He would for sure start. He played many years in the NFL at a little south of 300 pounds (~280-285), but his quickness and high motor would carry him in today's game as it did in yesterdays. Wish we had a guy like him now.

Agreed. He is definitely a freak of nature but bet he has lots of injury issues because of the physics of a guy that moves like that in that long body.

Bradley was a heck of a talent but ill-suited for the offense that Royal wanted to run.

Good read echeese.

This wasn’t self inflicted wounds. This was getting beat up and down the field by a bad team’s defense.

I saw all I needed to see last game to know Arch is going to be great. That kid fought his heart out and carried his team with toughness and shear will power. I can guarantee you that if his teammates didn’t believe in him they do now.

Where am I wrong?

This is a rebuilding year, we just didn’t know it until now. Yes, we have a talented team with potential, and will get better, but we are not contenders this season. New leaders must emerge and players must further develop. Our line play has much to gain. We have some solid pieces to build on for sure. Arch Manning showed us something today. Let’s recalibrate and improve in all phases. We will be much better as the year progresses. It is what it is.

This is why I tend to try not overindulge in all the pregame prognostications from numerous sources and just watch the game and sit back and try my best to chill (often unsuccessfully). A finite amount of analysis is ok. I allow myself this site and limit that somewhat even. Must preserve the joy of the game. If we are really the best, we will prove it.

I think he only had a partial ligament tear, and the surgeon was a minimally invasive hand surgeon I suspect, so fast healing. We will be ready for him.

Kid has some wheels for second grade.

Could not agree more. He knows how to team build and coach. Love what he has done to build a formidable roster here already and I think we will begin to see the difference this season. He will only build on that moving forward. He has coached numerous conference champions and has had strong success in the dance as well. I love his experience and don’t think coaching here will be too big for him at all. He knows what he is doing. Great hire.

Gundy’s downfall can be directly attributable to cutting his mullet, (the Samson effect). Yep.

Thx Sarah. Hope the ladies bring their usual A game.
