Manziel is a punk. The Browns had two first round picks last year and totally missed on them both. A total whiff. THAT is how a team remains perpetually bad.

Now, the Browns cheating owner is forced to speak out as if he’s a moral authority.

What a freaking train wreck.

So no longer is Manziel merely behaving badly on his own. Now he’s exporting bad behavior to his teammates and getting them in trouble as well.

Great job, there, Cleveland. Nice waste of a draft pick.

A fine to a football player doesn’t mean crap,they laugh it off all the way to the bank.

I howled with laughter when the Bengals were flashing the Johnny Ego money sign whenever they sent him to the turf a couple of weeks ago. It was even worth a fifteen yard penalty when the refs flagged them for taunting once.

The league should hire Ryan Leaf as a demotivational speaker to wake this guy up.

As a Browns fan, I hate to be proven right when I said Manziel would be a bust.

If I were Johnny Manziel, I would be too embarrassed (about my onfield performance) to show my face in public.

Instead, I'd be on that practice field from dawn to dusk, attempting to salvage my professional football career. Or if I were injured, I'd be hanging out with the coaches and watching tapes. I certainly wouldn't be throwing rowdy parties!

Justin Gilbert and Josh Gordon couldn't be bothered to show up for practice before the last game, and were suspended. Both physically gifted they simply don't take themselves or the team seriously. Gilbert was the 8th player selected in last year's draft, and couldn't beat out a couple of long shot rookies. He has missed meetings, missed sessions in the weight room, generally been just a f*-off.

Gordon, last years reception leader, has been in and out of trouble his whole career including college. Neither one seems to have the grit to cut the mustard in the pro game, and may not be back despite their potential. Potential doesn't win games.

Same with Manziel. He wasted his rookie year by not working hard to prepare. When the call came down a couple weeks back he was flatfooted and disgraced himself against the Bengals. I doubt he has a future in football. He was outplayed yesterday by Connor Shaw the QB from the practice squad.

The Browns have failed the last 15 years because they have had crappy leadership at the top, who have not established a serious culture. You could see it in press conferences, with coaches making light of questions and laughing off misbehavior in the past.

The players pick up on that and end up partying before a game instead of after. Kind of sums it up.

Winning in the NFL is rare for Heisman QBs

Since 1950, 27 quarterbacks have been selected as the Heisman Trophy winner. Of those 27, only 20 started at quarterback in at least one NFL game. Among those 20, only four quarterbacks have a winning record in the NFL (regular season). Robert Griffin III is the only Heisman winner with a career passer rating over 90 in the NFL (90.8). Since 1950, the combined NFL winning percentage for quarterbacks who won the Heisman Trophy is under .500 (480-501-4, .489).
