Arch Manning Being "Arch"

[Jkwellborn 6713]

13m is nice.  But it ain’t 300m.  Arch can exceed that 300m.  13m is not grandkids don’t have to work money. 
 
no lock that he leaves next year.  It depends on the team with the #1 pick imo.  

I mean, if you aren’t stupid, depending on the number of kids, yeah, for $13mil you can probably get away with not working.

Has this question been asked? This situation can arise anytime you have two Stellar QBs. A little mind exercise.

I think it's a good bet Quinn starts against OU. If I'm wrong, missed some news, whatever, skip to next comment. But let's say he starts and looks like a QB who hasn't started a game in a month. Timing's off. Throws a couple of pics, takes a few sacks - just a possible scenario, mind you, and the Horns just can't seem to get on track. After two and a half quarters, the offense has put up ten or so points, and OU has a 14pt lead and their offense is working..,..

Should Sark, at that point, put in our budding superstar to try and change the dynamics? What if we get to the fourth quarter, Quinn's in and nothing's changed? I think Sark needs to do it.

It's not a changing of the guard, it's just a good backup QB doing what he's supposed to do. I think Quinn can handle the pressure in the weeks going forward, and I'd expect him to start again the week after OU.

Figuring out timing in the pocket is an experience thing.

I’m more concerned about whether or not the guy can consistently hit the wheel route. I’m betting routes of that nature will be a major source of focus for him over time. I don’t think there’s anyone better on those types of touch passes than Ewers and it’s a major part of Sarkisian’s offensive structure. Flats, outs and wheels, all with the target moving away the ball rapidly. 

The wheel route on Saturday seemed like a definite throw away to me. There was an unblocked blitzer and Blue wasn't open. 

The swing pass to Wingo was probably his worst throw of the day. Backwards laterals are a huge no-no. Like that thing was two yards off where it should have been. He was actually really good at those throws in high school so I'm a bit surprised that's where his struggles are now. He'll get it figured out though.

Do you think Arch and his family would feel more disrespected if Quinn struggled and Arch doesn't get a chance, or if Quinn plays well and Arch doesn't get garbage time snaps?

Yeah, the thing that Mac Jones was really good with in college was accuracy/timing on wheels and screens. He was deadly at those. With the talent Bama had, it's no wonder he looked really good. But you could always see he didn't really have a strong arm, he wasn't NFL caliber.

 

I think Ewers is just as good as Jones was at the short stuff, with the bonus of having a bigger arm and better throwing downfield. The only thing that makes him suspect is the fact that he gets injured every year. This latest injury was especially soft.

Either way it won't be a rash decision.  But I don't think 25 starts is a msut have.

Quinn has talked about seeing statistics showing the high correlation between having at least 25 college starts and success in the NFL.  It's a big reason he decided to come back this year.

I think there is a near-zero chance the Manning family is not aware of that data.

It was asked a couple of years ago and Sarkisian’s answer was that he never considered pulling Ewers. 

Happy to help. 

[Irish Wrist Watch 1393]

Wrong. I think Ewers is the right call to start the game, and stay the starter the following month even if he has a bad game in Dallas. And I think he'll probably have a good game, but if for some reason the layoff and or his injury have taken a toll and make a victory over OU look doubtful, I think you gotta give Manning a shot at pulling it out. I don't give a fuck what happened two years ago. This is about where we are right now. We need to do whatever it takes to win every game.

Sark doesn't need to worry about boosting Ewers ego. He's headed for the NFL and a big payday. His decision after two and a half or three quarters needs to be what is gonna work to get us the win, not some knee-jerk spur of the moment decision, like taking points off the board for a fourth and three.

And if the team is hurting at that point, he should be willing to try a fix at QB. If it doesn't work, he can put Ewers back in.

This is just a mental exercise. Tough for a couple of you who can only hurl insults, but it's a legitimate question. Let's hope we never have to ask it during a big game.

Then don’t ask whether the question has ever been asked if you’re going to say you don’t give a fuck about the answer to the question when it was, in fact, asked. 

Sarkisian also doesn’t need to worry about satisfying you. If he thinks pulling Ewers is the better answer for the team long term, I’m sure he’ll do it. If not, then not. What is it, exactly, you’re looking for other than agreement, here?

I'm pretty sure their o-line is ass and they will struggle to move the ball on us.  I'm also pretty sure Venables is gonna go bat-shit crazy with shallow agressive DBs and Ewers will pick them apart.  Texas by 17.

He’s got NIL deals now. He’s making 7 figures. Have no illusions about the PR of autographed card revenue going to charity, there’s plenty going into the account for other efforts these days. 

This is an accurate post.

 

 

Cooper Manning has holdings that far exceed the public estimations. They all do and they’ve supposedly gone in together through family office stuff on numerous RE and PE investments. All of their kids and grandkids and their grandkids are set. 

The reality is that there is always more money to be made when people and entities are throwing new money-making opportunities at you. Sure. But that is also true as the starting QB at Texas. Arch Manning is going to make 1st round QB money or better each and every year he remains the starter at Texas. I think he’s going to be the first non-Livy Dunne 8 figure NIL per year earner without any support for that from TOF or other booster support. We’ll see, but it wouldn’t be a crazy jump from here. 

Mannings love endorsement money and are really good at cashing in. I’ve been saying Arch will make $10M in 26 if he’s starting st Texas- I think it’s almost a no doubter st this point. 
now- that’s not 1/1 overall money but it’s plenty enough to make staying a no brainer if you want to stay. I can’t imagine he won’t want to stay unless whoever got 1/1 was somehow just a perfect and ideal situation for him, and even then he probably is like 98% likely to stay.

[Gordon Shumway 452]

Just wildly speculating whether Arch becomes the first $100 million dollar a year quarterback in the NFL.  If he continues on his current path he will be drafted in 2026 or 2027 meaning his second contract will be for 2030 or 2031.  With the way QB contracts are escalating would someone like Jayden Daniels already get there, or would it be someone in the Arch's class or later be the first to $100 million?  

 

Edited to highlight that i am wildly speculating.  More of an exercise in QB salary using Arch as an example.

The NFL is going to have to remove qb salaries from the salary cap or something else drastic before that point.

All this talk about the Manning family net worth seems to ignore the fact that the overwhelming majority of it is likely in Peyton and Eli Manning's estates.  I'm sure Cooper is doing fine, as well as Archie, but Arch has two siblings.  Maybe Peyton and Eli plan on distributing their wealth to their neices and nephews, I wouldn't know, but NIL and draft money are probably going to be what sets Arch up for the future.

 

Estimates say Arch Manning, before hitting 20 years old, has made over $3 million at Texas as just the back up. Not Archie, not Peyton, not Eli, Arch. Put that shit into a safe, stable investment, and Arch is already set for the rest of his life. He is already, by himself, a multi-millionaire.

Quinn is definitely the guy. Arch will have his time in the next few years and there is nothing wrong with that. Do I feel comfortable with him as our backup? Sure.

Milroe was fantastic vs. UGA and deserves the flowers. 

It's funny to look back after the Texas-Bama game last year. Tide fans were furious about Milroe's performance, and Saban started Tyler Buchner (!) the following week.  I didn't think Milroe played that bad vs. Texas, made some costly mistakes but overall flashed enough to see the potential. I was also impressed with his demeanor on the field. Happy that the kid fought through that adversity.
