It's about his playing style. I pointed all this put leading up to the draft. He'd usually take the snap from shotgun at Bama and immediately drop back another 5+ yards after that and then just kinda freewheel standing square to the LOS surveying the field. That can't world at the NFL for several reasons. 1) you can't create a picket that deep at the NFL level. NFL edge rushers are too good. 2) Standing square to the LOS like Bryce did now once you see where you want to throw, you have to flip your hips to get in position to deliver the throw. That means both your receiver needs to be wide open and you need ample protection. Not happening in the NFL. 3) On all of his deep throws he needed to be able to step up and through the throw to generate power. That rarely happens in the NFL. It happened recently against Atlanta and he played great but that type if time and room to operate just rarely happens on Sundays. Bryce was IMO always a prototypical great college player who just doesn't translate to the NFL from a talent and stylistic perspective. I don't know how he fooled football people into thinking otherwise.

LOL I just think it's funny how much you hate a pretty likeable player. Yeah, Arch has a much higher talent ceiling but he's doing less with a lot better surrounding talent. If I had to win a college game tomorrow and was picking between Haynes or Arch I'm taking Haynes all day everyday. He's not a great passer, but he's honestly a considerably better passer than Arch right now and he's the tougher runner. It's an easy call.

Not a Cali kid, he just went to Stanford. He was born and raised in Colorado.

Sorry he banged your wife and all but he's still a better college QB right now than Arch and doing more with a lot less supporting cast.

I'm not talking about the NFL. I'm talking about college. I wouldn't spend a draft pick on either one of them in '26.

Terrible red zone decision from Reed ends this one.

Because I wasn't watching that game and yeah, I'd take Haynes King 10 times put of 10 over the current version of Arch. I've never said he's the best QB in the country, I've said he's the best QB in the ACC. Because he is. That's not a screaming endorsement for ACC QBs. But yeah, I like the dude. He plays his ass off.

He slid in the first half on one run where he could've gotten more yardage and I told my buddy "if I'm the Texas coach I'm telling Arch you're not a slider, when you run I need you getting ever yard you can". I don't think he's slid since. When you suck at throwing you better not be sliding.

Yeah, he didn't play well today. Weird comment out of the blue. LOL

Doesn't really change anything other than legitimately get Texas in the playoff conversation and TAMU a bye week by missing the SEC CG. Not a fan of either of those thing so I'm hoping TAMU pulls it off.

His second half numbers are gonna look a lot better but he's still playing like ass his receivers are just getting wide ass open. I bet there wasn't a defender within 10 yards of the receiver on his TD and it still required a highlight reel catch to go get it because it was sailing out of the back up the end zone.

A lot of people were really excited about Arch Manning's big game last week against terrible Arkansas. Well, he's back to being typical Arch again tonight.

Honestly, probably so.

Jameis Winston's career INT percentage is 3.1%. Bryce isn't too far behind him at 2.6%. Winston's TD percentage is 4.8% though vs. Bryce's 3.3%.

He's tied for 6th in the league in terms of interception percentage.
