Dak is good. Johnny is better. Sadly, off-field issues are causing Johnny's football exile. He has himself to blame. That doesn't change the fact that he's better than Prescott.

why does it matter what he says or does? Do his actions affect your daily life?
quote:...and you answer that it's sad that he appears to be throwing not just his football talent and life of luxury away, but at this rate even his ability to lead a normal life is in jeopardy. So again how does that negatively affect your daily life?quote:Actually, yes. When I get comments almost daily of, "What's up with that Manziel kid?" I'd say yes, it affects my life.

quote:Oh he's still Johnny. Just Johnny.
I no longer refer to him as Johnny. "Shane Falco" is more fitting.
quote:I've heard this several times from people on here and the media. How is it too late for him to change his life around??? Johnny is what 23 years old.
Wake up. It is likely too late now anyway.

That's it. Blame the probably assaulted woman.

Maybe the OP or someone else can explain to me why it is too late for him to get his act together and start ripping it up in the nfl.
quote:It's good to see that not everyone on here are classless dbags filled with hate, shame, and embarrassment.
All you that are saying he is no longer a football player and that Dak is better...
Johnny played well last year. If not for him making terrible choices off the field, he'd be Cleveland's starter this year.
None of us will experience the high of being on a national pedestal like he was.
Likewise, none of us will have to endure the derision and spite of that same nation as it relishes in witnessing the pedestal come crashing down.
If it makes you feel better to join the mob trashing him, go ahead. I choose to hold out hope that, somehow, Johnny's best days are ahead of him.
quote:The list of great QB's that struggled for two, three or even four years is not short. Not to say Johnny was on the verge of greatness but a few starts on a crap team is not enough for anyone to say he didn't have the physical abilities. We all know he didn't have his head on straight and that was obviously the reason he wasn't starting.
"Played well" is a stretch. It was an up and down mix of competent and poor, with a few dashes of vintage Johnny thrown in. At best, you'd say "he was only little below average despite being a 2nd year player on a team without much offensive talent" and give him an incomplete. But not playing horribly while on a bad team is not the same as playing well on a good team, so there's no way to know whether he has what it takes at this point to be a qb I the NFL.
Given all the other baggage, there's little reason to take a chance on him.

Most incoming QB's are going to take longer than two seasons to be consistently effective.

For the record, last season Johnny Manziel played, by far, with more energy, persistence and determination than any other Browns player ! In his last game against the Chiefs, where he rushed for 108 yards and was only one play away, at the end, from knocking the Chiefs from entering the playoffs, Andy Reid was so impressed, ( and releived ) he gave Johnny a big hug ! After the Crowley matter is settled and hopefully soon, THE COMEBACK WILL BEGIN ! !
