    His off field actions have previously lead to him NOT being able to perform on the field to the degree capable.

    The coaching staff feels he might be slipping back into that pattern. Honestly, how in the fuck is that so hard to understand?

    If he isn't preparing as much as humanly possible, as much as your backup QB (McCown) then he clearly isn't the best option for this team.

    Previously has nothing to do with currently. He has improved according to Pettine himself.

    The same guy he also lied directly to his face as well.

    Has everything to do with currently.

    Funny how we don't see pictures of any other QB's out during the season do we? Not any of them. Forget the great QB's... You don't see pictures of Derek Carr or Ryan Tannehill or Blake Bortles out partying on their bye week do we? But according to you they all do it. Maybe they're all just not fucking idiots and don't pose for fucking pictures when "they're keeping a low profile."

    The dude is a fucking moron and he brought this one on himself. He was told what was expected of him by his employer and he said yeah ok....and walked out the door and flipped both middle fingers at the organization who employs him. Fuck him and all the idiots supporting this assclown.

    And Pettine isn't getting fired. Get used to it.

    You know why we don't see pictures? Because nobody gives a fuck. It's not news. It's only news with Manziel, because WE think it's news. Because Cleveland fans are like children, they don't quite understand how the rest of the world works.

    Pettine's gone. Get the fuck used to it. He'a a useless fucking chump and anyone hitching his wagon to him is stupid.

    This franchise is a fucking joke.

    Worst franchise in professional sports, and one of the worst fan bases as well.

    Screw the soap opera of how 'devastating' it is. If he performs he should play. Not like he held up a bank after drinking 2 quarts of MD20-20 and smoking crack.

    Mike really- worst run franchise? I'll grant you that. But hell- we've been fed shit sandwiches for 15 years plus, and the natives are very restless. Crap, the Beagles fans want to run Kelly out of town already- we'd be doing cartwheels here if the Browns ever made it to 10-6. Johnny Juicer didn't do himself, the team AND the Fans any favors going Party Animal (for the XXXth time) over the Bye- can we at least agree on that?

  • OK, just saw this one- from the Guy who did the "Factory of Sadness Video- funny stuff. 🙂

    I have no idea what this means?

  • Mike Polk is a fucking faggot douchebag. He's not even funny... That one, ONE factory of sadness video was kinda funny, kinda. But then he went drunk uncle and recited it verbatim for 6 months. He's a bum comedian picking the lowest hanging fruit. He gets zero credit from me.

  • ^ The PoG Hug of Greatness....... Mike will go on to win an Oscar now.

  • I bet The Snake would have slapped lil Johnny just for drinking pink champagne. Then kicked his ass for pretending to be a NFL qb.

    John Belushi was a huge talent that often rendered himself too impossible to work with. Johnny Manziel is the football version of this. The only person he can blame for his own actions is himself.

    The only question left to answer is how much rope is Jerry Jones going to give him?

    Absolutely Retard comparison

    LOL Retard

    God bless ya! I knew somebody would think I was a model for Retard on this one. I'm probably a better a model for half shirts designed by National Lampoon when FLABS is the acronym for Flugel's Abs.

    I meant the Belushi comparison because I read on how increasingly difficult it got to extract the talent he was born with to the screen. For example, blowing off countless scheduled film sessions had a big parallel to our Blutarsky at QB that didn't know the playbook when it was time for him to start as a rookie. It pissed off other actors who were contracted for the same movie like Manziel turned off teammates. And why? He was out catching a buzz at Cavs games during the week. Then there's the mood swings of an addict those around Belushi weren't always comfortable on and off the screen. Johnny's version of this is a little alcohol induced domestic violence.

    This year, he got the starting job again and ended up repeating history in terms of how much it meant to him. Like Belushi, who was self destructing, he's totally fine with all work in the rear view mirror. I can't trust lip service that doesn't play straight pool so I go by his actions.

    I was one of his biggest fans on draft day and throughout most of this year. Now I gotta find my id ten form to sign, which looks like this in caps IDIOT.

  • The guy Ive compared him to several times and a perfect fit..... Todd Marinovich.......

    The parallels are uncanny......

    LOL! Very uncanny. I could never spell his last name right to the extent my spell checker said knock it off dumb ass. So I just went the safe route with Marijuanavich.

  • @diehardbrownsfan said:

    Wasn't referring to you. The personal lives of these players I don't care about. All I care about is their performance on the field. Period.

    Well, Johnny's personal life has affected his ability to perform on the field- because he couldn't lay off the party circuit for one stinking week. When you tell the coach (and the media) one thing, do another, and then lie about it- draw your own conclusions.

    The only issue that matters here is insubordination. A head coach can not afford to be made to look ridiculous if I'm a quote Jack Woltz

    The rest is bullshit.

    (now admit it, who supported Bernie Kosar when he was insubordinate?)

    LOL! I know exactly what you're doing and it's masterful. Here's the chance for the Todd Philcox Football Follies fan club to be heard. Where are ya Ghoolie?

    All that damn Kosar did was lead us to 3 AFC Championship Games especially considering how many playoff games we won before and after Kosar. I'd say that's a pretty big difference in terms of what Kosar accomplished vrs what Manziel has right down to how much of the playbook they were willing to know. There was a big difference in commitment regardless of how much each guy liked to party in his 20s. If Manziel had already proven he had full command of the playbook - nobody would give a rat that he likes to party like a kid in his early 20s.

    Bernie was the QB who transcended the University of Miami football program from the Jim Kelly 6-6 to beating a much more talented/heavily favored Nebraska team in the National Championship as a red shirt freshman. Guess what QB he started over? Vinny Testaverde, who later choked in the National Championship game throwing a bunch of INTs. Guess what started getting top local football prospects more interested in the U? National Championship #1... Pretty soon, that program no longer required an elite QB to carry the team because they started getting enough talent that could carry QBs that weren't NFL material like Walsh, Erickson, Toretta, etc.

    So what came next for Kosar? The team that grew old enough to get Sam Rutigliano fired with a piss poor record drafted Kosar, who would play QB in the NFL playoffs for us as a rookie before leading us to our first AFC Championship Game 1 season later. In each of the first 2 AFC Championships - Bernie put us in position to win late in the game. 1 time after getting the lead late where only a TD could tie us with 98 yards, the top ranked AFC D and 1 minute 58 seconds remaining with our homefield advantage - I can't blame a QB that got us enough points to be ahead by 7 points the last time he had the ball in regulation. Another time, we were a fumble at the goal line from tying Denver with 38 points the last time we had the ball. I'm sure some will inform us how much better it is to sell tickets to remaining home games at preseason prices with 6 games to go while we're partying like it's 1999.

    Just like Byner, Kosar went and got his Superbowl ring elsewhere from an even dumber franchise that needed him to start and win a playoff game for the injured starter. This was such a dumb QB as Ghoolie puts it that Dan Marino's game winning TD pass vrs the Jets came when the idea to fake spiking a pass to stop the clock came from Kosar so Marino could hit an uncontested WR in the end zone. We don't need any more winners like that around here. We're getting spoiled rotten here with winning zero playoff games since the 94-95 season. That's only 22 years ago... We've won 1 playoff game (just a wildcard game) since Kosar left. We didn't even win a playoff game when we had a league MVP playing QB here in 1980 so I never understood the hatred for Bernie up against what we've accomplished through all other QBs between 1970 and 2015.

    Nobody knows what shook out except the 2 guys that confessed to wishing they handled the parting of ways much differently. I'm good with that today.

  • The day Kosar had an ankle injury, sometime in the first half..vs the Jets?

    and stayed in the game, for the rest of the game, and WON THE GAME, in overtime maybe....

    I'll take that kind of "insubordination" anytime. You draft guys who love the game.

    Kosar was in perfect control of himself back in the day. He lives in pain from all

    the broken bones and tears from getting the hell beaten out of him.

    Asswipe Buttichek let Kosar get the hell beaten out of him.

    Buttichek learned a hard lesson from being stupid with the Browns - he went to a talented but losing Patriots team, and DRAFTED OFFENSIVE LINEMEN, which he NEVER did in Cleveland, because he was

    a dipstick, and yes, Mike Lombardi was an ignorant slug, wouldn't let buttichek draft troubled

    Warren Sapp.

    Even drafted a kicker in the 4th round in 06.

    But Johnny Manziel had his chances, and blew it after being named the starter,

    all last year while being a backup, drank way too much in college....

    Just woulda never drafted him at all. Canton Mike will vouch for me on that. JM just wasn't a fit.

    Can't blame asswipe lombardi on that one...

  • A lot of you want to get rid of Johnny.You say he not got what it takes to succeed talent wise. Well with some off. weapons Manziel is our q.b.going forward next yr. He has showed he has improved each game ,he has played this season. The haters will say he won't be here next yr. not so fast Haslam loves Johnny because he knows he a winner and ultra competive. Draft Bosa and fill the rest of the draft with off. players let Johnny play to his skill set and he will make believers of all you doubters.

  • Can we just admit hoyer is the best and most winningest quarterback we had since 99' and the fans pressured us to get rid of him? He's on a playoff team right now, when he was here he made our OL look incredible with his fast release. Just saying - screw Manziel who has been nothing but a scrub.
