I don't expect miracles. Not only has Josh Gordon not work with the team all season he hasn't worked with Johnny at all. And quarterbacks do you need to get in rhythm with their favorite receivers.
I also hope that Kyle Shanahan is able to hold sway over the couch and tailor an offense suited to Johnny rather than try to force him into the role of the non quarterback centric offense .
WSS
As long as this gameplan doesn't include running a smaller, lighter QB than RG3 a bunch of times - I'll be content.
-
The entire state of Texas gets this game on fox according to 506Sports. I'm sure many Aggie fans and jerry Jones will be watching.
-
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?

TCPO you haven't been around much so you probably missed the memo..................................Walter is actually Haslam's love child and is the puppet master pulling all the strings ESPECIALLY Johnny's string

had a chuckle at the difference in lengths of Pettine/Jm's statements vs Hoyers. Says everything.
So does your top hobby... pulling the wings off of flies.
Paul Brown would be proud of Brian...
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.
Nah... folks that gratuitously start new threads just because they have a new bit of "news" first should go first.
Z stepping on your "JM to Start" thread must have stung like a bitch...
K. And like I told you before, you're free to go through my post history and see I wanted Manziel to start last week. Or you can keep leaving obscure remarks
Damn, if you'd only tweeted it...
Z stepping on your "JM to Start" thread must have stung like a bitch...
No actually it didn't, I'm always 2 steps ahead of you in the information and glad it got merged.
I'm not a 17 year teen who goes dissecting everything thread and making snarky, non contributing comments, get over yourself dad.

Well again, of the two quarterbacks we have on the roster which one was out for a year due to an injury sustained while running the ball?

Ok.
What can I say.
So if he gets killed in the first three starts we still have BH.
Or trade him today for a second package it up with our first two number ones to move up for Jamarcus Winston.
I wish BH was better but he's not. So I guess I'll cross my fingers and root for Johnny until somebody proves me wrong.

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

I'd say my usual "name three", but you can probably do that... so... name six...
Another bar raised by Johnny Manziel!

My hope is that some day JM will be talked about in the same breath as the great JB. ...except some are doing it already. Jim Brown's not a good analogy, as there are no comparisons between the 2....except they were both Browns....
Besides I plan to hang around another 50 years to see if he reaches that level of reverence.
:lol:...50 years???....hahahaha....shit, he's already reached it with you guys now...thats pretty obvious.....its that reverence, dripping like ooze from your posts, that makes us all want to puke......shit, he's already reached it with you guys now...thats pretty obvious.....its that reverence, dripping like ooze from your posts, that makes us all want to puke......
LOL! We didn't call him Johnny Legend for nothing you know. And as we would always say, "And the legend continues."
PS-guess what Boomer Esiason, Michael Irvin and Phil Simms have in common today-they all picked the Browns to beat Cinn. "even with a rookie QB".

The game will be the same time as the Texans game. I bet the Browns game gets twice the viewers.

will they have both telecasts live in TX? how is that possible? just askin...

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...
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.

One reason I'm psyched to see Johnny play is the Browns defense. Johnny should feel much less pressure to do "too much" because his defense is so good. I'm anxious to see how well he manages the game. One thing he was (hopefully still is) good at is third down. He's just a killer on converting third downs.
Well since Shanny has not employed a moving pocket all year it's have to be "more". Even his 1/4 roll designs are nearly naked with only a TE or RB peeling back. Naked boots and PAP are Shanny's staples. Draws? Maybe 2 including the last play of the Buffalo game.
Bring on the Pistol and the Read Option look. However, as I have said before, minus the run option early. Altogether, if we lead. Just release it into the RB's belly or pull it as a new PAP look.
The fact that you are curious as to whether JM can gear down his game does not give me comfort.
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.
Don't take data in Ohio... we're all Honorary Buckeyes. It will skew your survey results.
Well almost all. You can ask Woody...

I think Texans game is same time on CBS.

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.

Which paled compared to "Measy Mysey Ballsey"...
That's because we have different priorities...
I am a die hard Aggie and will support former Ags everywhere. Did you know ALL of Texas (Dallas, Austin, SA, Houston) switched from covering the Packers v Bills to the Browns v Bengals because Manziel is starting? You guys just picked up a few million more in audience watching your game. Are you really going to bitch about it because we want to see how the undersized kid from Texas with a gunslinger and road runner mentality does? You think this is singled out to Aggies? Watch ratings across the country when Manziel is involved. It is Tebow 2.0. I'm sorry that ruined your day. By the way, the Browns have a good D or having a shitty QB in Hoyer hasn't made you any more relevant. Johnny has, and with that you get a bunch of idiots like me following the Browns. You are welcome, dumbass.
Or would rather slip back into irrelevance and importance like you have been for the last 2 decades?
With every new arrival that call gets harder and harder...
There's no former player section at AggieFootbal.com/Forums?
Why would we give a flying fuck what regions are watching what regular season games?
And finally, how'd Tebow 1.0 work out?

Ive read this argument plenty of times here on this forum. I dont particularly understand it because it sounds like a whiny kid trying to keep others out of his sandbox. I cant speak for anyone else, but i love football. I find it enjoyable and entertaining. Its not life or death to me. I am a fan of many things, some more passionately than others. I dont see the difference between following a team vs a single person. I love boxing too and its a single person sport. You can be a fan of whatever you want. Not sure why you care so much about others fandom. BTW, to the outside world, i think they find die-hard NFL fans odd. Sitting down for hours and hours watching young boys run around in spandex.
They wear spandex?
Ever, you're one of the better ones. We all know that... you worked at becoming a Browns' fan. So as a fellow Browns' fan, please explain one thing to me.
In his interviews since the "announcement" Johnny seems more than willing to let his game on Sunday speak for itself.
Why can't his legions of fans do the same?

Let me see if I can shed some light on the Manziel following. There have been plenty of really decent players come out of A&M to various teams over the years and it's usually fun to watch their games when they are on. But Johnny Football was different from all of them. I think I once said on here that I called my Aggie friend with the Superbowl ring on his hand to tell he that after almost 50 years I had demoted him to second place as the greatest A&M athlete I had ever seen in 60 years of watching A&M football.
Johnny Manziel was the most head spinning, do everything athlete you could possibly imagine kind of player. Right up there with Bo Jackson. So it's the same reason a lot of people who were not Browns enjoyed watching the greatest runner every seen, Jim Brown. When you see someone who does things on a field you've never seen before you want to hang around just to see what he's gonna do next. So that is what you have. A player like none of us has ever seen has come your way. And apparently most of the rest of the nation wants to see him play as well, otherwise there would not be such a media circus.
Let me see if I can shed some light on the Manziel following.
Again???
The only person that can turn Johnny Skeptics like me into Johnny fans is Johnny... and the only way he does that is leading the Browns' Offense efficiently... he does that and I am good with him being a Brown.
Ag, you, and Ever, and the new guy, Faded, hell even, ABF are all credible advocates of Johnny... at least part of the time. But even you can't instill true belief in all things Johnny in me. And here is why...
Anyone telling me to have faith in Johnny is asking me to have faith in them first. And I've no reason to do that... especially not since I can see Johnny for myself in the very near future.
Go Browns...

Just to be clear because it seems like people kept thinking I was trying to imply that people without college degrees are somehow a lower class or unable to be successful. Like I said: folks tend to read what they want to read.
It was said that I must be a kid because I follow college football. My retort is that if you didn't go to a big-time college that soaks up CFB every Saturday, then of course you'd have no idea and you are more likely to be a NFL fan. I don't know many people who are Michigan, Texas, A&M, Nebraska, Oregon, Bama, Florida fans and are also "die-hard" NFL fans. That was my only point. They are usually mutually exclusive to some degree (not all mind you). This is why I prefer CFB over NFL.

"Usually mutually"??? I did not know there were degrees of being mutually exclusive... Gig 'em!
And you did not even list THE Ohio State University... boy did you fuck up.
Hey Fellow Browns' Fans... Are any of you Dyed-in-the-wool Buckeye Fans?

On a side note, johnny and hoyer were quick to dismiss the shoddy reports of hoyer always giving johnny the cold shoulder.
And manziel joked he didn't go to the cavs game.

Does that mean, no, you didn't notice before that JFF and the Brownie look a bit alike, or no, you see no resemblence?
There IS a resemblence.
No as in there is no resemblance whatsoever...
Cram a couple pounds of Brownies ears into nose and we'll talk...
And the camera angle and the fact that Hoyer is further away from the camera creates the illusion that their heights are close.

steve, i get your point, which is none actually.
you rooted for hoyer but still stuck it to him when he screwed up and asked why they did't start the kid....going back to week 10. but yet when asked about manziel you said he's great but at the same time he could mess up.
when you go to a casino do you bet 400 on red and 400 on black?
if you read the recent posts i think you might realize the majority of us on here are done with hoyer given the fact the way he's played the last 4 games. so i don't get the fact that you think others aren't going to root for manziel now. is it that you were right somehow and others were wrong? i'd love to see your pro-johnny posts before the season and the talk of hoyer getting pulled while we were winning.
stick to singing a sinatra tune cuz this other song you're singing is getting played....out.
