Recently, Tom Terrific opened up his mind about the famous show to Kenan Thompson, the longest-running cast member. Talking at the ‘Let’s Go!’ podcast, Brady said Manning did a better job while hosting the show. However, he added he will also try to improve if he gets a second chance. “Peyton, I think went on after me,” Brady said of his original hosting in 2005, “And he actually did better than me, so at some point, I have to go in and try to redeem myself, you know, I got to get my last licks! Cuz Peyton was great.” However, NFL fans have a better suggestion. They may love to see the duo entertain them together.
