Smart play...you have to know what you got in him. You can't go into next season not knowing what you bought. He may be awesome or he may flame out, either way you have to know. If he's awesome...great for us, and it helps contract talks with BH. If he sucks, you know to trade him to Dallas and find a starter in the draft.

Here is my hope after watching many JFF college games on Youtube. I am not a JFF fan boy by any means, but since he is our QB, I will support him.
My hope? That the magic that occurred between JFF and Evan's can be re-created with Gordon. The physical appearance between Evan's and Gordon are almost identical. They are both freakishly tall and physical players.
Half of the JFF magic at Texas A&M must be given to Mike Evan's. How many times did Johnny throw one up into triple coverage, only to be bailed out by the physical play of Mike Evan's.
I get the feeling that Gordon and Manziel are going to make a great team together. Both Manziel and Gordon are impromptu players who have a certain level of "make it up as you go" play making ability. I think that Hoyer and Gordon were never going to get into sync, because Hoyer is a timing QB. Gordon didn't seem to like the timing patterns at all...
I hope that Johnny and Josh are this generations Rice and Young...
Time will tell.

Grand wish, Bob.
Johnny's stronger arm should unleash Josh to some extent... open 10 or 15 yards of field to him that BH could not reach. So I easily see a go route or two.
In time backshoulders and other read passes may come, but I would not expect much this week. I do not see enough time to sync up the reads of a Week 1 QB with a Week 4 WR.

Trying to ignore idiots like Dukes, and give a prediction. I usually don't like doing predictions, but Johnny's never let me down.
Johnny is going to be so much better than Hoyer, it won't be funny. He will be making most of you say, "Holy shit, why did we wait so long??!!" He will throw for 250+ and run for 70, and will RARELY GET HIT. He'll lead the offense to 30+ points and almost 500 yards.
"He's too small." He's always been small and he's never walked onto a field where he wasn't the best player on it.
"He'll make rookie mistakes." Yes, he will, but not nearly as many as most expect. He's very careful with the ball when the situation calls for it. Too often in college he knew the defense sucked and he had to take risks to score points. He will not be overly risky with the Browns stud defense.
"He doesn't know the playbook." You are truly a fucking idiot if you think this.
"You're just a fanboy, you don't know what you're talking about." I am a fan of Johnny, yes. I'm also a football fan since the early 70's. I've seen all that could be seen in that time, and I'm telling you, Johnny is special. He's the only one of his kind that I've ever seen. He's not tebow, flutie, Vince young, or any other comparison you could make. I will not be surprised if the Browns win these last 3 games relatively easily.
In Aaron Rodgers' word, "relax", Johnny's got this.
See this is the kind of unbridled fanboy mancrush bs we can do without here in Cleveland. No offense dude you're probably a good guy, but gtfo with this bullshit. It's not constructive. All this kind of hype does is set us up for failed expectations. We do this with every new QB we bring in to town. Your post right here is "exactly" why I didn't want Manziel to start for at least 2 years....cause this kind of hype no QB can live up to. Neither Rodgers nor Brady would have ever panned out here in Cleveland under these kind of expectations. Can we please not setup up JM for failure? All of you JM fans should be the first guys to be saying "hey let's curb our expectations he's a rookie". If we lower the bar and he exceeds it, hey..great. And you're only throwing out the 30+ points figure cause the offense has scored close to that with Hoyer as the QB. You cannot come out and proclaim with any kind of straight face that no question Johnny puts 30+ points on the Bengals. Who by the way will be looking to utterly annihilate him. They'll give up some big plays just to get to him early. They know if they get in his head early the games over.

both of you guys need to take a fucking deep breath....let's just wait and see and hope it all works out well, right out of the box...which at this late date is pretty much what has to happen for the browns to keep having any hope of the playoffs....
i have confidence in manziel too...but let's not get carried away.....we're playing contenders and they are going to do everything they can to make johnny's day a rough one.....
i hope our defense plays like they did the last time we played them.....we fucked their offense up pretty good that day...let's do it again.....

LOL... someone's gonna bite Marv's ankle...
Ever notice that the Brownie even looks a little like Johnny?
No...

yeah, it'd be nice to have evans to throw to....it'd be real nice to have swope out there to throw to too.....both of those guys were fucking money......
-
should be interesting.....if johnny can stay out of harm's way he will make it exciting if nothing else.....i really believe it is the correct choice and that right now manziel does give the team the best shot at winning.....will it be easy?... probably not....will there be mistakes?....almost definitely...i'm just hoping the good plays out weigh the bad ones and we get the win.....and while hoyer has a right to feel disappointed in his performance, he knows in his heart he was given every chance to succeed. i hope he can suck it up and do what he can to help the team win..just like he said.....

What Hoyer really thinks: 'Fuck you JFF and Pettine. And JFF, next time don't leave a wet spot where I sleep next to my lady'.
-
Through all this crap, all this love/hate no one can argue that Manziel this year has been a professional. The getting there later than Hoyer is a non-story outside of anyone at ESPN and it's clear that the "fight" was some drunk morons accosting him. No matter how you feel about the guy he's shown up, kept his mouth shut and waited for his chance to play which is now.
-
how sick would it have been to stay at 4 and take Evans and then Johnny later on?
-
Everytime I get excited about the prospect of manziel, I come on here and see all the weirdo Johnny slurpers and ruin for me. I almost don't want him to succeed so they can disappear.
-
had a chuckle at the difference in lengths of Pettine/Jm's statements vs Hoyers. Says everything.

I agree....I've certainly taken my shots at him and his personal life choices...but am excited as all get out to see him play.....even if he's not instantly great, he should be instantly exciting and entertaining....
He's a baller, so even if he doen't have all the experience, he'll make a game of it....

This is exactly why I posted.
I don't fucking care about the past failures of Browns qb's. I don't care if my prediction makes me look like a fanboy. I have what is called "faith". You guys amaze me with your lack of it, but I know better. No matter how many people try to dpwnplay the Buffalo td drive, that is who he is and what he'll do time and time again. Call me names now, tell me I'm wrong or don't know, I don't care.
GET FIRED UP!!! One of the most exciting players to ever put on pads is about to start for the Browns. Fuck weeden,, fuck McCoy, fuck all the past, a new era is beginning.

You want The Browns to lose because of Johnny?
You're such a fucking loser you should be banned, you're so jealous it's pathetic. You're embarrassing.

Excited about Sunday, no doubt about it. I have high hopes, but realistic expectations, as I don't give a shit what he did in college or what his nickname is, he's still a rookie and he's going to make his fair share of mistakes.
Hopefully this is the first day of the next 15 years of stellar QB play......................

yeah...that scenario is a great one...but probably not that likely....if pigs had wings, they could fly.....
still, having evans to throw to is a nice contemplation.....
