Remember at Texas A&M when Manziel would scramble around and heave it up late to Mike Evans? Well that doesn't work in the NFL. The kid has good talent, but he has to change the way he plays to succeed in the NFL.
I've called him "Johnny Fathead". Right now it's 3rd qtr, and he's 6-13 for 60 yards and 2 ints. Looks like after today's game, his head will shrink down a few sizes.
I thought Cleveland's coach made a rash decision benching Hoyer after last week. He caved to the talking heads...and they will lose BIG! It's 23-0 going to the 4th...and Manziel is totally inept!
I still wanna know who in the Rams war room wanted to draft him over Donald and Martin.

I've said this since he was at A&M. He's going to bust harder than a virgin at a porn shoot.
You saw him float late passes over the middle in college, and get away with it. You saw the head drop and feet shuffle when that first read was open. Yes he has some physical abilities, but he has to change the way he plays.I'm not calling him a bust yet. But like I said before the draft, I have serious concerns about his ability to transition to the NFL. The things he doesn't do well are the most important parts to NFL QBing.

What I didn't like to hear is that his work ethic hasn't been there in previous weeks. If you want to be great you have to put in a tireless amount of work.
I wasn't aware that anybody knows for sure that somebody was on his nuts...Lots of speculation, maybe I missed it...
Over the next half hour, several staffers pitched the idea of trading up for Manziel. Taking him with a third first-round selection, they reasoned, would be less threatening to Bradford, who'd remain the incumbent quarterback for at least 2014. Also, as one person put it to Fisher: "This isn't the Johnny Manziel of two hours ago. It's a guy who's mad at the world because he keeps getting passed over, and wants to take it out on everyone."
