    Man, I have a lot of confidence in Manziel's abilities, but you make me look like a detractor. I've never seen a college player quite like him, but you're glossing over some things as well. He looked completely baffled by the LSU defense last year (yeah, I know, thumb injury), and he absolutely did throw a few bad interceptions, including a particularly unnecessary one against Alabama at home when we were ahead. You say he'll rarely get hit. It depends; if he plays with the total abandon that he played with in college, where he was pretty much more agile than anyone else on the field, he might killed. If he's a little more judicious than that, and learns not to go for broke on every play, then he might make it.

    I'm totally pumped, but it's got the potential to be a little rocky. He's a smart kid; hopefully he's become a more patient one as well.

    I'll admit I might have set the bar high, but I have a track record winning bets about Johnny.

    LSU had his number, no doubt. The int against bama was a terrible play by the receiver, ran a bad route and let the corner pick it. Big play for sure.

    I guess I'm just tired of all the people expecting him to fail, so I just wanted to put forth a little optimism.

    I went overboard, hope I'm right.

    I like your style.

  • Sorry, just don't see it, unless Josh get's more hungry to go get the ball that's not in stride. Randy Moss Jerry Rice and Josh our the best in stride WR's. Evans is bigger, can take and give a hit and is not lazy to go get a real shitty pass. Wonder where he learned that from..

    Not surprised. Hopefully pick up nationally. Might get a shot at seeing this in Orlando. Always get shitty bucs, jags, or dolphins.

    Do you ever make it down to the Bowling Green area?

  • whatchu know bout bowling green?

    Life and energy hasn't left the stadium all year. This last Sunday was as rowdy if not more rowdy than it's been all year.

    And the QB pissed it away, that's why Johnny is your new QB and there isn't anything you can do about it except take it to the face.

    Wha, exactly, did you have to do with the decision to start Manziel?

    The Offense did that . . . ALL of them.

    OL wasn't doing great, Hoyer was bad, RB's had a few good runs and more than their share of bad ones.

    WR's a few drops, and some definite bad routes.

    Miles out hurt, and I don't know WTF is going on with Gordon - really like the kid, but damn, what's up?

    Oh, and let's not forget our Kicker . . . . fives games now with a miss ?

    Some weekends we go down to the bars there, I went on a date with a girl down there a few weeks ago.

    Watched football all my life. Proud Cowboy fan. I dont watch college football but caught one of the A&M games by accident and one player instantly caught my attention. He reminded me of Tony Romo. A souped-up version. I have no doubts his game translates to the NFL. Only variables is how long it takes and if he can stay healthy.

    Wow, my thoughts exactly. Romo against Denver last year reminded me of Johnny.

    LSU has one of the smartest defensive coordinators in the NCAA in Chavis. He made the proper adjustments. Have Barkevious Mingo and Montgomery hold the outside and rush 3 up the middle. They held him scoreless in the second half both times they played. In fact A & M has yet to beat LSU since they joined.

    All Johnny had that second year was Evans. With the best secondary in college football ( all 4 were drafted and are playing in the NFL every Sunday - and we have Barkevious in Cleveland- LSU (LSU- '80 grad) played havoc on many oassing games.

    I think Johnny will tear Cincy up especially if Dalton plays his usual crappy game.
