26CornerBlitz Posted December 16, 2014 Author Posted December 16, 2014 Kosar torches Browns, says Manziel will fail like all the others The Browns, much like the Jets, have a comical history of quarterback development, especially over the past 20 years. Knowing this, and sensing an opportunity to stoke an already unruly fan base, former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar unloaded on the organization Monday and suggested that Johnny Manziel is just another in a line of good quarterbacks who will fail in Cleveland. "We're limited with our weapons offensively and it is somewhat of a tough spot for Johnny given this team and given this organization," he said on WTAM-AM, via The Plain Dealer. "It's just a complete recipe for a disaster."

26CornerBlitz Posted December 16, 2014 Author Posted December 16, 2014 ruh-roh Johnny Manziel admits he could have worked harder all year http://larrybrownspo...d-harder/250318 Not a surprising admission. It was reported that he began spending extra time at the Browns' facility for extra film study only after they named him starter last week.
YoloinOhio Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Not a surprising admission.

Can't believe he admitted it.
IDBillzFan Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 I am not one of those that wants to use personal insults to describe him That's okay. I'll do it enough for both of us. Johnny Bench! [/thread]
ProcessAccepted Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Not all of them were, but Michael Irvin was all in! Crow city yesterday for him. Steve Mariucci had him scoring 3 TDs - 2 passing. He also didn't give our D a chance. Just shows any chump can do that job.

On the morning of the game, Mariucci put the Packers were on upset alert. He thought the Bills had a good chance to win as I recall it.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 17, 2014 Author Posted December 17, 2014 Greg Cosell: Johnny Manziel has almost no pocket skills Browns fans weren't impressed with the debut of Johnny Manziel, and neither were two of the league's preeminent tape-watchers. Unpacking Cincinnati's 30-0 trouncing of Cleveland, NFL Media's Mike Mayock praised the Bengals for executing a "beautiful game plan" that focused "11 sets of eyes" on Manziel to keep the rookie tethered between the tackles. "The problem is Manziel didn't want to stay in the pocket," NFL Films guru Greg Cosell wrote Tuesday on Yahoo! Sports. "He lacks any feel for the pocket, has almost no pocket patience and discipline and is very quick to move and play what I call 'random football' outside of the structure of the offense." What these two are saying is why I feel he'll ultimately flame out of the NFL.
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 not the first time I've heard of him basically checking out because he wasn't the starter. Can't believe he admitted it. Such a cop out. He's not good enough. He wasn't good this preseason. He is a gimmick QB who played in a great system in college with great talent around him. Obviously, it's still early and he is very young but I never thought he was a starting NFL QB.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) @NSalvs: this didn't take long... #BlueLightSpecial Merril Hoge: Whoever drafted Johnny Manziel should be fired ESPN analyst and former Steelers running back Merril Hoge took some heat Sunday morning for saying that Johnny Manziel has "first-round hype with sixth-round talent." The critics didn't have much to say after Manziel's 10-of-18 for 80 yards, 0- touchdown, 2-interception performance against the Bengals in a game in which the Browns were blanked, 30-0, and Manziel was sacked seven times. Now Hoge, who has previously criticized (and rightly, it turned out) Vince Young and Tim Tebow, thinks whomever is responsible for drafting Manziel should be canned.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Wow! @Andy_Benoit Someone very reputed in the QB world told me this past offseason that Manziel won't win 10 games in his NFL career. Edited December 18, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz

It’s a job for me now,” i mean, how was he ever supposed to realize that it was going to be a job and he would have to get serious and work. its not like EVERYONE was saying it.

You have to shut out the noise and be yourself.How'd that work out JF ? Just goes to show ya. Its hard to find a Franchise QB these days lol Edited December 24, 2014 by 3rdand12
LB3 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I think he's really starting to get it... Manziel’s tardiness today comes just days after he vowed to take his work more seriously. Apparently taking work seriously doesn’t include showing up to work on time." http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/12/27/report-browns-fine-johnny-manziel-for-being-late-for-treatment/
YoloinOhio Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) Maybe he was in da club with josh Gordon, who failed to show up at all and has been suspended for the last game of the season. This will greatly affect his FA status because he played 5 games instead of 6 and will be a RFA instead of a UFA. He was involved in a nightclub incident the night before he didn't show for walk through. @AdamSchefter: Josh Gordon's one-game suspension today could cost him millions. By being suspended for last game of season,... http://t.co/hMtBOP6iWG Edited December 28, 2014 by YoloinOhio
Kelly the Dog Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Maybe they suspended Gordon because they didnt want to lose him.
YoloinOhio Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) Maybe they suspended Gordon because they didnt want to lose him. I think they want to get rid of him, but are trying to get something for him. Pettine hates his effort and has been calling him out since TC. But he reportedly has been late to several team functions since he was reinstated and fined. It reached the point of suspension. @ProFootballZone Browns’ Josh Gordon has been late for numerous meetings http://t.co/92NgX49sJc Edited December 28, 2014 by YoloinOhio
