Cowboys Plan to Cut Dak for Arch?
Cowboys Plan to Cut Dak for Arch? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys will always face a brighter spotlight than others, but no player has faced the blinding pressure quite like Dak Prescott. Advertisement Perhaps the most scrutinized player in the NFL, Prescott is yearly tasked by fans and media with sole responsibility for the Cowboys' success. Even despite playing at an All-Pro level when fully healthy, Dak regularly is blamed and criticized when the Cowboys fail to reach the high expectations held for "America's Team". Part of this polarizing reality is Prescott's contract signed last season that pays him a league record $60 million average annual salary. It's a daunting figure to represent when you hold a 2-5 career playoff record. It commands a level of excellence that the Cowboys believe Prescott is capable of, but has yet to meet, leading to hot takes galore about his true worth and legacy in the NFL. The Cowboys, by most accounts, have had a productive offseason this year, with the roster shaping out to predict improvements from last year's 7-10 disappointment. Prescott is entering the second year of his four-year $240 million contract in 2025. Advertisement With that comes the expectations, not just for Dak, but for the entire franchise. A Super Bowl is always the goal, but let's shoot for the NFC Championship Game first ... as the Cowboys are in the midst of a nearly 30-year drought making it that far. Prescott is turning 32 this year. His realistic championship window may be closing, when fully healthy, he hasn't given us many reasons to believe he can't get the job done. Former MVP Cam Newton goes full goofball here as he believes Prescott is down to his last chance in 2025 before that window officially shuts for good. On his show, Newton issued Dak a direct warning about his future with the Cowboys. "If you do not perform this year, that [championship] door is going to close," Newton claimed. Advertisement His proposed alternative? A click-bait propagandist's dream. "And in come, drumroll please ... Arch Manning." "If you don't go to that NFC Championship this year," Newton continues to Prescott, "This is your career, bro." Cam's theory of "Jerry Jones spending everything" on the Texas quarterback prodigy is a silly assertion for multiple reasons. First ... he already spent his money on Dak! The ramifications of "giving up" on Prescott - presumably in a cut - would threat to set the Cowboys back decades financially. If the Cowboys decide to release their quarterback post-June 1 - either this year or next year - they'll face at least $74 million in dead money. Advertisement An earlier cut, say immediately after next season ends, Dallas would be on the books for at least $130 million. Cherry on top? No savings. Even if Prescott fails to meet his expectations, that's a lot of money to willingly let wash down the drain. More importantly, forfeiting a figure that steep is crippling to any team's future cap situation, especially if you lose the player in the process. The Jones family, as equally savvy and frustrating as they can be using the cap, are smart enough to recognize this risk. Secondly, the Cowboys may not even have a chance at grabbing Arch Manning if they even wanted to next offseason. Advertisement The nephew of Peyton and Eli is a coveted quarterback prospect entering his first season as the full-time starter. He didn't stay committed to Texas, redshirt his freshman season and complete two years as a backup just to enter the NFL after one year of starting experience in college. Even if Arch shines and Texas wins the national championship, there is a stronger likelihood that Manning stays with the Longhorns and puts his name in the 2027 NFL Draft after his fourth year in college and second as a starter. It's the same timeline each of his uncles and his grandfather Archie - whom he greatly admires - took in their college careers. They each had Hall-of-Fame careers. Why wouldn't Arch follow that blueprint? Prescott and the Cowboys will continue facing sky-high expectations, but there at least two more seasons to go before the front office needs to make a decision about the starting quarterback. Advertisement And that's for the better, financially and logically. Related: Should Cowboys' Dak Prescott Be A Running QB In 2025?

Peyton Manning Doesn't Hold Back About Longhorns QB Arch Manning
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entering the 2025 college football season, the Texas Longhorns and quarterback Arch Manning are expected to be one of the best teams in the nation. Manning has drawn a lot of attention due to being the nephew of NFL legends Peyton Manning and Eli Manning, but he's now ready to forge his own path. Manning has the talent to become something very special. Many believe that he would be in contention to be the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft if he chooses to leave Texas. That being said, he has a lot of hype to live up to during the upcoming season with the Longhorns. Arch Manning #16 of the Texas Longhorns warms up prior to the game against the Georgia Bulldogs in the 2024 SEC Championship at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on December 7, 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. Arch Manning #16 of the Texas Longhorns warms up prior to the game against the Georgia Bulldogs in the 2024 SEC Championship at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on December 7, 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. Photo byAhead of his first year as the full-time starter for Texas, Manning's uncle, Peyton, spoke out him. The legendary NFL quarterback is expecting a big-time year from his nephew. Read more: Bill Belichick's Future With North Carolina Made Crystal Clear By Insider During an interview with Sporting News, Manning spoke out about Arch. He made it clear first and foremost just how proud he is of the young signal caller. "I'm proud of Arch," Manning said. "He went to Texas because that's where he wanted to go. He wanted to go to school there. That was the reason I went to Tennessee." Manning continued on to talk about what makes the Longhorns such a good football program. "It's more than just the football program," he said. "You like going to school there. You like the head coach who also calls the plays, and that creates great continuity. To me, the Kyle Shanahans, the Sean McVays – when the head coach is calling the plays – the quarterback is going to thrive in the same system every single year." He then transitioned into talking about the younger Manning's upcoming year. "The fact that this will be Arch's third year in that system, he'll have great knowledge of the system – still hasn't had on-the-field game reps as I'm sure he would have liked, but those will come this year," Manning said. "There will be things for him to learn, but I'm proud of him for his commitment and I'm looking forward to watching him play." Read more: Ohio State Buckeyes QB Julian Sayin Already Creating Huge Hype Last season, Arch received some valuable playing time behind Quinn Ewers. He completed 67.8 percent of his pass attempts for 939 yards, nine touchdowns, and two interceptions. He also ran for 108 yards and four more scores. After waiting behind Ewers for two years, it's Manning's turn. He's ready for the limelight and will be given a chance to prove that the superstar hype he has received as a backup is accurate. His uncle is clearly excited and expecting big things from him. It will be interesting to see if Manning is able to prove everyone right for believing in him.

One user straight-up said, 'On GREER?!' while another added, 'Ain't no way Ryan took him on the south side 😂😂😂.' Cue the chaos. Some fans assumed Arch had wandered into the "hood" and were shocked he looked so calm.

For a guy with the Manning name, he looked more like someone's cool cousin than a blue-chip recruit and that's exactly why fans loved it. Turns out, Arch wasn't just wandering through STL for fun. He and his Texas teammates including DeAndre Moore Jr. and Ryan Wingo were in town for a youth football camp, giving kids a chance to train with real Longhorns.

24 Dumb Things People's Partners Said
We recently asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to tell us the dumbest thing they ever heard their partner say. Here are the dumbest (and funniest) things they shared: "My husband's ex once ordered the half-roasted chicken off a menu while they were out to dinner one night, but proceeded to ask the waiter that they 'cook the chicken all the way rather than only halfway.'" "My husband and I were actually taking a tour at my son's new college, and the guide was talking about the Greek life on campus. I thought he was talking about real Greek people. I realized the mistake after I saw the look on my husband's face." "I had a girlfriend in high school who asked me how they knew which corner had gas in it. Most of the gas stations were on corners. She thought they drilled for gas and built the station because gas was on that corner!" "They said the wind is caused by the trees violently waving their leaves." "I had a boss who thought that the Arch in St. Louis was to honor McDonald's. You know the Golden Arches. It was so hard not to laugh in her face." "I never realized how often I use the word adjacent until I dated a guy, 39 years old with a master's degree, and I had to explain what adjacent meant every time I said it." "My ex, who was 28 at the time, was convinced that he was uncircumcised. I tried to explain to him that the foreskin covers the head and that he was, in fact, circumcised. He still didn't believe me and decided to ask his mom. The look on her face when we made eye contact was priceless." "I dated a girl who was very attractive and who I thought was smart. Somehow, we got on the subject of military time. She just could not get the concept. After multiple explanations, I realized I could never have children with her." "My boyfriend at the time and I were driving somewhere when he happened to mention he lost his license and needed to get a replacement. When I asked him how he lost it, he replied, 'I put it in the ATM. I didn't have my debit card, and when you go into the bank, you can just give them your ID to get cash out. I thought you could do the same with an atm machine.'' "My ex thought that evolution wasn't real. Their proof was that 'My daddy ain't a monkey.' I should've dumped them then and there." "My ex told me that Thanksgiving was on a Thursday again this year." "My ex's stubble was really irritating the skin on my face, so I asked him to start shaving every day. After the second day, he complained about razor burn. I had not noticed that he did not have shaving cream and just assumed he used soap when he shaved. Nope. He had been dry-shaving his entire life. Not even water. When I finally asked why he thought they made shaving cream, his answer was that it was a conspiracy to sell shaving cream that I had fallen for." "He asked me how they decide where to put islands on maps since they're always moving around. He truly thought islands were not connected to the Earth and that they floated freely around the ocean, occasionally running around." "They thought the thyroid gland was located in the thigh. It took the word of a medical doctor to convince them it is actually located in the neck!" "She asked me, 'Where do fish go in the winter?' We live in northern Illinois. I guess she thought they migrate like birds." "When my husband saw a bumper sticker that said 'FREE TIBET,' he asked, 'What's a tibet?'" "My ex refused to wash her hands after going to the bathroom because she claimed her fingers never touched the poop, only the TP did. Then she went straight to the kitchen to fix dinner. Goodbye!" "My ex received a small succulent plant from our realtor when we moved into the new house. About three months later, she was bragging to some guests about how well she was caring for it. They laughed when they realized she had been routinely watering an artificial plant. That stupidity was unfortunately only the tip of the iceberg!" "My ex thought Washington DC was in the state of Washington and had no idea what the first 13 colonies were. He said they didn't teach 'Geology' in Tucson." "My ex-girlfriend thought they would give writing materials, like books and pens, to new students at the university." "I told my ex that my big sister was pregnant and due to give birth in December. This was around November. So he asked me if my sister was currently 11 months pregnant. I told him to say that again slowly until he understood. He didn't. I had to tell him. What's ironic is that his mom is a midwife." "I invited my boyfriend, at the time, to come to my parents' house to have dinner. It was the first time I had invited a significant other over, and as we sat down to eat, he mused, out loud, that it was crazy how glasses leak water. He was referring to condensation. He thought the beads of water were leaking out of tiny pores in the glass. The whole table was just silent for a minute or so, not sure what to say." "He was shopping for car tires online and came across the metal rims without the rubber tires. He thought they were a new, sleek, and futuristic kind of tire and tried to insist on trying them out." And finally, "After we saw the movie The Martian, she said it was so amazing that someone could survive on Mars like that, and it made her proud of humanity. I was like…'.Wait, you know that's fiction, right? Humans haven't even been to Mars,' and she was shocked. She had read the book and seen the movie, thinking it was a 100% true story."
