tOfficial "Johnny Manziel" Superthread

Should I change my name to Captain Obvious?

No not yet....

Even if Bama won that game I still think he comes out... He was done with college ball...

 

[Inquisitor95]

The Browns are on their up and the Cowboys are on their way down...

No. Dallas has perfected going sideways.

And the Browns have been on their way up like Anna on her way up the mountain.

Lol. It comes down to QB play. Its really hard to win w/o at least a decent QB. Cleveland has a decent D and some playmakers on O. Need a guy to get them the ball. I think Hoyer can do some things and really hope Johnny Cleveland pans out. Biggest boom or bust enigma I can recall in the draft's recent history.

I'm a JFF fan. I hope he works out for you guys.

If Bama wins that game, Johnny Football is still at A&M.

Well he wouldn't have got the heisman

 

[RobToxin]

Well he wouldn't have got the heisman

I agree. And, without the Heisman, I think he stays another year.

As a football fan, though, I hope he can help the Browns finally become relevant again if for no other reason than to make the Steelers-Browns rivalry interesting again.

A Cowboys fan has the gall to criticize another team's drafting. Classic! We have the infamous Weeden and Richardson draft. Outside of that, here's the rundown:

2013 - Barkevious Mingo - played in every game last yr as a rookie
2012 - Weeden & Richardson - terrible draft
2011 - Phil Taylor - Started almost every game since being drafted
2010 - Joe Hadan - Started almost every game since, ProBowl 2013
2009 - Alex Mack - Started every game since, ProBowl 2010 & 2013
2008 - No 1st round picks
2007 - Joe Thomas - 6x ProBowl

Weeden was awful and I won't call this pick awful, but it does make you wonder, based on NFL skillset.

Outstanding job getting a 1st and 3rd rounder for #4...BUF I don't get that one.

Browns ticket sales soar after Manziel pick

NFL Browns sell 1,500 tickets in 12 hours - ESPN

I didn't expect anything less.

 

[mcnabb7542]

This better work, Browns fans have been shat on enough....

 

[Shanemansj13]

They want to consistently go 12-4 now, with Hoyer or Manziel.

I know right

 

[TDs3nOut]

Expectations are through the roof! LOL

I actually hope that Manziel is a good player. Always thought he was fun to watch in college, though he will probably have to reign in his game somewhat now.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

I'm rooting for the Browns, I like the makeup of this team. Get another weapon or 2 on offense, get some additonal help for the o-line. The defense is there, they could be very good.

 

[mrwallace2ku]

Is Manziel's #8 available on the Browns roster?

 

[JDM]

And the new worst of the bunch...

 

[TDs3nOut]

Is Manziel's #8 available on the Browns roster?

The piece linked in the OP says that Manziel 2 jersey is selling like hot cakes!

 

[Shanemansj13]

Manziel press conference. Did tbey have these before Manziel came??

 

[Tharvot]

The Browns have had 1 MNF game since 2009 (including this year). If Johnny Football is even 1/2 way decent, I bet they land a game next year.

 

[Tharvot]

They want to consistently go 12-4 now, with Hoyer or Manziel.

Doesn't everyone? Ha!

I'd be ecstatic with 8-8.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Heart gets you so far...Vick plays with heart and talent and he still ends up on the bench injured. JM has the same style and about the same frame. People are right to question his durability.

That's why he can't run like a chicken with its' head cut off. Vick sacrifices his body too much, doesn't slid, and isn't smart. He needs to be a pocket passer first and scramble only when needed then slide.
