Jonathan Paul Manziel

Buffalo has a way tougher D and Manziel led the team to a TD on first drive, the difference was the Buffalo D didn't
know what was coming and Manziel was READY to go and play.
This game he went down 0-7, then 0-17. Shannahan and co. did not help him become settled in the game.
Only player ever who might've had a shot as a rookie first start in that situation would be A.Luck.
He did make terrible throws and late reads but thats something most rooks need to get out of their system at this
level. He's still a kid.
I believe in JF.. and if not then Mariota because we need someone who can SLANG the rock, but only if Johnny
Football isn't Cleveland's R. Wilson.

I think this belongs in the Johnny Excuses thread?
Buffalo's top 10 defense forced him to fumble in the end zone.
Buffalo's 2nd string defense played cover 3 prevent and he still made incorrect reads on the plays. (Forced in to dray, nearly picked when West was wide open on the left sideline, missed a wide open Gabriel).
Regardless, whenever we see all the things he can't do are we just going to remember that one garbage time drive against buffalo to make us feel better?

We've heard plenty about Aikman and both Mannings etc etc and how they struggled in their first NFL starts.
Here's a list that is Manziels true comparisons at this point. This is the talent level that he's in at this point.
NFL QB's to be shut out in their first NFL start in the last 20 years:
2014 Johnny Manziel
2010 Rusty Smith (who??) Titans
2003 Dave Ragone (seriously who???) Texans
2002 Henry Burris (LOL) Bears
2000 Spergon Wynn (will always be able to say he was drafted ahead of Brady) Browns
1997 Danny Wuerffel (Heisman Winning College gimmick QB) Saints
So that's the company our first round draft pick is in and we're supposed to have patience for this clown?
Fuck him and his homo fagboy fans that have been showing up here since we drafted him.

... Manziel was READY to go and play.
If that was so against Buffalo, then can we conclude that he was over prepared to face the Bengals?
The gay cliche is you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but he's a fucking rookie. That said, watch the Walsh-Montana practice videos on YouTube. I hated the Niners as a kid, but looking back, their attention to detail is legendary. Best case scenario he ends up the next Joe Montana. Worst case, Tony Montana.
Just remembered that JM spent pre-Pro Day time with QB guru, George Whitfield Jr.
I remember a breakthrough occurred when George had Johnny add his pinky to his grip on the laces.

You can have as little patience as you want. I doubt Johnny cares either way.

Cause he's got his $8 million contract and rich parents.I hope he doesn't flame out- but if he does- he'll be the biggest NFL overhyped bust since Brian Bosworth.
Any way you care to spin it- that was an epically bad first start. Even got a bunch of us more level headed guys sucked in based on the small sample size against the Bills. No longer.

I don't think he proved much against the bills, if I'm being honest.Cause he's got his $8 million contract and rich parents.I hope he doesn't flame out- but if he does- he'll be the biggest NFL overhyped bust since Brian Bosworth.

He missed reads there too and nearly threw a pick over hitting a wide open west.
Maybe somehow he settles down against Carolina and shows something, I just don't see it based on the way he played Sunday.
I like the excuses forum though. Seen people comparing it to the return of MJ and return of Lebron and their sub par performances due to overhype in other places. Funny stuff.

Pains me to say be Hoge is right. He's got no skills that translate to the NFL and has negative tendencies that will just end up hurting the team (both on and off the field). Flush the turd.

Its called muscle memory. The guys has gone his entire life as a qb playing one way. Unless you work on overcoming those instincts you have moulded, which takes a long time, you'll fall back to what you're acclimated to.
Tebow was supposed to get his windmill mechanics fixed. Hey it worked for two throws. When the game got heated he was back to wind milling passes.
Its just human nature.

You could also direct some anger towards the team management who decided to bench Hoyer and bring in Manziel? But the JFF haters can't do that. Its all on JFF.

Yes but I don't think manziels mechanics are too bad. At least the upper body mechanics, lower body mechanics a different story. Momentum wrong way, footwork, etc). Obviously he looks good on pro day and what not, but that's not the same.Its called muscle memory. The guys has gone his entire life as a qb playing one way.

They all suffer under pressure, but that's expected.
Anyway tebows were/are much worse. Manziels are correctable, with time and practice. Most of manziels issues are self induced unnecessarily
Hoyer has pretty solid mechanics that only faultered due to his mind, and has an excellent release (high, fast, etc). He just suffered by sensing pressure that didn't exist and getting off balance. I think with more confidence in the blockers he'd be fine
not to sound like a cock slobber but my opinion is definitely to keep him around.The real argument for manziel was that he overcame some of his sloppy mechanics by his athleticism and intelligence, which is probably true but if you can't keep everything clean in a clean pocket you won't succeed in the NFL.

Still don't think it was necessarily a bad choice to put manziel in. He got flack for doing it he would have gotten flack for not doing it. He's gonna play it out but I think we'll be more hopeful on manziel if he shows improvement against Carolina, and even more improvement against Baltimore.

So if Manziel throws for 300 and 3 TDs against Carolina, what then?
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -

Very selective-How about Aaron Rogers 8/15 65 yds and 2 interceptions? Yeah another fuck up who turned into a pumpkin.

The board hits record traffic and the servers crash with everybody trying to compare him to Joe Montana.
