I wouldn't be surprised if some Americans come up to watch Johnny.  I hope he does well also......but imagine if he stinks it up in Montreal and gets replaced by Adams? The former Heisman and NFL big wig couldn't crack the worst team in the league.... yikes. Lets hope he does well
July 23, 20186 yr comment_343993 This is a pure 90s-era Ottawa Rough Riders move, tho at least the Rough Riders didn't have to trade their entire future to get Andre Ware.
July 23, 20186 yr comment_344014 Vince had real problems with his reads, and never figured out where the S was......not mobile and threw a ton of picks
July 23, 20186 yr comment_344022 I've read several things about Manziel.... all of them said he had the athletic ability to play qb, including in the NFL. Â
July 23, 20186 yr Author comment_344051 Manziel failed the NFL the first go around because he attempted too many deep chucks into triple coverage areas. He takes high risk throws, and refuses usually to take sacks, and has a bit of a run around backyard football style of playing the game. Tried too many bad throws in Cleveland and as a result saw his time cut short. Having said that, the Als need a scrambling risk taking QB to try and get things done for them. Willy takes too many sacks and Matthews doesn't have a very good arm. Manziel should at least be able to escape pressure and throw on the run for them. Now whether he hits his target when he throws the ball ... Well that's where the adventure will be.

July 23, 20186 yr comment_344071 First Manziel interview in Montreal. seems like a completely different person. he's been hitting the weights. https://en.montrealalouettes.com/live/2018/07/23/johnny-manziel-is-here/ Edited July 23, 20186 yr by Mark F

July 23, 20186 yr comment_344109 1st rate organization in Montreal, letting players find out they've been traded through social media. Â
July 23, 20186 yr comment_344110 I wonder if Hamilton would be interested in trading our rights for Darian Durant for $75 000 .....  just a thought!Â

July 24, 20186 yr comment_344118 Just watched the Johhny Manziel interview. I am having trouble reconciling the articulate, respectful guy I saw in the interview with the entitled, hard partying, domestic abuser that I've read about in the past. Curious to see how this plays out.

Curious to see how this plays out. People grow up. He probably thought he was invincible. But being out of the NFL in a hurry humbled him up. I think he’ll do some good things in Montreal. Only downside is going to a complete tire fire organization.Â

Just gonna be a thing when you have multiple people involved and social media. doesnt make it less stinky though.  Â
July 24, 20186 yr comment_344149 I think Williams went to the ticats in order to cut speedy B. I think his tantrum last week sealed his fate. I feel bad for Westerman though- IIRC he took the same cash from the Als that we offered him to close out his career playing with his bro and in front of his family...Â

Teamed with Chris Williams & the Cats now have 2 speed burners for Massoli to throw to.Â

But , your idea isnt far fetched. That wasnt Banks first tantrum.
