    He's smart, a good leader, and inaccurate. All depends upon what we think we have in Manziel.

      As tour said, you're guessing. #1 in the NFL completion % throws over 15 yd going into today - he isn't afraid to go down the field.

        Not necessarily downfield as much certain coverages and responding to certain pressures

          A ha!!! There's a jab. Good for you.

          But l think you're right. Not so much afraid, but Hoyer always seems to err on the side of the non-interception throw. Which still counts as an incompletion.

          Good call, but this was a learning curve game for us.

          We are so gonna kick your ass week 17.

              Yeah, not afraid just overly cautious.

              You very well might depending upon the impact of Gordon returning.

                Again, afraid probably wasn't the best word, rather over cautious or hesitant

                  And guessing badly... pertinent info I failed to mention earlier.

                  What's paradoxical is that Hoyer will stand in and deliver the ball on target in the face of monster shots like the last he took from Cushing, but shy from pressure still relatively contained by his line...

                  It's perplexing...

                    As for coverages...

                    I don't know, but then neither do you as you get to see coverages on maybe 1 play in 10 in any broadcast. So you are guessing...

                    Pressure? Yes... as I just posted the threat of pressure up the middle in his face gets to BH. If you kill his stride, his accuracy plummets.

                      Not a guess...he isn't the most accurate qb. He's inconsistent with ball placement. Certain coverages he shys away from. Under pressure he's as likely to throw off target as on target, sometimes with not even real pressure just sort of panicky

                        It seems Brian Hoyer has also had the benefit of a lot of luck.

                        Maybe I'm just noticing it more but doesn't it seem to you guys the announcers are saying "that should have been picked off" pretty often? Seems like defenders are mysteriously missing or dropping the bad passes?

                              Hahaha. Sorry, I'll work on being a little more inflammatory.

                              I think if Gordon comes back strong we have no one healthy to cover him.

                              Only thing making me not piss my pants about week 17 is that it's in Baltimore.

                                I wouldn't say he's afraid. He does stand in there and get blasted by the rush

                                But he is not very accurate, especially when the other team knows he's throwing. ie 3rd down

                                It didn't help today that Miles dropped 2 perfect passes, but Hoyer was way under 50% before those 2 throws.

                                Hoyer was not the "main" reason why the Browns lost, but he didn't help them to win either.

                                  I wouldn't say he's afraid. He does stand in there and get blasted by the rush

                                  But he is not very accurate, especially when the other team knows he's throwing. ie 3rd down

                                  It didn't help today that Miles dropped 2 perfect passes, but Hoyer was way under 50% before those 2 throws.

                                  This is pretty much my understanding of the game.

                                    As for coverages...

                                    I don't know, but then neither do you as you get to see coverages on maybe 1 play in 10 in any broadcast. So you are guessing...

                                    Pressure? Yes... as I just posted the threat of pressure up the middle in his face gets to BH. If you kill his stride, his accuracy plummets.

                                    It's called game rewind my friend.

                                    What coverages did he have issues with?

                                    Which did he tear up?

                                    What percentage of the time did they play each?
