Lebron helping johhnyhollywood with PR advise is like a McDonald's cook trying to help a bum with financial planning.

I heard that question asked several times within the last week & you can't be serious! The Cavs certainly have at least a shot at making a run next season & would have to be one of the favorites in the following season barring bad luck.

What would make anyone believe that the Browns will be favored to even win their own division within the next few years let alone go to and win the SB? Manziel is still young & unproven, Gordon is expected to be suspended for at least the upcoming season. Sure - they have talent in various areas, but a SB pick within the next few years (when they have never been to even one) sounds a little insane.

Johnny Manziel admitted publicly what has been evident on the field during the first week of Cleveland Browns training camp: His learning curve is steep.

"It's a process for me," Manziel said Thursday in his first media session since camp opened July 26. "It's not something that I should just come in here naturally because I played well in college and just know how to run this offense.

"It's a complete 180 from everything that I've been used to. And it's going to take time. It's a process coming from a spread, air raid system in college to a pro style system that's very unfamiliar [to] me as far as terminology and routes."

He quickly added it's not something he can't master but the words for the first-round draft pick were telling. He termed his first week full of "ups and downs" and admitted "it's still a struggle" until he is totally comfortable with play calls and the system.

Just as telling are the actions on the field. Though offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said he has yet to judge who is ahead or behind in the quarterback chase, Manziel has yet to take a single snap with the starters.

"I'm not worried about one or the other being ahead right now," Manziel said of himself and Brian Hoyer. "It's me making sure I know what I need to know, getting out there and running the offense and not having any mistakes. Once I go through a couple days with non-mental errors or getting to where I need to be every single time, then I'll feel a lot better."

Sportsguy9695, I think it's time for you to stop with these threads of yours. We can all go to ESPN anytime we want.

I read the nfl.com story referenced in that ^. Says that Manziel has been hard working, he is a fast learner, and that he has a good grasp of the playbook. Says that Manziel has been competent so far, but he hasn't been dazzling. The story also claims that older players on the team tend to favor Hoyer starting, while the younger guys tend to favor Manziel.

Also heard that Hoyer will start Friday night at Detroit.
