    I have to think Le Bron would have seen enough of his antics to tell him to get his act together.

    Yeah... where is James in all of this?

    He can't play because he has a sore muscle.

    I would think any starting QB in college could hook that shit up. Division 2 even.

    ...

    And why didn't he close these deals?:

    OK, I can maybe see why he didn't close the last one.

    Thank you ... I am a huge Office Space fan ... yet was not getting the reference.

  • Just because of this thread, I might just start watching office space right now. Starting with Michael Bolton locking the doors and turning the volume down on his rap when a black man walks past.

  • Indeed, Office Space is an all-time favorite of mine too.

    He has already stated he will be working out with George Whitfield again in the off season.

    He has? Where?

    Can't locate it now. Think it was on an A&M website.

  • Hey Peter man, watch your cornhole bud.

  • I didn't know the best place to put this, but fun tidbit about the top QB's in the NFL:

    "The top 20-rated quarterbacks in the NFL this year played an average of 3.7 seasons of college football and spent an average of 4.2 years on campus (including redshirt seasons). They averaged 36.4 college starts"

  • "I never liked Manziel as a prospect."

    That tainted the article which is another in a long line of self serving I told you so's.

    One thing I think he failed to get a real handle on is JF's missing meetings. If I'm the Browns FO I insist to JF that if he wants a future in this organization, then he will be required to attend alcohol education classes. You can do this without calling someone an alcoholic since true ones go right to denial anyway. But you can insist he learn that if alcohol has caused you problems such as oversleeping, failure to set alarms, missing work or rehab. etc., then you have a problem with alcohol. It is much harder to deny it has caused you problems than it is to deny alcoholism. It's a tactic I took often with people in a 30 year counseling career. Best thing is you use no labels such as "addict", "alcoholic" etc. and stick to the facts of what problems it has caused in a person's life.

    Alcohol might be a symptom, and could exacerbate the situation but it isn't the cause. JF is mentally weak, with little impulse control. That's not the makeup of an NFL quarterback.

    And an interesting tidbit it be, but that's all it is.

    Always makes me wonder when an odd split is made as in this case. Why 20? 16 is half. Top ten is a cliché. Twenty makes me think "drew the line after seeing the data".

    Would be even more interesting if data was compiled for all starters and for each quartile.

    I find it hard to believe that a QB who won the Heisman Trophy is 'mentally weak'. I think he is just used to being a star and didn't put out the effort. Lazy.

  • You know, I'm really starting to think he really is trying to get out of Cleveland, by whatever means necessary.

    Because nobody is this stupid, right?

    Right?!?

    Its starting to feel like him and gordon both are.

  • Johnny Manziel is a cancer to our beloved Cleveland Browns

    Look at how the punk acts off the field and on the field. He is no good!
    He got his ass handed to him in his first start, unlike Shaw who was OK in his debut. And he was an UDFA on the practice squad!
    Manziel's lack of football IQ, development, and off-the-field antics are no good for our team. He hasn't proven dick in the NFL this year except for the fact that he can throw a party. BIG WHOOP!

    Even though I wasnt necessarily a Hoyer fan the past couple of weeks, he is the guy the Browns need to resign and give another chance. HE HAS EARNED IT! Regardless of how he performed the past few weeks, he has the determination and resilience that a coach wants in a QB. Not saying he is the long term solution. But I feel if given another shot and given another year to progress with the WRs I think he will be better than this year. I dont think that guy is on our team yet. Look for Cle to pick a QB up in the later rounds of the draft. Someone with size, arm strength, and is a student of the game. Not a goddamn reckless fool.

    We will probably go 8-8 next year if Farmer pulls out a ridiculous draft and signs some quality FAs and gets rid of Glamziel.

    But if Johnny 3 and Out starts.... its going to be a looooooong year.
