WFNY Roundtable: Browns Thanksgiving Awards

Some videos while you Black Friday: While We’re Waiting…
November 27, 2015Several members of the Cleveland Browns had inferred that there was more to Johnny Manziel’s demotion than what was reported by TMZ earlier this week, and according to FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer, they were right.
According to Glazer, it was Manziel’s actions following the weekend that were more impactful than what transpired on the video.
Manziel was the subject of a video that surfaced following the bye week, but attempted to cover up the story by saying that it was a dated recording. Unfortunately for Manziel, the song playing in the background was just released a few months ago and all of the phone calls made and text messages that were sent were all for naught as the house of cards quickly crumbled at the feet of No. 2.
After being named starter for the remainder of the season, Manziel was demoted on Wednesday after Browns head coach Mike Pettine named Josh McCown the starter for Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens. As to whether or not Manziel will get another chance in Cleveland or not, Glazer adds: “It’s up to Johnny.”

All those Manziel supporters are pretty quiet now, I see…
i’ve been pretty vocal and critical of Pettine’s handling of the situation. This, to me, epitomizes just how out of hand the sports media has become. I feel I owe an apology to the Browns staff for doubting them based on sensational media reporting. If what we are now reading is true, demoting Manziel is absolutely the proper move, and I don’t think they have handled nearly as bad as I once did. Mea Culpa.
I’ve been pretty vocal and critical of the Browns for even drafting Manziel. This to me epitomizes just how much of a spoiled teenager Manziel still acts.
But all that said, you shouldn’t apologize for wanting your team to be good. That’s really all anyone who defended Manziel tooth and nail ever wanted.
I’m just hopeful this then becomes the final nail in the coffin and allows the team/city to move on.
Romo is hurt again.
Farmer better strike while the iron is hot.
Cowboys are done, though, so not sure if it really matters. If they still had a shot to make the playoffs I could see a hail-mary move by Jerry, but not so sure now, since Romo will be back healthy next season.
It’s still Jerrah.
Make the call.
