Arch is everything I've been saying for the last 3 years. Garbage.
Did you watch any of the Texas-OU game? 21-27. He was very good. No one could live up to the hype that was raised preseason, but he is not garbage.
He's only garbage to the sunshine pumping homers on this site. This is his first year to start, which shows. He's probably going to turn out to be pretty good.
NO, HE WON'T; he'll be comparable to Eli.
HOWEVER, as a NFL GM, I'd still draft him because while the Manning kids never experienced the ultimate collegiate success (Natty &/or Heisman), they've shown an ability to do well in the NFL.
So, stop your goaltending; you may have a crush on Arch, & that's fine, but your justification should be what he will do in the NFL rather his 3 years in t.u.'s system thus far.
I have no clue if Arch will ever make it in the NFL. But right now, that doesn't look very likely. However, I'm not sure what your comparison to Eli was trying to do. Eli played for a very meh Ole Miss team and led them to their best season by far in years his senior year. Arch went into a situation where he was starting for a team coming off the playoffs and ranked #1 preseason. Granted, sip was way overrated. But Eli put up big numbers for a bad Ole Miss team most of his career.
