Longhorns Daily News: Who is Texas QB Arch Manning modeling his game after right now?

Plus: Arch Manning is all the rage in talking head circles

Starting Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning was, as most of us might have suspected, in attendance at his family’s annual Manning Passing Academy in Thibodaux, Louisiana. At the event, Manning was asked which current NFL quarterback he’s watching film on and, as a result, working to learn from as he assumes Texas’ starting role.

“I’m watching a lot of Josh Allen and Joe Burrow right now. Those are my guys,” Manning said, according to a recent report in Men’s Journal. “They’re dogs. I’ve watched some of their college film. They’re just good players, elite competitors and fun to watch.”

Why Allen and Burrow?

“[Allen’s] just the ultimate football player. If something’s not there, he’s going to make something happen and do whatever he can to make his team win,” Manning reportedly said.
