This sidearm Uncle Rico poo just is not it. How does a Manning have such a good awful throwing motion?

Guess that’s how you know he is Cooper’s son.  And the others are his uncles

Holy sh-t!!! 😄

I give credit to Manning that he even got that pass off. That's not a bad start.

I saw at least three potential 3rd or 4th down conversions get knocked down by Texas pass catchers today too, they deff don't have the weapons they did last year.

Oh well, kinda fun. Maybe a rematch later in the year. Too much hype for anyone to live up to. 

That was way more than "kinda fun" to me 😄

Admittedly, I am not an Ohio State fan so seeing them lose would have been more fun.

I do kinda like this Sayin kid. Gonna keep an eye on him.

Arch definitely needs 2 full years way too raw as I can see it now. You can see the throwing power and occasional beautiful throws but he's way too erratic overall with his accuracy. 

Texas also lost quite a few big names to the draft as well. Feels like it's going to be a learning season for Arch

His right tackle (Brandon Baker, was it?) had a couple of critical penalties.

    • This season is about two things that impact the Ws and Ls 1. Can Young be, or ever  be, a top 15 qb 2. Can Evero be a decent DC  my personal feeling is time may be up for one and the other’s time should’ve been up before season start  regardless of my personal feels, I’m glad football is back and hope to be proved wrong every Sunday 
    • The point was, largely it was cool to be critical of select players all off season (XL) and not be questioned about your fandom, being negative…..but select folks react different if done to Bryce.    and if XL had an army of defenders (which he didn’t) there would be plenty of “derailment” as you say.  But people largely accepted you should be able to be critical of XL. Therefore the good and bad were BOTH largely accepted convo.  I have no clue about your joke analogy.  Racist jokes suck.  Jokes about race can be funny.  I do know some people view it all as the same thing. 
    • I am not sure that would necessarily hold up to a large data sample and some in depth analysis. It's certainly an interesting theory.  IMO(anecdotally), the better backups are usually older backups that were above average NFL starters for long periods of time. That and just guys that are always fringe bottom third starter, top third backups. Flacco, Dalton are current examples of the former. I think guys like Tyrod Taylor and Jacoby Brissett are good examples of the latter.  The issue with Lance/Richardson/Wilson is that they were ultimately big busts. So you have to bank on them being the type of player that can handle that, battle back and make a decent NFL career. I am not sure I would say that is the majority of those type of players. Winston is just a different thing. He is an old school gunslinger that is pretty inflexible when it comes to playing style. If you don't have an old school offense tailored to a Brett Favre type gunslinger AND have a defense elite enough to win when he is turning the ball over like gangbusters.....it's tough for him to consistently win games. It will be damn fun to watch but the W's are gonna be rare.
