I just wish and pray the wheels fall off next year so we can draft Manning

Show me a son of a HOF player that made the HOF. I think that list is very short. And he is not even the son of a HOF.
Which is why I simply do not buy into the Manning name hype
First, who said anything about Arch being a Hall of Famer? Why would I even make such a claim? :huh:
Second, the sample size of HOF players having sons who also played in the NFL is so miniscule as to not even be worthy of comparison or note.
Third, hype or not, Arch has two uncles and a grandfathers who were NFL quarterbacks and good to great ones at that. I'm pretty sure they schooled him in the game of football just like many other dads who played football have done with their sons. That may benefit Arch, it may not. But, it's not going to hurt.
What he turns out to be is for the future to decide.

frankly looking at his high school record and numbers, I am not sure he should have been a five star recruit.
HE certainly has been as well prepared as anyone for the game.
Whether that means he is going to be a star in either college or the pros is unknown
