Johnny Manziel Signs Fan’s $100 Bill
“I know the number is starting to climb, but for me, these mean a lot to me”. “I feel that I am able to go through my reads”.
“I don’t think I have words to do it justice”, an emotional Dawson said afterward. The quarterback’s passes were on the money most of the game, however, throwing a touchdown pass in the third quarter to Tight End Gary Barnidge in the third quarter. His rating for the season is 89.2. That doesn’t happen all the time in the NFL.
“Yeah, it’s much better”, Manziel said. Johnson followed with a 19-yard run. You can’t throw across your body to the center of the field. If he continues to play this way through the final three weeks of the year, the Browns may be forced to give him another look come next season.
Despite the 49ers’ desire to keep the inexperienced Hayne on their practice squad, the team might not have a choice but to promote him to their 53-man squad for the remaining three games of their season. With the Browns heading toward another off-season house-cleaning, Manziel could end up as trade bait, but more performances like he had in Week 14 would make it more hard for the Cleveland GM, whomever it is, to consider that possibility.
“It is going to be a challenge”, Manziel said. Every week, we’re mentally prepared.
“Here’s a guy that shows up to work every day excited”, Pettine said. “We got the win last week and maybe we got a little big headed”. He added a reception for 10 yards as well. “Johnny!” during the second half of the game.
It was the third straight game the Browns have allowed a blocked field goal, but Coons finally got one past the line of scrimmage in the second quarter, making a 26-yarder to put Cleveland ahead 10-0.
“It’s the National Football League: on any given Sunday, anybody can win”.
Then again, after shutting out the Atlanta Falcons on the sack sheet in Gabbert’s debut, Gabbert has been sacked with increased frequency, from two by the Seattle Seahawks and two by the Arizona Cardinals to four by the Chicago Bears to the Browns having their way with him. The team’s previous season best was seven sacks against the Titans, and the defense entered the weekend with just 17 sacks this season. He threw a 6-yard TD pass to Jerome Simpson with 1:42 to play.
He appeared to sign the bill “Money Manziel”, a reference to the nickname he had when he was at Texas A&M. According to the quarterback, he is just getting started in Cleveland.
The 49ers (4-9) out-Browned the Browns.
Hayne’s cause had been helped in recent weeks by the struggles of his replacement, Bruce Ellington, in the return game.
Tough Guy: WR Marlon Moore re-injured his ribs, but returned and finished with two receptions for 23 yards.
