Did we also fuck up the Gilbert situation? Or do you see him as the uninterested non-professional hack he actually is?
In the second season Manziel proved he could play at a respectable level in the NFL Gilbert did not. So what the fuck are you talking about?

Manziel proved
No, he didn't.
This isn't some kind of inarguable fact - he's done nothing.

It is a fact, you just won't admit it because it shows you for the ass hole that you are.
You can't find too many of those so called experts Mark uses as proof of Jackson's qualifications who will agree with you.

Johnny is apparently telling people the Cowboys, Rams, and Chiefs are interested in him reported by Ed Werder at ESPN. Which he hasn't heard directly from them of course because that'd be collusion.
I can imagine though
"Hey Johnny you probably shouldn't take a selfie video giving the finger and chugging a bottle of don julio"
"Nah man it's cool the Cowboys, Rams, and Chiefs still want me"

That's collusion, plain & simple. You're not allowed to talk to a player under contract with another team until- pick a date. That date is not now.
My Lord that's sad...
lol... well can always start counting up... kind of a BC/AD thing...
We know the "talent assessment" debate has the legs to be a contentious topic for a long, long time.
The show must... you know...
Go on!
I didn't get that one Tour... I got a better one, see below.
You're some California fag who claims to be a Browns fan. I'll bet you and mz the pussy the pussy the pussy are best friends.
Speaking of Johnny Fags, suck this one up....
-
Johnny goes to Dallas and leads the Cowboy's to the playoff's after Romo goes down. Browns fans watch highlights of Manziel on ESPN every Sunday as he throwsTD to Dez Bryant. While Browns wallow in mediocrity.

Steve,
Johnny "proved" nothing. He flashed his capability in one game where the opponent played with a lead almost the entire way and was determined to make him beat them with his arm, if he could... and he couldn't. That was 2015 vs. PTG, and even that level of performance was not seen again.
Cinci today is a boys choir off the field compared to what it was a few years ago when they led the league in arrests... two years running IIRC. On-field? 2015 left Marv some work to do.
Won't get into your defense of another except to say you are 0 for 3.

Westside Steve is murdering everyone on this thread.

Kaep reportedly wants to go to New York.
Manziel to San Fran?

Of course you would say that. The Browns player who called Billy a 100% joke and others disagree....Seth Rollins calls out Manziel on WWE RAW:Westside Steve is murdering everyone on this thread.

love WSS. very talented musician. if i could play a chord or hit a note vocally as smooth as he does i think i might have given up everything and put all my money on red and made a move.
BUT
don't really get the defense of manziel (anymore). yeah, i know he's a kid and if anything, he's just doing the kid shit most of us did back in the day. i get it. most do. but when the roadmaster 3000 dies out on the highway for the 3rd or 4th time you don't stand next to it and go, what a great car! sorry, my fault for driving you too hard babe. no you finally realize you bought a piece of shit and start kicking the shit out of it while you wait for a tow truck.
i loved the gilbert pick but i realize that i was wrong and now have no defense when people say hey: shoulda drafted A, B or C instead............
but there's always next year!

I've been debating with steve for a little while over in the politics side, and I've *never* seen him as invested in a subject as this. It's almost enough for me to reconsider. Almost.

Steve - the facts are, he has shown some potential, but not enough, not nearly enough, to warrant keeping him around with the media frenzy every time he farts, the ill-discipline off the field, the lack of respect for and from the teammates. A new coach is looking to turn around the losing and 'suffocating' atmosphere in the locker room to one where everyone is striving to be the best, and Manziel is not conducive to that.
Perhaps he can go some place where winning is already a ritual, where there are so many good examples of people dedicated to their craft that he can't help but fall in line, like green bay or somewhere, and perhaps he turns it around. But it's not happening for him in Cleveland, and the sooner he's on a different team the better for all concerned.

His work ethic is horrible! His talent is NFL marginal. He is just a spoiled brat and cares about nothing but himself. plus it's becoming apparent he is prone to abuse women too. He sucks without adding a word about opioids, cocaine or alcohol. WHAT A PUSSSY!

but like I've said my friend no one else is striving to be the best. This is the worst team in the league and his play has not contributed to that sad fact.
Why are they so ill prepared? You tell me. Poor coaching? Lack of discipline? Laziness?

Like I've been saying over and over? The team you are describing isn't the Cleveland Browns, at least it hasn't been for many years. Sure send him to a quality team and he will be successful. Send anybody to a quality team and they will be better then they would be here recently.
Still who's the guy that advocates building a strong team and who are the guys thinking it will make a difference to shitcan every player they don't like?
I think you mentioned Green Bay in a post which is ironically the place Jerry Glanville banished Brett Favre to when he was drunk all the time.
Like Ghoolie said the kid is a weird son of a bitch, a good deal of this shit is his own fault but a good deal is a mesmerizing public who can't get enough TMZ.

Probably a combination of some or all of those things and more.

So they get rid of him, and probably also Gilbert.

Absolutely, it's a match made in heaven until it gets to the NFL where it becomes a distraction for the team and a drain on the management. Let him go to new york or LA.

Also as to the potential I have always considered the fact that his first year was impeded to a great extent by his own arrogance and lack of work ethic. The second season he took seriously and worked very hard learn the system and made huge leaps. Unless you want to call your precious Mike Pettine a liar.
Part of coaching 22 year old kids is dealing with that kind of shit. I'm sure Johnny expected high praise and a starting job for the effort he put in. Effort that doesn't come naturally to him so he felt he deserves praise and a starting job. I also don't think coach liked him in the first place and hated to start him even when he was forced to. I think that was counterproductive to the kids development and to the team.
Here's my music example.
let's say I get hired in a Key West club and take long breaks, show up late for the gigs and play the same shit everyday. Club owner has me working the 4 o'clock show. I kind of thought since they hired me from a place where I was King shit I should be doing the 8 o'clock show.Well I bust my ass I learned a dozen new songs I'm there on time and put everything into my performance. Still the bar manager doesn't like me because the owner of the bar had seen me at Put in Bay and was the one who insisted on hiring me. The manager makes it clear that as long as he's in charge I'm doing the 4 o'clock show.
I would certainly be pissed off and especially if I were a younger man probably let it affect my attitude. Especially because I believe, & I probably would do really well at the prime 8 o'clock show.

So it's all Mike Pettine's fault? Manziel pisses away his first year, then when he's finally looking like he might have potential, decides to piss it away again, and for that reason, we should give him a pass? I'm sorry, but you expect a certain level of professionalism from your players.
In fact, I'm pretty sure that Pettine was on board with him starting the end of the season after McCown got injured, but then what does Manziel do? Exactly the opposite of what was asked of him. "Johnny, we're making you the starter for the next six games whether Josh is injured or not. Show us what you can do on the field, and keep a low profile off it" "Hey thanks boss!" "Hey everybody, I'm gonna start, let's go party our asses off!"
I really don't get why you're defending him so staunchly. He has shown flashes of NFL potential, but, as has been said many times, he would have to be a lot, lot better to warrant such off-field distractions.
-
Don't let your emotions run away with you Chris, I blame Johnny for the first year.
I blame coach Mike Pettine for most of what went on in your number to where Johnny wasn't even a factor. We got good quarterback play out of Josh McCown and Johnny when he stepped in. The team was still 3 + 13.
And as I've said the off the field stuff does it warrant all this outrage.
