Archie was unbelievably talented but he had a horrific offensive line and very few capable receivers during his career. With the Saints he finished at 0.500 only once; all other seasons featured losing records.
Jack Youngblood, a defensive lineman for the Rams, admitted he and others didn’t tackle Archie as hard as they could because he was so lightly protected. They tackled him and sacked him but they didn’t hit him hard.
If Archie Manning had been on almost any other team he would be wearing multiple Super Bowl rings.
Ma, tu scherzi?
Archie Manning is one of the worst QBs of all time; I don't care how bad your supporting cast is, if you have a season TD/INT ratio of 7/20, IN THE PRIME OF YOUR CAREER, you are garbage.
He had *2* seasons out of 13, with more TDs than picks. As terrible as Namath and Starr were, they ran circles around Manning
Now as a runner, he was a decent QB. But the comparison of Burrow to Manning is BEYOND laughable.
Coraggio.
