Jonathan Paul Manziel

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.

exactly why we don't need another.
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.

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.

I actually had an epiphany a short while ago.
I recall in 2012 sitting in the stadium (Kyle Field), and this guy in his mid 40s was jostling for position among kids to get players' autographs on the sideline. He came down and sat next to my wife and I. He asked me who all of the players were that he just got autographs from. He was wearing a number 2 jersey and said he loves Manziel. I asked him a few things and he quickly admitted that he didn't go to A&M, but he loved watching Manziel and had to come watch him in person.
From that point forward I realized that while t-shirt fans in general can be a good thing for total revenue and representation in our state (competing in popularity), I still disliked having all of these new outsiders.
While not quite to that level (I don't own a Manziel jersey either TAMU or Browns), I'll admit I'm getting close to that person I despise. I'll leave you numbnuts in peace. We both want the same thing, but y'all are right: if there wasn't an Aggie on the Browns team I wouldn't give a flip about your team and would move onto the next.
One down fellas. Enjoy what's left of your season.

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.

Two steps? Can you do that on "two broken legs?"

Sure thing pal. You enjoy those daydreams of Manziel's dick bouncing off the back of your throat. What an asshole.

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?
The one that has played?
Im not so sure he'll get hurt just because he runs or is an inch shorter...
And he is very elusive....so lots of glancing blows.....
Im sure IF he gets hurt, a lot of folks will claim his style or size is the reason, even though QB's go down every week for a million different reasons....big ones, pocket passers, runners....they all get hit
Brian got hurt sliding, not cause he was hit...
First, Hoyer got hit while sliding. Alonso's added force dug Brian's knee into the turf stopping the slide and the knee gave.
As to JM... agree totally...
He has all the tools he needs to run safely ala Russell Wilson. JM has every attribute you listed plus good vision and mad quicks. The issue is: will he go for more than he can safely get? He has to understand that sticking his head down and trying to drive or dive for a first down in the 3rd Qtr with a tie score is not worth the injury potential no matter how slight he thinks I may be.
As inspiring as the TD vs BUF was the same asshole that speared Barn went for JM's ribs... just didn't get them... that time. But it was a game circumstance worthy of JM's effort and its risk... as it made the score 20-10 with 8+ left... IIRC.

I sent him an Obama alarm clock. It has the Unites States flag on it and a countdown to 1-17-15

In the tampa Bay Area all the Bucs games are televised on Fox. So I'm out of luck because they both start at 100. And the sports bars show NASCAR

Disagree, guys... this is a waste of a perfectly good epiphany.
evan, you get it.
Step one of correcting a problem is recognizing there is a problem... and step two is not hitting the door.
Just chill a little...
show some interest in the Browns...
tell a cool JM story with out the expectation, the demand, that we'll all go wide-eyed...
And then on Sunday help us celebrate what there is to celebrate and dissect what there is to dissect.
The door is open.
But if not, then go in peace...

Senior citizens watching people drive fast, like Brandon weeden watching a Qb read a defense.

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.

Ag, I have no doubts JF has a better arm & deep accuracy than Hoyer. Can he read a defense better is what I want to see. I wouldn't doubt Guenter will dial up a few exotic blitzes to see how fast Manziel is in recognizing them.

You know when someone doesnt know much about the subject when they mention all Johnny did was throw jump balls. I think most JFF fans know his strengths and weaknesses and what he has to work on. The worst part will be the instant evaluations after his first start.
Where did I say that's all he ever did? Mistakes like that are game killers, and most of the time the margin of winning and losing a game in the NFL can turn on one or two plays. Um, you don't see 25 point lines in the NFL like you do in college.
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?
Well I'd say you're wrong.

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.
What you don't understand is being primarily an NFL fan doesn't make it mutually exclusive you're clueless as to what's going on in the college game- it works both ways. Was at the Browns- Colts game, and when they put it up on the scoreboard the Buckeyes were in the playoff, a huge Oh- IO, chant went up. We also have to follow the college game to keep up on what potential studs are out there come draft time.
Incidentally, speaking about the draft- for around the last six years, that would have been the primary area of discussion on this board in December.

Gosh sakes...
I cannot remember the last time I saw h this pissed...
The above goes into detail about the Buffalo td drive. Not sure how to post links.
Here's something from the second article I wasn't aware of.
" Manziel attempted the highest percentage of passes covering 20 yards or longer among the consensus top four quarterback prospects, a whopping 18.69 percent of his throws, according to Greg Peshek of Rotoworld.
Manziel completed 55.84 percent of those shot plays, also the top mark and better than Bridgewater, Bortles and Carr."
Thanks for the link. As you now know it's just a copy/ paste thing directly into the reply box.
And I shit you not... we knew the JM stat you did not... I think it was TCPO that posted an article that did a full comparison of all the top QB prospects in the 2014 draft. Mostly as I recall it was to argue that Carr's stats we padded by the number of behind the LOS throws he made. But the surprise in the article was JM's downfield percentage.
So if you need to know anything else about JM... just ask...

Well Mike Pettine seems to want to know how it works out for sure.
We're you as surprised as I that Pettine did not commit to JM for the balance of the season?
Everlasting, have you ever noticed Johnny having a problem throwing while rolling left, or heard that that was a weakness?
Ag69 informed us long ago of JM's Shortstop prowess explaining his ability to roll left and throw effectively across his body. You did know he played SS right? A real fan would...

I cannot remember the last time I saw h this pissed...
Not really pissed Tour- just trying to introduce some semblance of reality.

Sure I hope Manziel has a great game, and we sweep the Bengals- first time in how long?
OTOH, I do wonder how the more ardent JFF fans will react if Johnny goes out and totally shits the bed.

Found a gif of MikToxic from last week:
