and putting together a good game plan.”

He went on to explain that the previous two years’ work plan wasn’t successful and changes need to be made: “The past two years of going to bed early and watching film, that’s out the window,” he joked. “Bud Lights with Kittle, I think that’ll be my winning edge this year.”
