Week 15: Bengals (8-4) @ Browns (7-6) | 1:00 p.m. | FOX

I think the coaching staff is well aware Manziel is playing terrible, what should they do?

Down 23, keep running?

Keep running.

 

[Soar]

Pretty obvious the game plan was going to be heavy run with some play action. But falling behind early killed that approach.

Part of the reason Manziel is struggling a ton.

 

[brownindian]

The biggest take away from today's game is that when you need to draft a player, don't listen to homeless men and go with the researchers !!

 

[Huber.]

There's only one man happy today..

I have always had the opinion that they're both terrible. I wish I wasn't always right.

 

[godfather]

I just want this game to end, so I can watch some of the Packers and Bills game.

 

[Chris]

It's like Manziel hasn't prepared or been coached up like, at all.

Frustrating as hell.

 

[JSS2306]

Hoyer would at least get into the redzone and shit the bed.

Manziel hasn't even approached the redzone... Crazy.

 

[brownindian]

when was the last time we were shut out?

He really does look like he hasn't changed at all since college.

 

[brownindian]

bengals player injuring another bengal player is the highlight of the game .... lol

This is probably the best thing that could happen for Johnny today. Get your ass kicked, realize that you have to put in the time like Hoyer did. Be a pro. Lose out, get that 7-9 draft pick, practice all offseason.

The best thing that could happen? Then it goes cut him next February, rinse wash repeat.

You do realize I am referring to the early portion of the game where they were calling read-option out of the pistol as opposed to handing the ball off to a RB in a traditional formation and using stretch plays to take advantage of the zone blocking scheme, thus allowing Manziel to, perhaps, throw the ball utilizing playaction... yes?

They didn't do it one single time in the first two drives and they've been buried ever since. Manziel has played like dogshit. It's his own doing. But there is no excuse to run this fucking offense in a pistol formation in week 15 when they haven't done it all year. On top of that, going 5-wide and having Manziel run the ball up the middle on the first drive was the most predictable call I have seen since Shurmur was in charge.

 

[Mr. Orange]

Cut him next February, rinse wash repeat.

If Dallas wants to give a 1st for him, I would hope we would entertain it.

 

[Ohio]

This is so sad.
