Johnny Manziel: Swan Won't Return His Calls

[WellYouNeednt]

FWIW, just about everyone on the radio that's broadcasting from camp has vocally commented about Manziel's arm. It's all been about how he's got a gun.

Everyone said the same thing about Weeden. If he cannot make pre-snap/in-play reads or have touch on his throws - that arm of his is useless.

I was more or less making a general statement about any quarterback. To be truthful, i have not seen any of the rookie camp, OTAs or Training camp footage of him throwing the ball to make a positive or negative comment about him.

Should we start the countdown when Phills/Surge come in here and deletes all of the previous posts? I will give it an hour tops

Talk of alcohol in the Manziel thread seems to be on topic. I'll allow it.

I'm drinking Miller Lite.

Ya'll mad? Fucking mad?

Nah man. We all have to hydrate sometimes.

Pettine said today that Manziel would probably start getting snaps with the 1st team.

And that Manziel is further along than he thought he would be.

Here are some tweets.

If Manziel pulls this off and turns out to be something, man I'll be such a fan.

Something about people who push their life right to the edge in every area and are still able to excel at what they do, and earn the respect of their peers, just gets me amped.

Love dudes like that. Michael Jordan was one.

Before we get too excited, all 2nd string QBs get reps with the 1s. There has been talk of packages going in specifically for Johnny. Essentially assures he'll get reps with the 1. The goal is to keep both QBs engaged and competitive. Nothing is handed to anyone in the NFL. Must be earned.

Weeden must be the exception then.
