Arch Manning is a Bust Thread

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

he isnt the worst qb ever or anything, but considering how big his hype was JUST OFF HIS NAME its understandable that media will lean into that side now

he hasnt shown anything special in terms of skill besides solid mobility and decent arm...to be touted this top level qb and a qb NFL teams will fight over to get....hes barely a mid college qb as of now. can he improve, absolutely. but that hype was completely unwarranted


my question is what did this hype generate from besides his last name and his family history ? I never got it. I remember looking at his tape before this year and not seeing it

his pocket awareness is pretty ass, he struggles to hit layered throws, accuracy is not good past 10 yards, he dirts many balls to receivers, his footwork is ehh, he bails on clean pockets too much and relies on his mobility (which wont work at the next level anyway), his decision making is not great as he throws into double coverage or to receivers who dont have the correct leverage...

and dont get me started on his arm slot action


and its like, what does he actually do WELL to be considered a heisman candidate or a #1 overall NFL draft pick ?

Is it arm talent, lack of confidence, lack of experience against good competition, mental processing....or all of the above?

If he was Arch Jackson, he'd end up at a middling school where he could develop in the shadows and shine when ready.

He's got tools but people expecting him to be like Peyton was at the same age are going to be disappointed. Doesn't help that this Texas team ain't as good as what they had recently (that OL, Golden, Mitchell, Blue, Worthy etc). Even with a healthy Ewers, they would have taken a step back.

He's got the rest of the season to figure shyt out.

It’s been 5 games yea the hype was overblown and stupid but the people over exaggerating his struggles are just as bad

But @Silkk told us we had the "new Peyton Manning" on our hands before the season started?

Lil embellishing never hurt nobody

Your pessimism with Arch is weird considering that yall have actually seen how he looks when he's in as the starter. And a lot of people would argue he looked better than Quinn last season.

You did say he looked better than Quinn last year tho which I don't understand how you came to that conclusion

Arch had one job - bring more boosters to Texas football. Mission accomplished.

Arch so bad the Saints started winning games to avoid getting the number 1 pick

A lot of people also argued you can’t be National Champions without beating your rival or winning your conference
