Johnny Manziel Joining CFL, Closing Book On Patriots’ Interest For Now

Probably the smartest move he's ever made. Manziel would never succeed in New England since he doesn't understand basics like studying film, game planning, reading defenses, etc. His sandlot style stands a better chance in Canada.

... he doesn't understand basics like studying film, game planning, reading defenses, etc....

You just described 90% of Jete QB's for the past 50 years.

Our long regional nightmare is over.

Tim Tebow and Colin Kaepernick were both out of football for extended periods of time, for different reasons, and each talked of how much they loved and missed the game. Both had opportunities to go to Canada—each was on the negotiation list of the Montreal Alouettes. Both declined. Plenty of other ex-NFL quarterbacks have walked away from the game, rather than try and pump life into the careers by working on their games in the relative anonymity of pro football’s de facto Triple-A league.

Just came in here for the first time after hearing the CFL news. Did not read the thread. Do the 16 pages focus on JF actually getting acquired by BB? As in seriously?

I’m not a fan but I’ll guve him props for realizing that is the way to regain interest from NFL teams, and further his career. Kaepernick and others would be wise to follow his lead. Tebow was to arrogant to take that step.

So.....

Kaepernick?

Signing Kaepernick would likely help the league, and marginally help the patriots and Kraft.

I didn't know Jordan Richards was moonlighting in Canada. 35 on the defense looked just like him.

Hard to judge much about him from this. He’s been with Montreal for only a few days and his team absolutely reeks. I think the 0-16 Browns would beat them by 80.

Tonight should have surprised nobody.

I hope better for Manziel.
Hes no Danny Etling jk

 

[Delicate Genius]

He made some poor decisions tonight but he also has zero help. I feel bad for him. He's on the worst team the CFL has seen in years, built by a GM who has no business being in a management position.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

I’ll pass

"Johnny Football" did not play to the hype.. 11/20, 104 yards and 4 int.

He is playing on a crappy team, but he played crappy as well.

Looks like that GM fell asleep during Offensive Line 101 class.

First game he's played in few years and no continuity with his receivers. Hopefully it gets better for him.
