Yeah, he didn't play well today.

Weird comment out of the blue. LOL

You were telling me King was the best QB in the ACC / in America in this very thread.

You're shitting on Arch Manning, who is ten times the QB Haynes King is.  Just wondering why you didn't trash Haynes King all afternoon, when he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn when it counted.

Arch "Riley Leonard" Manning

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.

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.

And 10 times out of 10 you'd be an unemployed Head Coach or General Manager.  But it would be fun to watch Taysom Hill v.2.0 play QB for you, when he should be playing TE or RB.

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.

I'm not talking about the NFL either.  I'm talking any level. 

Other than Navy, Army and Air Force, there is literally not a single coach or GM who would agree with your assessment. 

Haynes King is a RB dressed up as a QB.  He's lucky he goes to a school where their history is the nonsensical wishbone, option bullshit. 

Arch Manning is (currently) a below average QB (given his name), who is still a way better QB than Haynes King will ever be.  At any level.

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.

Wife? I'm not stupid enough to sign up for giving someone half my poo when I'm tired of her.

But if I was married, I would certainly hope my wife picked a Manning (any Manning) over a shitty version of Haynes King.

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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      That doesn't void his contract
