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

    Hell I hope so. All the wind left my sails at the moment. Really not prepared to sustain another first round QB bust.

    Manziel damn you don't be a bust.

    there was a reason why a lot of former GMs said none of these over-hyped QBs shouldn't be selected until the 2nd round.

    We should have traded him to jerrah when we had the chance.

    Agreed. But with our situation, even 2nd or 3rd round picks that we are told is our next QB to be groomed...well I'm tired of those busts too. Just tired.

    Damn it Hoyer why did you have to fall apart in the last month?

    If the coaches/FO held him back this long because they knew he wasn't ready, and thought he wasn't going to be fixable...oh yeah.

    If Jerrah would've picked him at #16 (I think it was), then who would we have today? Bridgewater? Eh..what does it matter. As ballpeen has repeated here...We Are Johnny Football. Sigh.

    Do it Manziel. You don't have to win these last two games (it would be nice though), but please show us some signs of life.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Agree... JM's footwork was nearly flawless in his Buffalo appearance. It only faltered on two throws and both were due to pressure in his face.

    He collects trademarks and cares about living his life his way.

    Dammit man! He's a rebel with a paycheck. A cowboy. A gunslinger. He's Johnny Fecking Football!

    Which won't last either if he busts. Now wouldn't that be a strange motivation...Johnny works hard and plays well for the fame, not for the love of the game? I was told he's immensely competitive, but his behavior Sunday didn't show any of that.

    So.... on his first drive his footwork was flawless? Jeez, with the buffalo defense essentially taking the series off - I'd hope Johnny would have good mechanics.

    I'd agree. One of his big flaws is taking off and running instead of looking to throw. That is something I believe you can work on and get better at.

  • Comparison Shmarison,

    All I know is this

    THERE WAS NOT ONE THING I SAW FROM JF THAT EVEN REMOTELY LOOKED LIKE AN NFL QUARTERBACK!!

    Even all the other rookies like Carr, Bongwater, etc etc at least look like a NFL QUARTERBACK.

    JF looked completely outclassed. I hope and pray it was a fluke, but I dont think it is.

    The secret is, no one wants to play hard for that jackwad, plain and simple.

    Last week he was more Johnny Fucking a Football. "Live life his way" , translation -" I Believe I can be a superstar without growing up and showing some responsibile behavior when necessary to do my job ". Let's hope he learned that isn't true last Sunday
  • Got a few more trademarks for Johnny to add to his list of trademarks.

    Johnny "Midget"

    Johnny "Bust"

    Johnny "sucks"

    Johnny "Noodle Arm"

    Johnny "Ducks"

    Which last week? This last week, AKA the CIN game, or last last week, AKA the IND game.

    If this week's game is Carolina, last week's game must have been Cincy.
