Floyd Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Als should just cut Adams now... Sherman blah blahing about how Manziel will get time to work through growing pains and issues - meanwhile Vernon Adams gets one game - ridiculous.

Any head coach in any sport making a statement like that sounds like the kiss of death. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzsax Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Montreal didn't trade the farm to bring Manziel in so he could sit on the bench. Their plan was to rush him onto the field in 1 to 3 games tops. They know they don't have a choice. Hail mary, full of grace... rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKAChip Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Football is a business and the Als at this point know they are screwed so the least they can do it play Manziel and sell tickets. They owe Adams nothing. He was brought in because they needed a QB and only played because Manziel needed a week to learn the playbook. I personally think both he and Manziel suck but to say that Adams deserves more of a chance is ridiculous. He sucked last week and has basically sucked his whole career.

17to85 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Some people have this unfounded love of Adam's. No idea how it started or why it persists but once you remember that it's easier to just ignore those types of posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Not gonna lie. Manziel is giving the CFL tremendous coverage in the US. Football fans down there who'd never give the CFL a second thought will be tuning into Friday's game. We can ***** that TSN is over the top on Manziel but the reality is that he's a ratings draw. Sorry Vernon, go have a seat at the end of the bench, shut your mouth & know your role. You're not the first football player who got the shaft. Won't be the last. I can see a huge ticket rush in Montreal for this game. Expect 18,000 to show up. Bigblue204 and rebusrankin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really surprised that you would post this... letting a player start just because of his prestige as opposed to talent/preparation... usually you're pretty old school Pacman Jones would have upped the CFL hype in the states too... too bad that never worked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Old School but they really have no one else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 SpeedFlex27 is right, Manziel is a draw and is giving and will continue to give the CFL media attention. Look at US sites such as nfl.com and espn.com have articles about his starting Friday. SpeedFlex27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Zaius Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Muricans will definitely tune in to watch Manziel. Hopefully the CFL realizes this and doesn't put Rod Black on the air and tells the refs to keep the flags in their pocket for a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
