Manziel vs RG3


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

RG3 is said to want to play for the Rams. No word if they want him but they do have need at quarterback.

Manziel reportedly wanted the Cowboys, but Stephen Jones has indicated that's not likely.  Manziel's off field issues are going to make it rough for him.

Speculation has linked 49er coach Chip Kelly to both.  In the case of Manziel, Kelly actually recruited him while at Oregon.  All the 49er speculation is of course dependent on what happens with Colin Kaepernick, whom the 49ers have said they're not trading even though trade discussions are reportedly going on behind the scenes.

So, two questions...

Which one gets a new job first?

Which one has greater potential to be successful in their new job?

Might as well throw squidward into this:

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Colin Kaepernick "wants" to play in Cleveland.
Well, that's a first. Per Schefter, Kaepernick "respects" Browns head coach Hue Jackson. That feeling appears to be mutual as Jackson was high on Kaepernick leading up to the 2011 draft. The Broncos and Jets have been linked to Kaepernick in recent days but according to Ross Tucker of NBCSN, the Browns are "negotiating against themselves." The Broncos could make a late push but for now, the Browns appear to be in the lead for Kaepernick. Stay tuned.

why would anyone ever 'want' to play for the Browns?

To make millions of dollars playing a game that children play.

I mean, I'd take a six figure paycheck to lose games. Unfortunately that seems to be the only culture that team has cultivated over the years. 

And to answer the question: RG3. Injury risk sure, but he's not a dumbass off the field like Billy Vegas.

To be fair though, most of us wouldn't have better options.

What we'd do if we did may not be the same.

Well, if you sign a big contract with lots of guaranteed money, you'll probably be cut next year so there is the potential to top 20 mill for the season and still get out of Cleveland before your career is in the shitter.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
