    :roflmao:The reported deal is worth an estimated $11.75 an hour with no health benefits BUT an option for dental after 6 months of employment. Johnny has submitted his resume which states he is really good at cleaning up his own vomit with a swiffer and using plastic bags to gather empty beer cans

    If Manziel actually cared about his job and football he might be a good grab as a perennial backup QB in the NFL.

    I doubt any NFL team looks at him after headlines read "Manziel Hits Three Clubs After Court Appearance."

    I think the only team dumb enough to take him now is the Browns... oh wait.

    This is not a very good signing, yeah he has talent but will he be dependable and the bigger question is.............

    How long before he OD's on the cleaning chemicals???????????????? :tequila:

    If that had been true, there would be so many heads exploding, TTF would have to by a new server and rebuild this website. :roflmao::roflmao:

    I expected Manziel to be on a different team as a backup in 3 seasons or less but I didn't think he would be out of the NFL this soon. I thought he would at least be able to squeeze a second chance out of a QB desperate team. Not so sure now.

    This a great signing. We need a qb for the future and Landry has had his shot. I look forward to watching him and Ben compete in camp this year. I don't think Johnny beats him out at camp but I would say by probably week 8 or so Johnny will have taken over the top spot. Ben will still be a solid backup to him though and we've been hoping for a solid backup. This move makes total sense across the board. We get the next franchise qb AND a BACKUP franchise qb. Pretty much no other team can say they have that luxury. Well done Colbert. You have totally redeemed yourself from signing Blake, Cortez, Vick, Rainey, and Archer.

    I read he we signed Ray Rice too. They will be leading sensitivity training for the team. This was organized by Vick before he left!

    i bet he is a better teamate and studies the playbook a lot harder than ben. oh, and i bet he is a better leader than ben also. Next years starter if you ask me.

    When you hire an agent, and he turns around and fires you then it's pretty much over
