00:00They have the guy, the top Heisman odds front runner, the favorite for the award, the great Arch Manning, finally going to get his chance to shine.
00:12He has barely played so far.
00:14In fact, he's going to tell you that right here.
00:16What does he think of all the Heisman hype that he has gotten?
00:20I'm not really in the business of this going to sound mean, but like caring what other people think.
00:24But, you know, I'm grateful that you all think that.
00:27But I've only played, what, two games, so I've got a lot to prove.
00:31But, yeah, I'm ready to play, though.
00:33I'm trying to walk the walk and do the work and then, you know, correct if I need to.
00:38But I feel like you have to have a good relationship with everyone before you try and lead.
00:42So that's what I've tried to build over the past two years, and then now I've been more of a vocal leader.
00:46I think I have really good friends, good family to keep me grounded, keep me honest.
00:50Whenever I'm acting like a turd, they tell me.
00:52So I think that's good to have those people around you for sure.
00:55Yeah, we were playing golf the other day, and I, like, complimented my own shot.
00:59And they're like, what the hell is wrong with you?
01:01Listen, he's got his, you know, grandpa, his dad, his uncles.
01:08They all can teach him about what it's going to be like to be an NFL quarterback because that's where he's going.
01:15None of this matters right now.
01:16His future is in the NFL without a doubt, and we don't know if it's going to be in the Pittsburgh draft or if it's going to be the year after that.
01:26I'll tell you this much.
01:28In my opinion, Sarkeesian only played him when he had to.
01:32I don't think he played him because he wanted to.
01:34He had to.
01:35And so that's amazing to me because I literally, you know, I get it.
01:42Ewers earned that job, and he was their guy.
01:45Fair enough.
01:46But look at the end game for Ewers.
01:49He's like, I mean, they don't even, like, I'm surprised he got drafted.
01:53I got to be honest with you because the NFL thought nothing of him.
01:57He's like, what's it, seventh round, right?
01:59So that means you have, like, almost, what, 10% chance to make it at best?
02:06This kid, Arch Manning, will be in the first round.
02:11He'll be the first quarterback taken, and he's an amazing talent, and they never played him unless they had to.
02:19So I have my druthers about his decision-making, to be honest with you.
02:23I would have played that kid over the kid Ewers every Saturday.
02:27Every time the kid played, he was a badass.
02:30That's all there is to it.
02:31And then the minute that kid Ewers got back healthy, he played him again the rest of the way.
02:36And look what they got him.
02:37They lost.
02:39Yeah, he will be the first overall pick in the draft, whichever year it is.
02:44And look, unless he's a complete hack, which I don't think he's going to be, he's going to be good whenever he goes out there.
