As a result, his grasp on the system is not up to speed yet. However, we're being told that it is improving every day. Well duh, just about anything improves with additional reps, but Johnny needs to take the potential starting role seriously if he wants to be the guy. In my opinion, he hasn't done this yet. Why should the Browns put everything they've got into the kid when he isn't willing to reciprocate? Trust me, I think it's obvious that Johnny has the physical tools to be successful in the NFL and carry the Browns to a lot of victories, I'm just not certain yet that he has the mental capacity to do so.
Why should Johnny put his everything into a competition that was clearly rigged against him? He knows the entire coaching staff is fellating Hoyer right now, as does the national media who is starting to call the Browns on it thank God.
I know personally I would have a hard time getting motivated to give my all when the team's owner tells me to get used to holding a clip board, and then they rig the competition in a way that ensure I have no legit chance to win the job because they plan on starting whoever starts game 3 of the pre-season (which will be Hoyer).
Remove your heads from the sand people, the writing has been on the wall the entire off-season about the organization's zest to commit long term to Hoyer. Johnny is barely and afterthought at this point.
