October 28Oct 28 Listened to Babers, who always has stats. Couple interesting ones Arch was over 50% on pass 20 yards and more. He is top 15 in the nation on straight drop back passing. Both stats I believe were prior to MSU game. Those numbers will be higher, as most of the damage done in the 4Q was straight drop back
October 28Oct 28 1 hour ago, BlackCat said: I think the Mannings trust Sark and are not helicopter parents. But I also very very much think they are worried about Arch taking shots, and have been worried this whole time about concussions. Well, the play where he got his bell rung he dove head first, so maybe they need to talk to Arch about that and not Sark. He does seem to slide more often than he did before, but on that play he put his head out there for the double whammy.

None of the three NFL players in his advisory circle would have done anything different in that situation…

I keep asking myself how he didn't know that 22 was going to drill him in the head and concuss him. He's such a dumb ass for not knowing this. Similar to Skattebo yesterday. If he just quit running the route he probably doesn't get hurt.

Nah fuck that it’s overtime and also sometimes the best way to protect yourself is get down by a dive forward you slide (correctly) you need to start the slide early and they only give you 6-7 yards you slide late and you get blasted even worse and the guy maybe gets penalized and kicked out of the game but you get destroyed
October 28Oct 28 He made the right decision to dive instead of slide. IMO QBs should all be taught to dive instead of sliding. When you slide you are putting trust in your opponents to layoff. If you slide and they late hit you it’s an automatic concussion with a way more severe collision to the head.

October 28Oct 28 I think Arch made a terrible decision, and it's 50/50 he'll play against Vandy. If he doesn't play, we'll lose. Really bad decision. The idea that he has a BIGGER chance of getting concussed if he slides is nuts. Surly gonna surly.

October 28Oct 28 What does that have to do with anything? If a QB starts to slide the defense is coached to back off. If they hit him anyway it's a personal foul if not targeting. The MSU guy should have gotten hit with targeting anyway.

Mobilehoma fans, those that were left in the Cotton Bowl, chanted, "GRAD-U-ATE! GRAD-U-ATE!" as Peter jogged off the field for the last time. Lulz. They said the same thing at the Disch after he blasted a HR. Dude was a dual sport baller.

He was an all-district catcher/1st-baseman at Houston Lee high school. Darrick Duke also played both sports, too, on the same Texas football/baseball teams with Gardere. Darrick was so fast he was automatic stealing bases. Peter also almost ran over my freshman roommate with his car, barreling down the hill on 21st Street from Speedway down to Memorial Stadium. Lulz.

October 28Oct 28 Are we pulling a Mateer thumb psy op with Arch. Can we announce brain surgery today. Have Arch come out in an American revolution head bandage on Saturday with a little monkey blood stain. If Arch can play and pull off the win against Diego “Marcus Aurelius” Pavia, we will erect statues in his honor and he will forever be remembered as Dominus Augustus Archibald Manning

The concussion came from the ground not from the defender As explained by the referee analyst in another game, if you lead with the helmet on a defenseless player, it's targeting no matter where on the body. Look how low the tackler has to come in to make that kind of contact. I thought it was targeting while watching. I think the refs in the booth blew it.
