The Arch Holly Rowe thing would actually make me question him if I'm an NFL team (m)

This is aside from any talent/production questions.

Bluntly: how the fuck does Arch Manning, of all people, make that kind of unforced error? He looked like a 13 year old from a town of 300 people to think that AI video was funny.

You've been famous for at least 5 years, if not your whole life, and come from football's royal family. Quarterbacks are corporations these days. How will you lead an NFL team if that is the image you present?

Hasn't he had enough media training or just experience around other human beings to avoid that? Even if you thought the video was funny, how do you not have the social sense and basic IQ to think, yeah, maybe I shouldn't mention this out loud, especially in a news conference.

Back to the board

- This is especially true given this is the same mistake made in the USA Hockey locker room. A reporter sets you up for a mysoginist comment- do not spike that ball. That blunder should have been his pr 101 training.* - By Josh September 17, 2026 at 01:13:07 PM

    - UT people I know that come in contact with him say he is different, almost like he is on the spectrum.* - By MasterBates September 17, 2026 at 01:17:13 PM
      - Yes, and I think the NFL evaluation on that aspect will be interesting* - By MikeMeltser September 17, 2026 at 01:25:09 PM
- Peyton mooned a female athletic trainer.* - By MasterBates September 17, 2026 at 12:35:53 PM

    - May have wipes his balls on her, I forget the details.* - By MasterBates September 17, 2026 at 12:51:20 PM
      - Yeah, he fully teabagged her. (nm) - By GritsGoBlue September 17, 2026 at 01:10:09 PM
        
        Then the asshole Mannings tried to discredit her and made her life hell. Big phonies.* - By MasterBates September 17, 2026 at 01:13:44 PM
        
        Yup. - By GritsGoBlue September 17, 2026 at 01:35:58 PM
        
        I have two second hand data points to point to them being assholes.............. - By MasterBates September 17, 2026 at 01:39:28 PM
- Arch did something dumb, and apologized. No NFL team is deciding to draft or not draft him based on his reaction to that fake video* - By ajs September 17, 2026 at 12:33:09 PM
  - Shiela Ford Hamp or Neeru Khosla might not take him, but Robert Kraft definitely would.* - By rkm September 17, 2026 at 12:41:17 PM
