ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Johnny Manziel era has begun in earnest -- and there might be no turning back. Manziel finally got his chance to play significant NFL snaps when the Cleveland Browns benched Brian Hoyer early in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills.

It’s time for the Browns to find out what they’ve got with Manziel.
Either that or Hoyer has thrown 1 TD and 9 picks in the last few games.
“Giggles” Lewis is no way close to being a genius.
Sounds like he’s playing his “Black Privilege” card for a free attack on a white.
Do the Browns have a QB problem, or an O Line problem, or both?
The Raiders had some decent QBs, they always got fired because the O Line was bad - very bad.
The two are not mutually exclusive.
I see where Bengals coach called him a “midget”
The Browns had one of the top 2 or 3 offensive lines this season until their center went down with a season-ending injury. They are now on their 4th center for the season.
But it's not the OL that heaves desperation passes into double & triple coverage or severely overthrows WRs.
5 turnovers and 2 defensive scores usually means a win, but mistakes were made in all aspects of the game.
There are at least 5 teams ahead of them for the last wild card spot so, yes.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog...
Manziel would be a good fit in Seattle. They play his style of football.
he should go to Tennessee where his favorite liquor, since childhood, comes from
Can’t wait to see how he does, I’m rooting for him.
Since Marv is black, he has a free MSM pass to slander us small white guys.
he's no Todd Marinovich......
No. One of the things that makes the Seahawks successful teamwork, and I just don’t see Manziel as a guy who’s interested in anything but his own agenda. In Pete Carroll’s world you can be as loud and flamboyant as you want, but the team comes first.
No more fun betting on The Hoyer Line ... that that rag will top a 50% completion rate?
If Manziel were better than Hoyer he would have won the starting job in the preseason. Manziel is limited as a quarterback. Not too many short guys make it in the NFL as a quarterback. A Drew Brees or Russell Wilson comes along once in 50 years. Manziel is nothing but a showboat, can do nothing in the pocket and likes to freelance too much, which is going to get him hurt real fast. Too bad the NFL does not have their own version of the Harlem Globetrotters. Manziel would fit right in.
Russell Wilson is a lot quicker and smarter than Manziel. A showboat he’s not.
