ESPN article on Johnny Football...

David Fleming is a dumbass.

 

But to be fair, the mention of him being the "greatest athlete" is far from sincere, and the opening of the article includes this statement...

 

So let's be clear: Manziel didn't earn this job. Cleveland just ran out of options. Either way, and regardless of whether he or the NFL is ready, on Sunday the long-awaited Johnny Football era begins.

Vick wasn't a great athlete. He was fast as poo. That's it. He was tiny and made of glass. Vick was just a slightly faster version of RG3.

Cam Newton & John Elway are the best athletes I've ever seen play QB.

Tom Brady is probably the worst athlete to ever start at quarterback. That should tell you how much value I put into being "athletic".

Manziel runs like a 4.68 40, isn't one of those cannon-armed QBs, and isn't particularly big.  HOW in the fug would he be considered the best athlete at QB ever?  Lmao

 

Going by his specs, he's the worst "athletic" QB in the league.  Just as pure athletes... Cam, Luck, Wilson, RG3, Kap, etc. all blow him out the water.

so is johnny football the next andrew luck to take attention away from cam?

don't answer that.

people need to just quit bitching about people not mentioning cam in discussions like this.

 

Definitely.

 

What I also find funny about that comparison is just how utterly divergent Luck and Manziel are as quarterbacks.  They have pretty much nothing in common.

    • So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
    • Maybe Rod changing his philosophy a little so that stars dont turn into JAGs.
    • I feel like the last 2 years were the best chances to win the Cup under Rod. Especially 2 years ago. Im afraid this year is the start of the decline. You cant last forever with his philosophy which doesnt change and most stars you get by the trade deadline end up being just another guy.  It sucks because he is a master motivator. All he needs to do is make small tweaks like change his coaching staff and actually address the issues this team has had year after year in the playoffs. Not just personnel wise, but strategic wise.
