Manziel comparisons?

  • rydawg5
    Watching Manziel in action almost reminds me of a "poor man's" Doug Flutie.

    not saying Flutie was equipped to be a great quarterback but definitely was creative and was sometimes good enough to be effective for multiple games in NFL.

    I think Manziel won't be a QB in the NFL very long is what I'm saying.

    Who does he remind you of?

    Looking like a solid Jarmacus Russell.

    His skill set is not built for the NFL, anyone who isn't biased can see it. He can't throw and anticipate from the pocket, average arm strength and poor accuracy. He wants to take off as soon as he gets the chance, won't last.

    Highly regarded prospect.

    Fell to late in the first round.

    Drafted by Cleveland.

    So far (in a very small sample size) has sucked.

    Johnny Manziel had 112 Pass yds in his 2 starts. Only Dan McGwire & Quincy Carter had fewer Pass yds in 1st 2 career starts...from ESPN Stats.

    Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodger, et al.

    Dan McGwire....damn
  • thavoice
    At this point in his career he has out thrown and out rushed Aaron Rodgers in his first season.

    6 quarters dude...don,t make it sound like 2 full games. Also, he had another 70 yards of passing go right through the hands of his wide receivers...all on 3rd down conversions. Don't you people pay attention to what happens on the field? Then you add in the 2-1 ratio in time of possessions and voila..you have low passing
    numbers.

    PlenTy of of great quarterbacks had far worse numbers in their first 2 starts.

    Who gives a shit about yards forfeited because the receiver didn't make the catch, dumbfuck? If we counted "dropped-passes yardage" every other QB's numbers would be inflated just like your boyfriends and he'd still suck in comparison.

    You should pay attention with what the OC said, Dufus. What the brilliant and elegant Kyle Shanahan said after the Bengal game. Unlike you and the mainstream media thinks, Manziel did his job very well...making plays...until the Browns defense staked him with a 17-0 deficit. THEN, he did what almost all rookies would do in that situation...he panicked.

    I was in high school. living in Pittsburgh and I watched first hand how the future hall of fame quarterback take 2 years to figure out how to play in the NFL. Oh yeah...and he had a rookie head coach back then too. But Manziel gets 6 quarters and out the door he goes. Is that it, Dufus?

    Johnny will wreck this league, just not in Cleveland. They ran Bellichek out of town too.

    You act like it's not Manziels fault they were down 17-0. Let me explain some football to you. After one team scores, the other team gets the ball. It wasn't the defenses fault they go 3 and out every time. 9 out 0f 12 drives…..3 and out…..

    And some WR's dropped passes? Wow-no Browns receiver has done that for any other QB have they?
