Johnny Football must really want to be a Cowboy

Cleveland Browns coach Mike Pettine says he will have a conversation with Johnny Manziel after another social media video of the quarterback surfaced Sunday night. The video, which appeared on Busted Coverage, shows Manziel singing along to "March Madness" by Future in a private residence. A Tampa Bay Buccaneers jersey of Mike Evans, Manziel's Texas A&M teammate, hangs on the wall.



Can anybody be so clueless as JF or is he just trying to get out of Cleveland so he can have papa Jerry snatch him up?

Video seems pretty lightweight - nothing to it really - but at this stage, any "party" type video would seem to be a bad idea for Manziel to be recording/posting.

Everybody and their dog knows Jerry would jump on signing Manziel if he was released or offered a trade for a low pick. Johnny sure seems to be intent on trying to make this happen. Either that, or he really doesn't have a clue. Or both, lol.

I think it's just that he really doesn't have a clue. I would like to think our staff can stop him from the partying. I just don't have faith in that considering all of his friends in Texas and his knowledge of the local night life. I think he is pretty much a lost cause.

If it weren't for his baggage he really would be a perfect backup for us.

After watching him play I see his arm strength is much better than I thought it would be at this level.


He buys time and makes plays outside of the scheme which is the top priority for any QB playing for Jason Garrett as well.


I don't feel like he is a future starter for us but i'd love to have him as a backup.

 

[SDCowboy]

As I said about RG3, if Manziel is brought it, it would really test my fandom. No thank you.

 

[phildadon86]

I'd also like to add as a recovering addict myself that it takes a lot to stay away from certain things, and I don't make nearly as much money as these people. It's hard enough on a normal salary. Factor in millions of dollars, it will not end well unless JF actually commits to it. Which it doesn't seem like he's willing to do.

 

[Bigdog]

Don't want him. Rather draft a qb and I would ask the potential qbs after they get drafted what are they going to do. I would like an answer that Peyton man Manning gave the Colts and not what Ryan Leaf gave.

 

[AzorAhai]

The guy will bring a circus with him anywhere he goes. His talent does not justify the baggage he brings. Even though this issue is not really that big of a deal, the fact that it is an issue should make Cowboys fans want nothing to do with him. The scrutiny he would be under here would get Hardy like coverage, but unlike Hardy, he has a long history that should keep us away by itself.

 

[Dhragon]

I would like to think that he's is just playing the Browns to get the heck out of there and come here, but yeah - much more likely he is just a person who can't control himself and he'd continue to do the same things here ( or even escalate things as all his party pals are here as well.

Either way, we'll probably get to find out. Can't imagine Cleveland continuing to be patient with him. I feel he will be our backup QB next year, like it or not.

 

[CF74]

I'm gonna say he's going the Gregory route to end up a Cowboy...

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Don't want him to be a Dallas Cowboy.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Heeerrrreeessss Johnny.

Meh, I saw the video but not sure what the fuss is. Him and one other guy during the day trying to rap. Stupid, but can't say he was "partying". He and the other guy had drinks in their hand, but they looked like energy drinks, can't be sure.

 

[HappyOnions]

But people are okay with Greg Hardy being here...

Those energy drinks are high alcohol content energy drinks. I think like 12 percent

 

[landroverking]

Jerry needs a new drinking buddy.

 

[BAT]

What would Cleveland give us to take him, is the better question and perspective IMO. We will even let them throw in Josh Gordon if Cleveland offers us a first day pick.

OK, thanks, that's new fangled kid stuff old farts like myself don't understand.

Not really
