The nephew of Peyton and Eli and grandson of Archie had a stat line that hasn’t been done in football in recent history.<\/p>\n

First, the stat combination provided by OptaStats<\/a>:<\/p>\n

According to OptaStats, Arch is the only FBS or NFL quarterback in the last 30 seasons to have a game with all those statistics.<\/p>\n

The highlight of Arch’s day was a 60-yard TD run, but he was special throughout.<\/p>\n

He completed 21-of-34 passes for 221 yards and two scores.<\/p>\n

He ran nine times for 155 yards and two more scores.<\/p>\n

It was a special way for Arch to end this season.<\/p>\n

He’ll be coming back for next season, hoping to make the College Football Playoff while raising his NFL Draft stock as high as possible.<\/p>\n
