People are going to shit on Arch (deservedly) but this offensive line has been horrible

[u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME → u/fuchsia_fascia]

There was pressure but it’s not like there was no time there to make a throw or roll out

[u/bretticus733 → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

And he had plenty of time to secure that ball so that he wouldn't fumble, yet he still held it out enough from him that the collision with the OL knocked the ball out.

[u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME → u/bretticus733]

Announcer just pointed out the wide open receiver right in his line of vision. He’s just not a great QB

[u/bretticus733 → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

Whichever GM picks him in the draft is going to get fired. At this point, he's had enough starts and experience that we should be routinely seeing him play like a future NFL QB, and he's playing like a CFL QB at best

[u/AnAlternator → u/bretticus733]

It'll be interesting to see if he can manage to play his way out of the first round, or if some GM and/or owner will only care about the last name and take him anyway.

To be clear, I'm not saying he deserves to be picked in the first - he doesn't - but I think it might happen anyway.

[u/bretticus733 → u/AnAlternator]

Any serious NFL scout, coach, and GM shouldn't be giving him a first round grade. He definitely has R1 tools, and you see it from time to time, but the problem is you only see it like 5% of the time and he looks awful the other 95% of the time. This is a project QB that you pick on Day 2 at best

[u/MadDog1981 → u/bretticus733]

At least he should look competent. There have been a lot of good NFL QBs that were not spectacular in college. But he’s outright just bad. 

[u/binzoma → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

he also doesnt seem to have a sense for where pressure is likely to come, or much of an internal clock

he gets surprised by a largely unblocked rusher multiple times a game

[u/ManiacalComet40 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

They had five guys blocking seven. It’s the QB’s job to get the ball out.

[u/MadDog1981 → u/ManiacalComet40]

At least protect the ball. 

[u/dptraynor → u/fuchsia_fascia]

They rushed 7. Someone’s open. Throw the ball. 

[u/CPTIroc → u/dptraynor]

Yup you can see the open WR running and out to the sideline on top.

[u/Advanced_Special → u/CPTIroc]

Yup that should've been his primary read after recognizing the blitz, and he should've thrown it early before the receiver broke. He's just ass, my dude

[u/CPTIroc → u/Advanced_Special]

If he goes pro I hope he doesn’t get drafted top 10 because that pressure will destroy any opportunity at proper development.

[u/FightOnForUsc → u/dptraynor]

They only rushed 6

[u/Good_Yesterday6273 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Manning should have declared last year. His stock is falling faster than Enron

[u/Lifted_Cube_2413 → u/Good_Yesterday6273]

The recruiting services giving him an 100 as a recruit should be as much of a scandal as Enron 

[u/Nearby_Valuable_5467 → u/Lifted_Cube_2413]

For a guy whose high school experience was in a Louisiana private Christian league

[u/midcityborn → u/Nearby_Valuable_5467]

Peyton and Eli played in the same league

[u/Opulent-tortoise → u/midcityborn]

The level of high school play in 1990 was WAY different than today

[u/Opulent-tortoise → u/Lifted_Cube_2413]

To be fair he looked like a 100 playing against those 5’8 rural Louisiana CBs and D lines

[u/The_Fluffy_Robot → u/Good_Yesterday6273]

Lehman Brothers in shambles

[u/NYtoJers → u/Good_Yesterday6273]

they'll still dickride him tho, that last name is doing a lot of heavy lifting

[u/ButtonedEye41 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Its a 7 man blitz and he even still had some time. That's all on Arch. Throw the ball.

[u/brightcoconut097 → u/ButtonedEye41]

Correct.

[u/RontoWraps → u/ButtonedEye41]

73 didn’t need to help block the nose tackle though. There was 2 on the NT and the MLB just waltzed on in. It seems like the center would have been fine on his own.

[u/MattBe92 → u/ButtonedEye41]

You can see that #3 Mosley is open.

[u/S0ggylemonz → u/ButtonedEye41]

I love when people couch qb and are wrong. Where is this 7 man blitz?

[u/InternationalCoat891 → u/S0ggylemonz]

I mean it's a 6 man blitz dude, he barely miscounted and his point stands

[u/S0ggylemonz → u/InternationalCoat891]

Sure but its hilarious that people comment on what the qb should’ve done when they can’t even identify the blitz properly from a replayable video

[u/SaltyTurdLicker → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Yes the line has been bad but Arch also isn’t just taking the throws the defense is giving him. He keeps looking for the bigger plays and holds the ball too much knowing the line play isn’t good.

[u/Erosun → u/fuchsia_fascia]

He’s got one of the best OL in college. He’s just terrible at making quick reads and also layering throws.

I kinda thought Texas run game would be a lot better but Arch has not help the team be balanced at all.

I’ve said it in a few spots, but Sark has been coaching this kid way to soft.

[u/Narrow-Paramedic4051 → u/Erosun]

Can't make a fast read, zero touch on the ball, holds the ball too long, and look how shit he is throwing left (Source is On3). Calling that nepo average is a compliment.

• Outside the left hash: 44% accuracy, 58% adjusted completion, 27% uncatchable.
• All other throws: 57% accuracy, 69% adjusted completion, 22% uncatchable.

[u/Stunning-Show127 → u/Erosun]

I don’t believe the offensive line at Texas is good, but everything you said about Arch is true. He has the physical attributes but not the rest of it.

[u/Erosun → u/Stunning-Show127]

If he was playing better his OL would also grade out better.

QB and OL grades are tied to each other. Not saying it’s end all be all, but there’s a ton of first round talent on that line.

[u/Stunning-Show127 → u/Erosun]

The Texas line has been dreadful the past couple of years. Ewers was running for his life too. They look better this year than the previous years.

On the entire Texas roster there is so much talent, way too much talent to perform like this :(

[u/Advanced_Special → u/Stunning-Show127]

Getting dragged down by poor qb play. This offense would light it up with Quinn

[u/Stunning-Show127 → u/Advanced_Special]

No, we wouldn’t. Quinn struggled when he didn’t have enough time.

[u/Kdot32 → u/Erosun]

He tries to run and has no vision. Hes just “fast” for no reason

[u/smurf-vett → u/Erosun]

Center is actually ass

[u/No-Owl-6246 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

They ran a delayed blitz and he got sacked by one of the delayed blitzes. This is on Arch.

[u/Legitimate-Low2363 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Terrible take. Can’t make the most basic throws.

[u/FlaGator → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Our pass rush turned up the heat the last two drives 

[u/TitaniumC4206 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

What the hell is Goosby doing?

[u/Zyoj → u/TitaniumC4206]

Is Goosby #74? If so doing his best Cam Newton impression with a bit of improv at the end to try to save his ass

[u/500rockin → u/fuchsia_fascia]

They haven’t been great, but he had throws open he could have made instead.

[u/DryDiscipline2001 → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Who is upvoting this shit? Exclusively Texas fans and the Manning family?

[u/theycallmeryan → u/fuchsia_fascia]

Our secondary is ass so we started blitzing and daring Arch to beat us. He couldn't. Horrible body language, completely folded.
