Jonathan Paul Manziel
-
The video is like eight seconds long. Come one what was the big deal. Its not like he had blood all over his suit and told everybody to lie to the Police in the limo. Oh wait that's a different "Leader" that was in Baltimore. People need to stop acting like everything Manziel does is horrible. This guy is at a bar singing with a bottle in his hand. SOOOOO WHATTTT. Pettine is terrible and he will be gone after this year. Manziels only problem is that he is immature. He will grow out of that type of stuff.

To those that say "he did nothing wrong". For a 22 year old with money? Nope, but for a guy who's supposed to be the face of the franchise? Grow out of that stuff? I'm not so sure. If he's got a substance abuse problem, hanging out in bars is the wrong place to be. Damn, can't people see after the girlfriend incident, I would bet the ranch the Browns staff got with Manziel and laid out very strict guidelines as to what he could, and couldn't do? I've said a couple of times in this thread- the Browns know DAMN EXACTLY WELL why Johnny was in rehab. If he couldn't follow what he was supposed to do- well, he's potentially pissing his NFL career down the drain. It had to be a pretty serious violation of those conditions to get benched. On top of that, his actions make Pettine look like an idiot for having to change course.

Doesn't look like it took slippin Jimmy and suga ray long to finally see the real lil john. Very unfortunate and sad that yet another browns QB busted after 2 years. Nonetheless, while most of us will appreciate the irony of why he failed here, his little possy will completely misconstrue what the actual issue is with him.
This isn't about drinking, this isn't about rapping in a club, this isn't about drinking while rapping in a club. So if you're sitting there pissed off at Pettine for benching lil john, then its very likely youre only 22 and wish you could be manziel.
Zombo said it well...the kid finally gets the keys to the offense, and his first action is to go celebrate rather than work. The main problem here is lil john made an agreement with the club and he broke that agreement. This is called accountability...to those of you youngons that are obviously unfamiliar.
Like it or not, the browns are business, and that business has a bottom line. You don't throw good money on bad, and ole johnny boy has proven over and over again to be bad money. Its only a matter of time before the kid really fucks up, and I commend the team for shutting this whole circus down before he does anymore damage.
It doesn't matter if he's the second coming of sipe, he can't be trusted to o what best for his team or teammates.

Nah he was just out knocking up actresses, then ditching them for supermodels. Good example.
While winning Superbowls and being arguably the best QB in the league.

Great stuff here ^ RED- Mod edit by Hoorta- man I can see the train wreck coming too, I hope I'm wrong.

It shouldn't fucking matter what you do off the field if you can perform on it
Jerry Jones, is that you?
-
Exactly.
It shouldn't fucking matter what you do off the field if you can perform on it. Johnny performed on it last week. Is he Tom Brady? No. But we're no Patriots, either.
Johnny hasn't shown the ability to play anything near a Brady level.
Tom had all of his business in the media AFTER he was a superbowl champ and multiple all pro.
You agreed with a point that directly counters yours.
-
I was so excited to see Manziel play this Monday at home against the Ravens. I'd be surprised if Browns didn't cut Manziel, either this year or during the offseason. I hate it, I just hate it. I'm completely over the entire situation. It's so...draining.

WHAT THE FUCK PETTINE~~~!!!!!
YOU SPINELESS SON OF A BITCH! GET THE FUCK OUT OF CLEVELAND YOU SOFT MOTHERFUCKER!
I WATCHED THAT VIDEO... WHAT THE FUCK WARRENTED BENCHING OUR FIRST ROUND STARTING QB?
YOU SORRY FAGGOT, KICK ROCKS PETTINE... AND TAKE YOUR SHITTY DC AND YOUR SHITTY SCHEME, THAT'S LAST IN THE NFL BTW, WITH YOU~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ray Rice would agree...

Somewhere in there i think Johnny lied to Pettine. He didn't hook up with 1 model but 5-6 that weekend.
Sorry, just not allowed because the Walmart glasses wearing coach of ours just can't get any himself.
-
Lol comparing what Johnny did to domestic violence?
-
Well I'm very disappointed.
First of all I don't think what he did was any big deal at all. That being said, if I've been given an opportunity like that and told by my boss just to keep my nose clean in public for a couple of days and I couldn't do that then shame on me.
Another thing that I'm even more disappointed by is the fact that it's obvious that Mike Patton would rather be petulant than win games.
If Johnny was in fact the best chance to win last week I don't see what's changed except the coach has a bug up his ass. If he's made this decision on anything other than best chance then he's just an ass hole. Yes coach you're a tough guy, how's that working for the team?
And as I said before if there's a speck of truth in this fantasy about trading him to Dallas, the coach has cut off his nose to spite his face.

The Browns performance on the field is far more embarrassing than Johnny going out for a night. They are going to finish 3-13 at best. Can't we bench that pussy pettine?

PG, don't call Pettine spineless. It took brass balls to come to that decision. He was backed up by Farmer and Haslam, so don't put all the onus on Mike. Did you watch Tour's link of Pettine's interview? HE WAS VISIBLY UPSET. Shouting right back at ya. It's plain as mud Johnny violated some condition of his post rehab "probation" in a big way.

An opposing viewpoint Brother Steve, and well put. I think the first bold is what happened. If Johnny was (previously) told to lay off the public party circuit, and couldn't do it- well, he's got either an authority problem, or a substance problem that's going to land him out of football in short order. My memory got jogged that Chris Carter said last year- Johnny probably won't wise up until he hits rock bottom. He's not there yet- but it's starting to come into sight.

To those that say "he did nothing wrong". For a 22 year old with money? Nope, but for a guy who's supposed to be the face of the franchise? Grow out of that stuff? I'm not so sure. If he's got a substance abuse problem, hanging out in bars is the wrong place to be. Damn, can't people see after the girlfriend incident, I would bet the ranch the Browns staff got with Manziel and laid out very strict guidelines as to what he could, and couldn't do? I've said a couple of times in this thread- the Browns know DAMN EXACTLY WELL why Johnny was in rehab. If he couldn't follow what he was supposed to do- well, he's potentially pissing his NFL career down the drain. It had to be a pretty serious violation of those conditions to get benched.

How is Manziel supposed to be the face of the franchise? Hes been a backup for two years. And as far as the seriousness of the video,I don't see it. I really think it goes alot further than what we can see (Pettine/farmer issues). This is a very dysfunctional organization. We really needed to see if Manziel was able to be the "Face of the Franchise". But that wont happen now. So we start over.But,we all should be used to that by now.

This is a judgement call, not a football call. They seem to act like babysitters with Manziel. I predicted at the start of the season that Austin Davis would end up starting. It's coming soon.
Farmer is scouting Goff and Paxton Lynch. I know nothing about these guys yet. But had he taken Bridgewater or Carr we might not be having this ridiculous,season.
The fans deserve better than this organization is giving. Hope it gets better but right now it's too bizarre and laughable!

So we start over.But,we all should be used to that by now.First round quarterback ARE drafted to be the face of the franchise. Problem for Johnny is he doesn't know how to "keep a low profile". Despite probably being told to do so, and by his own words that he would over the bye. He's lost the organizations trust, and he's probably on the way out. He's been the poster boy for TMZ for years, and if he's too dumb to not realize that- well, he's not very smart. If some no name like Meeder or Winston were out partying their ass off for a couple of years, they'd just have been quietly cut.
