Browns QB Brian Hoyer looked way better than Johnny Manziel in my opinion
Today there are already reports saying that Johnny Manziel has began to run away with the QB race in Cleveland. Citing a Browns source, ESPN’s Bob Holtzman reported that Manziel has overtaken the sixth-year pro in the battle for the starting job after his promising performance in Saturday night’s 13-12 loss to the Lions. A source told cleveland.com that Manziel has the momentum and that the superior talent.
I am a little confused though, because I thought Brian Hoyer looked way better than Johnny Manziel, and he did it against the Lions first team defense. I do not know what the Browns are trying to do with this report, maybe they are trying to give their rookie quarterback some confidence. That is the only thing I can think of, but I am not sure Manziel is ready.
I like the idea of starting a rookie quarterback and letting him learn, but if he is not better than the starting quarterback then why rush things? I am a little lost with this report.
