New York Giants legend Eli Manning bested his brother, Peyton, once again, coaching the NFC to their third consecutive win at the Pro Bowl Games.
With a 56-50 flag football victory at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, the NFC wrapped up the title with an overall score of 76-63. Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff was named the 2025 MVP.
“Just another win right here at the Pro Bowl Games,” Eli said after the game. “It’s getting kind of easy now. Everybody knows the NFC is going to win every year. Still feels good, though.”

Peyton was playfully dejected as the final seconds ticked off the clock.
“The team morale is low to quite low,” Peyton said. “I’m 0-3 against (Eli) and I just have to own it.”
Led by Giants nose tackle Dexter Lawrence, the NFC defensive linemen cruised to an easy tug-of-war victory over the AFC squad.
Meanwhile, former LSU wide receivers, including the Giants’ Malik Nabers, showed up and showed out on Sunday. They combined for eight total touchdowns — one for Justin Jefferson, two for Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr., and three for Ja’Marr Chase.
On Thursday, the first day of the Pro Bowl Games competition, Lawrence finished second in the Big Spike competition behind New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams. Nabers also helped lead the NFC to an easy Relay Race victory over their All-Star counterparts.
