You have to be medically fucked in the head to not want Manziel to start.
Hoyer fucking sucked today and I'm glad the coaches pulled him

All right, I said in the tavern that I wouldn't respond here this week, but here goes.
I like Brian, and have been in his corner 100%, but I don't like the way Brian has regressed the last 5 weeks culminating in today's performance. If Pettine makes a change, it is not just because of how Brian played today, and even the most biased Brian supporter HAS to see and agree with this. He will make the change because of Brian's complete body of work, and how that body has been regressing.
There is never a perfect time to make a change at QB because of lack of production, but right now, it's about as good as it gets for Pettine. We are still in the playoff race with a 1/4 of the season left to be played. Johnny has had time to watch, listen and learn and is probably as ready now as he will be any time this year.
Hopefully Pettine will be smart and not give any type of definitive answer on who starts next week as to keep the Colts guessing and give Johnny any tiny advantage he can give him............ The press and we won't like it, but if he's smart, it's what he'll do.
Based on the last 5 weeks and if I'm the head coach, I start Johnny......... and that coming from a Brian supporter.

i don't think manziel makes this team better. i think hoyer is royally fucking up. i don't care who starts as long as that person give the browns the best chance to win.
it's a 2 edged sword now for manziel AND for the browns. if manziel starts and blows does that mean our QB search is still on? i love what hoyer did for us but if you can't mentally tough it out with the pressures going on around you then you can't be that guy that leads the team into battle. simple as that. and let's see how teams prep for manziel. i really doubt the bills did anything this week thinking manziel would come in.
i don't think manziel makes this team better.
His ability to scramble and pocket presence alone makes us a better team.

Well as long as he doesn't fumble and throw into double coverage like he did today (and got away with it) we're good. I can't say after watching what he did today he makes us a better team, even with the TD drive. If he starts next week I'll be able to make a better judgement.

Does Hoyer start against Indy?
I do not know.
I've said it before: Hoyer's only edge has been his ability to read the defense and execute the Offense. Based upon our success after audibles and some of his early play, it is clear he made good decisions as well.
Mechanically Hoyer looked bad in some recent games, but looked better last week against ATL. I think that mechanically he looked good again today.
However, his second INT in Gordo's direction was a sucker Defense and Hoyer fell for it. It was similar to the way Leonard suckered Orton for the endzone pick early. If he made other read errors, he has opened the door to the possibility of losing his job.
Assuming the door is open, then the question is: Is JM allowed to waltz through it?
Again, I do not know.
Physically JM showed nothing today that we did not know he had. He had a good, high energy drive against a softer defense than BUF put up most of the day.
But that drive also included what looked to be a good, audible as well. If the throw, and non-throw, reads Manziel made were on the money as well, then he has closed that gap as well.
Enough to offset the rookie we still saw in the fumble and moreover his reaction to it?
I do not know.
One thing I do know though... should be an interesting week around here and Berea...

At least you are consistent at being inconsistent.

You lied to us...

It's simple...
MANZIEL OPENS UP THE OFFENSE, Brian Hoyer doesn't not. Period, end of story.
No linebackers have to worry about spying on Brian Hoyer, dude has no legs at all.
Manziel scoring that TD was proof this offense can be explosive. I drive, 80 yards.

With the Bills D-Line starters in he gets sacked and fumbles into the endzone...
It was ruled an incomplete pass you dumb fuck. He got right back up and fired a strike to Austin.
Quit being mad Johnny fucked your old lady loser.

Manziel is the reason this could be a more interesting year as a Cleveland Browns fan than has typically been the case lately. He may or may not make it, but how long do you go with what you saw today before you give him his shot. I never believed the Browns had enough offense this year to make the playoffs, even though they were winning. Yards get tougher at the end of the year.
For all his high school heroics, nobody really knew what they had at A&M in Manziel until he played. He's a gamer. Could be fun to watch.
you still didn't answer my question. why did you join the browns forum today?

That is an overreaction since when the Bills starters were in JF fumbled into the endzone.
The fumble was caused by a miscommunication with the snap, which is to be expected with a rookie coming in on the road for his first significant action.
And by the way the end result was an incomplete pass. Hoyer would have lost 10 yards by taking the sack.

1. He might scramble and get hurt? I might win the fucking lottery.
2. Anyone can scramble? No, see Brian Hoyer.
3. Hoyer's time is over, period. Accept it with a little dignity.

Would you like to wager that if JM starts next week, then it will be with a substantially reduced playbook?
Over/Under is 25%...
As for holding LBs... that is what the play action is for. But to do that you need to have some running game from the guys that are supposed to run.

Hoyer is finished, accept it.
Pettine made the call, and Manziel answered, some of you hanging on at this point are just embarrassing yourselves.
