Johnny Football Starts his First Game in the NFL

[GatorStud]

Hasn't he been arrested yet and thrown into jail...

Who cares.:fingertap:

And you need to stop clicking on my threads that wound your heart with a monotonous languor.

What do Manziel and Payton have in common? They both never beat the Florida Gators.

 

[MatthewM.]

He will stink in the league

Powerful arm that can make all the NFL throws

Ive seen stuff from scouts/analysts that knock his arm strength actually, don't really know... to me, he always seemed to get the ball where he wanted it but the experts seem to think he doesnt have much arm strength. Not that it is required, manning has a limp noodle for an arm and he does alright, in the regular season.

There were many scouts/analysts that had the same knock on your boy, Aaron Rodgers. They kept nay saying about his lack of arm power. Rodgers - lack of power. LOL.
Phil Sims got on a jag about Andrew Luck preaching "But the one thing I don't see, I just don't see big-time NFL throws." You go, Phil. :)
Merrell Hoge and Skip Bayless were adamant about the superiority of RGIII over Luck. Now who can question the brilliance of these two soothsayers.

A plate of crow, anybody? Anybody?

As far as Johnny Football's arm power. Who knows? Lets wait and see.

Really? Scounts.Inc also thinks Alvie is and talks out his pooper.

Manziel is taller than Seahawk's Wilson … and he leaves the pocket to buy time like Wilson. Can't he be another Russel?

Strange, today Johnny Manziel didn't look like the same player that terrorized the Gold Standard of college football, Alabama and Nick Saban. I guess being an electrifying Heisman trophy winning quarterback in college doesn't translate to being a force in the NFL.

 

[KCgator]

He got his ass handed to him today. Awful performance. Too bad a big mouth and bigger ego don't mean squat between the hashes.

He looked exactly the same, but in the NFL they can run him down w/o a problem, and in the NFL he can't just chuck it up off his back foot on a prayer and hope for Mike Evans to bail him out. His game doesn't translate at all to the NFL. Tebow, with him arm limitations, at least understood the importance of not throwing stupid INT's.

 

[oxrageous]

Yup, and Manziel's career is over. I don't expect him to ever set foot on a football field again.

 

[MatthewM.]

Anybody that watches the NFL, like myself, knew he would be a dud.

What's so strange?? You picked a team and/or player and they got the crap kicked out of them. Same old story.

 

[oxrageous]

Well, we all know that rookie quarterbacks almost always light it up in their first starts.

 

[williston_gator]

I had Josh Gordon in fantasy. I think Jonny Suckball got me knocked out of the playoffs.

 

[78]

Jeez, what an awful debut.

 

[TheBigClaw]

The people that are criticizing Manziel for a bad game are being hypocritical as we are doing the same to him that we hated others to do to Tebow
