Finebaum just turned on young Manning.

Who would want to take millions to sit on the bench and watch games for 2 years. Maybe the hype has been too much for him.

I'll make my judgement on the young Manning at season's end. He's a raw freshman just barely scratching any SEC experience.

He's a freaking junior with 3 years in the program.
Doesn't matter, he has practically ZERO game experience coming into this season. Big difference in being the starting QB and the practice squad QB.

All this means is that Manning is about to figure it out.
I have no doubt he's better than he's shown the first 3 games and will have it figured out by the time they play us. But I do think he's pretty overrated.

Finebaum wants so badly for one of the elder Mannings to snap back at him. He has made a very good living on “nuh uhh!! Yea huh!! Nuh Uhh!!! Yea huh!!!” and he clamors for more.

I’ve heard from a guy on the medical staff of a high profile team (been doing this job 20 years), that these last couple of years a lot of the big nil guys WANT to be injured so they have an excuse not to play. I know, hard to believe if you give teenagers a lot of money some will lose motivation…

I admit I haven't watched much of any Texas game. However when I have switched it on I saw Manning miss receivers by yards on some passes. I would say at this point he has accuracy issues. I know he missed 10 in a row this last game. That is something hard to improve on.

You don't have to be a teenager. Just sayin.
