Well Mike Pettine seems to want to know how it works out for sure.

And guess why JF was not at the Cavs game last night (end of the article).

Doesn't that little shit know the expectations of late nights out and TMZ?

Everlasting, have you ever noticed Johnny having a problem throwing while rolling left, or heard that that was a weakness?

Unless he looks GREAT!......right?

Lol. Yes, the evaluations are he'll be a phenom because he had a touchdown drive against buffalo.

I'm willing to give him a full season unless he's shitting the bed for numerous games in a row. Gotta get a good sample size to see how he'll compete.

I just wonder how he's going to handle the cold and wind.

Mudfly

I think he'll handle the cold fine. Seems pretty gritty to me.

Ill give him the same thing I gave Hoyer(and Weeden), which is plenty of time.....Id say through next season at least to get a read....unless he's a superstar or extremely bad from day 1....and that would be GREAT..... or terrible

I have heard that before but i havent noticed it myself. I think its a tougher throw for any right handed QB because of the body/feet motion.

One of his most memorable IMO was his double okie-doke right spin he did versus Miss St to avoid a sack (twice) and rolled left threw it down field on a near rope to the sideline a couple of yards beyond the marker. I think A&M was 3rd and 25.

Linked to his throw. (BTW, those highlights show a ton of long throws...it also shows him throwing off his back foot. =/ )

Evan, something's wrong with those highlights. I mean, it shows 51 points worth of highlights for the Aggies, but where are all those Evans jump balls I keep hearing about?

ugg.

now we got aggie fans arguing with each other about college football on a frickin NFL football team's forum.

what a bunch of assholes.

what are you guys 10 years old?

here's the gist of what happens sunday. manziel looks great, great. manziel looks OK, great. manziel looks like he doesn't belong in the NFL.....not so great.

Do we call him a bust if he doesn't look great like some have called gilbert by week 3.

DieHardBrownsFan

Absolutely not. But you can bet plenty on here will.

Aggie Brown fan

Can't wait.

I don't know... I'm pretty excited to see if Gilbert earned more PT...

With the way our D has been playing, we don't need Manziel to play like the gunslinger he was in college. We definetly won't need 500+ yards and 30+ points in this game. We just need a smart and effective game manager to move the chains and get us in the endzone a couple times... I hope Johnny is our man to do that...

of course not.

hey if these aggie fans are right he's going to be aaron rodgers right outta the gate. let's hope he is but as old and wise as i am that would be a hupe leap in faith and i haven't played hopscotch in 50 years. (old white men can't jump)

i kinda think the NFL coaches (or any coaches for that matter) know more than college football FANS and there was a reason why he wasn't named starter from day one like that punk bitch skip bayless keeps saying he should've been. bayless knows how to lay out his back tracking weeks in advance sorta like some people on this board. he's making the reason now, if manziel plays like shit, to blame it on our FO and HC and that they are/were behind his demise since "they didn't want him."

it took a homeless guy holding a bottle of irish rose to MAKE the browns select him at 22. lol.

I think that is exactly what shanny is planning using the skills he now knows that Manziel has. I expect more moving pockets, more rollout/naked bootleg and more draw/play action. I also expect him to stretch the field early so the safeties don't do to him what they did to Hoyer. First time they see one sailing 60 yds over their heads with better accuracy I think they stop cheating up to stop the run.

Ever notice that the Brownie even looks a little like Johnny?

I have a theory that 70-85% of die hard NFL fans 1) never graduated college with a 4 yr degree or 2) never graduated college with a football team worth a damn.

I'm curious if you fall into one of those categories?

miktoxic

retired from the madison ave ad biz when i was 48. (still working tho) no college necessary. just a quick wit and a keen creative mind.

yeah that college thing......

i guess you don't need a piece of paper to distinguish shit when you see it, hear it or smell it. i think you might fall into one of those categories.
