Sitting forward, putting his mouth right up to the mic, and taking a very brief pause before speaking every time - that’s what makes this work. Good job, Eli!
The best part of the sketch is when Eli bends forwards towards the mic. That pause and actions makes the sketch amazing. They could have easily not done that but that kind of small details is why snl is the greatest.
He had very few lines but they had some of the most natural delivery I've ever seen on this show. Makes me wonder if part of it has to do with his love of true crime.

Hey Rexy1776. Just thought I'd add my two cents that I took your statement to be a perfectly innocent comment about something you found funny. And I don't get why so many people are giving you shit about it. So, just wanted to offer some support. People on the internet can be dicks for no reason sometimes.
i thought he did a fine job and was quite funny playing it so straight, totally fit the character. once or twice he smiled just a bit, but otherwise unbreakable.
100% agreed. Up until now I used to think he was a member of the cast because he seems like a natural to me. Only now I googled him and it turns out he's a sportsman.

Exactly!
Alex Papatonis nah eagles suck
Yes, but it was achingly uncomfortable.
Eli Manning's incredibly straight responses to the questions made this skit very funny.
He's dealt with the NY media in the most popular city and has handled it like a pro's pro. Of course Eli can keep a straight face
Lmfaoooo I swear
