    Because the coach is the face of the team.

    Not the general manager, not the owner and not the president. Tony Grossi has been anti Johnny since before he came to Cleveland.

    Is he a HC or JM apologist?

    There's no apology needed for the situation. He's the head coach and he's the guy you ask no matter what's going on with the team. I would say instead of getting your panties in a bunch about this he might want to be the apologist for the highest paid defense in the league.

    38 replies. 40 votes and thread labeled hot. So then there's that. Don't hate. It totally a legit question.

    Don't hate? Coming from you? That's rich. It still isn't a legitimate question it's bullshit no matter how many fish nip at the rubber worm.

    Like I said if he'd gotten a DUI, or if the crazy bitches face had been smashed up, as it would have been had he bounced her mug off the dashboard... it might be legitimate to wonder what to do with him.

    Think about it. If this story or about a Pittsburgh Steeler who had a loud and noisy fight with his head of a girlfriend even we wouldn't give a shit.

    The only correct answer is to cut him if he can't play, (whether he goes to church or a combination beer joint whorehouse crackhouse opium den). And if he can, just get the fuck over it.

    from what i heard, she has a clean record...she's pretty damn smart, and little chonnie is still a drunk...hmmmm...

    Who was drunk in this situation and who wasn't?

    if it was her, that is still not good for chonnie. One thing rehab should have taught him, was not only can he not drink anymore, but he cannot hang around drunks or go back to places, i.e. bars etc, that he once used to hang out at.

  • I normally loathe reading Tony Grossi, but at least he's asking the same question I am.

    Where in the hell was Farmer, Haslam, or even Scheiner Monday afternoon while the HC is being grilled about JM?

    Let's face it, Pettine isn't the guy responsible for bringing the circus to town.

    Great read. . .

    Couldn't agree more. This is the GM and an owner issue. The problem is neither Haslam or Farmer want to answer the real question which is, "you used a first round draft pick on a guy who doesn't contribute on the field and is a constant headache to the organization, where do you go from here". Also there would probably be a couple of "Ray do you feel that your absence due to suspension has hampered the teams decision making", "Ray do you feel between the Josh Gordon issue, Justin Gilbert's driving incident and the off the field distractions of Johnny Manziel, that there isn't organizational control" and "Jimmy we are two seasons into the Pettine/Farmer era and it appears that the results are eerily similar to previous seasons". Neither likes to answer hard questions and they hung Pettine out to dry.

  • West Side Steve is on fire, and even Tour doesn't think this is grounds for terminating the kid.

    (Psst, other people, you're wrong).

    During the deflategate shit storm, you saw more of Kraft than Bill.

    A competent FO would show a little more unity than what's coming out of Berea.

    At least my panties are dry, cause I'm not a charter member of the JM knob riding club.

  • Tell josh's boy with his same hair style to get rid of those Weeden eyeball looks. Not in Cleveland please.. Manziel for some reason is in the hands of the league. None of our FO can say anything & Coach Pet is their to talk Game prep about players. If the NFL only goes by video & Police Report only. JM did not Hit his women in the head. Will they believe a drunk women, now that's a whole different story..

    yeah you know when the neighbors call when shit is getting broke in your house and people are screaming and the guy comes out with a knife wound in his gut and the woman say 'he assaulted me' with no evidence whatsoever.....yet they arrest the man and throw him into the 'pigpen' jail cell where that knife wound is now fuckable.

  • @douche-nozzle said:

    I think it's pretty clear what he has.

    A playground mentality.....on and off the field.

    A lack of talent at this level.

    On-field... Talent is there... buried under the playground, but that has already changed some. The playground urge will never be gone completely, but that is a good thing. You've seen it from Ben over the years. It can be the source of magical improvisation. What you cannot have is a steady diet of it... just can't at this level... and that is already not the case.

    Off-field... I'd say maturity/demons rather than playground, but I think I know what you are driving at. In any case while there's hope on that front as well, it's the bigger concern.

  • @douche-nozzle said:

    No.....I was referring to Vick's lauded travels. He was an amazing athlete who couldn't play the QB position but was hyped due to his heritage. Then he commits atrocities and goes to jail and is then mentored by the NFL (Tony Dungee) to bring him back for one more attempt at being the first elite black QB. Then he is kept around when he is absolute garbage.

    Sad but true.

    As far as the others you mention, you can see they did the same thing with Kaepernick, and it's waaaay too early to tell with Winston and Newton who are probably the best of the bunch.

    Winston, yes, way to early. But Newton has proven his capability as an NFL QB. Not superstardom yet. Needs more success in postseason...but he seems to on his way. I would take him now.

    I was harsh on Newton the last couple seasons. NFL defenses appeared to had caught up with him and his reads were just.. slow.

    However his footwork has been much more consistent, he's been more decisive and has become a better leader for his team. He may very well raise his ceiling more throughout the course of this season and beyond.

  • if every camera lens wasn't pointed at the kid 24/7 he might've progressed further at this point.

    he has to separate himself from social media and his gf that seems to be obsessed with it.

    Dead on Tia. Still think S. Smith would have made him even better quicker & the hell out of our division. Sticking with tread next time you see Manziel, Eagles, Houston(Hoyer got ya) or Big D, Dez will want out..
