Hoyer is having a good season and at worst will make him self a nice check next season but that browns OL is pretty them good any RB they put back there is getting way over 4 yards per and they are doing it all without there best WR and there top TE is kinda injured,
I, like most on here am riding the Hoyer wave. He is carrying on where he ended last year (talent wise, not on a stretcher) and there seems no way he can be dropped.
However, Cleveland wasted, I mean used a first rounder on Manziel. When do you think they will start him? Or if they don't think he is a capable starter, do you think they will move on to another QB next year and chalk up the first rounder as 'one of those things'?
If Hoyer keeps playing well the Browns would be stupid not to resign him, I can see him getting a two year deal similar to Josh McCown and then they still have Manziel waiting in the wings in case something goes horribly wrong and learning how to throw. If he doesn't improve trade him for whatever you can get. So not for awhile is the answer I guess
If Hoyer keeps playing the way that he has been, it will be a little bit of time before Manziel takes over since there's no outside pressure from the fanbase to insert him.
Manziel highlight reels in college were cool to watch, but I saw in preseason that he is a huge bust. Defenses too fast for his act and contender defenses will completely neutralize everything about him, like Tebow was completely neutralized by New England in the 2011 play off game.
Manziel didn't do much against 2's and 3's. Imagine what he would look like against Seattle, New England, etc? He's wildly inaccurate on the run and receivers wide open and standing still need to leap for his passes.
He'd be getting sacked for huge yardage, throwing picks, and throwing passes guys don't want to catch.
