This 100%! There were moments Saturday where he looked really good but then had long stretches where he looked like a D3 QB. He has been WAY overhyped and needs a lot of improvement to be anywhere close to matching his hype.

They are undefeated with lots of great athletes.

Their 9th rated QB in the league isn't carrying that team.

He’s incredibly average. And if you think anything other than that you have zero ball knowledge

Arch Manning is not a good quarterback.

I will continue to say it because it's the truth.

No. You LSU pussies don't like him because no Mannings ever went to LSU

NFL hall of famer.
Are you just mad because you know he’s incredibly average? Please give me one individual stat he has that’s above average

The talent around him was also objectively better than what Manning has at Texas. He took snaps from behind one of the best OLs in SEC history, handed the ball off to three different players who eclipsed 1,000 yards, threw to one of the top three WRs in school history, and had a dominant defense to get him the ball back when the offense stalled.

I love me some AJ, but let’s not act like he was a game breaker in the same mold as our later QBs in the Saban Era.


I have no idea why you brought up AJ McCarron based on anything you just said. Are we supposed to feel sorry for Manning cause he doesn't have as much talent as 2011-12 BAMA? They have a lot more talent than Tennessee and most everyone else on their schedule, and have been. He goes away for quarters, and he holds the ball far too long. You can't see that he's not reading the field?

AJ was in the pro-set, and Coach Saban wanted him to hand the ball off and throw play-action and then play defense. AJ was a gunslinger at heart when he came out of Mobile. Coach Saban had to coach it out of him. Think about Miss State his freshman year. I think he would love to sling it in these wide-open offenses. Arch Manning comparison ain't cutting it here.

Texas is winning with defense not with Arch.

Arch is above average

so in other words, you've never played, but you tell others that they don't know anything

he's the starting QB for the number one team in America

now what?

That was the run game. AJ was actually struggling. Threw an INT. Almost threw another. Fumbled a few times. Maybe you don’t remember, but Bama went extremely run heavy from a certain point onwards. One of the reasons that TD pass worked was because Bama had ran the ball 14/16 plays prior to that with the 2 remote passes being 1-2 yard dump offs.

That being said, he’s got better fundamentals than Arch. Arch relies on his raw talent which is the exact opposite of what you’d expect with the nearly lifelong coaching he’s had

He’s streaky… he’s a good/decent QB but not great imo. And obviously hasn’t come close to living up to the hype.

So Arch’s QB is closer to Marcel Reed’s right now than Chambliss’ and Chamnliss is 4th in the league.

Hahah you might be the cringiest poster in this site. Playing D3 backup kicker doesn’t count as playing cfb. But anyway that’s not a stat you turd. You would know that if you had any ball knowledge at all

Arch was never going to live up to the mountain of hype heaped upon his shoulders- which isn't hardly fair to the kid, IMHO. I think he's a solid QB, but the expectations of what he was (and is) asked to live up to are damn near impossible to meet.

Even at his young age, I believe he can relate to Kalen DeBoer's situation in that nothing he does will ever be "good enough" in the eyes of many.



This concludes my semi-sympathetic take.

He's going to find out when he plays better defenses like Florida and LSU. That's two losses right there.
