You do realize that pretty much every single great QB in the NFL past and current not named Peyton Manning sat for awhile after being drafted right?IggyPride00;1654220 wrote:LOL at all you who think that Browns fans will be patient with Manziel having to learn next year after sitting all year when their lord and savior Brian Hoyer is run out of town after winning 8 games (which will feel like a SB in this town).
That is how they fucked this up. This "sit and learn thing" is bullshit as nothing replicates bullets flying. There will be a strong learning curve whether he sits a year or a game, and will make the same mistakes next year as he makes this year.
Only then it will be "we should have kept Hoyer" bullshit dogging him while he works through his early mistakes and it will ruin this town as it usually does.
I question whether some of you have lived in this town or been real Browns fans for more than a minute based on some of the responses I see.
This is literally Couch/Holcomb, Anderson/Quinn all over and we will be looking for a 3rd option within the next 2 years based on how poorly Pettine/Farmer have handled this.
Anyone whose time horizon extends beyond just this season can see how what is happening right now is inevitably going to lead to disaster.
Brady, Brees, Rodgers, etc all sat as rookies or longer.
Reality doesn't back up your opinion, but why should that surprise us?
