Re: NFL Off Topic

Because we all can't get enough of the Browns.

Via ESPN Las Vegas
"Our sources tell us Manziel was at a popular night club on the strip Saturday night. The QB entered wearing a blonde wig, a fake mustache, glasses, and a hoodie.

Manziel introduced himself as “Billy.” He was there into the 3am hour and when it came time to pay the bill, he asked to have it comped because he didn’t bring cash and also didn’t want to put it on his card.

However, the sources tell us he ended up paying with his card and signing the check.

By 3am he appeared to be enjoying the party scene that Vegas is known to offer.

The club had Manziel and his crew placed at a VIP table close to the DJ booth. The table is located in one of the darkest areas of the club.

Manziel dined at the club’s restaurant before going to the nightclub. He was seated at the most private area in the restaurant, which is still out in the open. And yes, he ate with his wig and glasses on."

The only thing I am interested in about this story is Johnny's disguise.

Please internet gods, let a picture of johnny incognito surface.

I hope that's true.

Manziel isn't fooling anyone. He's basically saying "screw it". I'd be surprised if he's in the NFL 2 years from now.

Well outside of missing his meeting with the Dr. He's slowly getting smarter. Checkin with alias, attempt to leave no paper trail....

Long way to go but when his 28 and 290 lbs from being run out of the league he'll be able to hide his face and money from the IRS for the years of tax evasion.

Wonder if he had a talk with Chris Carter? I believe this would have been chapter 2 of Chris's guide for NFL rookies.

Had no idea there was an ESPN Las Vegas.

Re: NFL Off Topic

My opinion and other coaching staffs opinions are the WR's the Packers have are currently slow, except for Janis and he can't get on the field, yet.

Yeah, I still think part of the issue is Jordy, who could go deep and score a lot the last few years. Some teams would double him up and last year that left Adams or Cobb, and especially Cobb open over the middle.

Arians said after the game that the current crew of WR's is slow including Richard Rodgers and press coverage can beat them. That's the way teams have been playing the WR's since being 6-0.

7 to 8 in the box is daring the Packers to pass and run the ball and they aren't doing a thing.

And yes, Rodgers is partly to blame along with the banged up OL. The last 3 seasons, they had the same starting OL, so, that starts with injuries and the backups they have this year.

The blame can be spread out to the above areas.

Someone brought up our defense in the Carolina game. Well, if you have an offense going 3 and out most of the time, you don't give your D much rest, either.

oops-carry on, didn't know we are on the Manziel trail. He is getting clever.

Johnny Manziel is the man.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Bunch routes, motion, and stacking are ways to help WRs get open, deal with press, and press man. That's off the top of my head, man. How often has your offense utilized those?

And that goes back to McCarthy, probably being stubborn in the play calling department or not just plain adjusting at all.

I think the first 15 of 17 plays of yesterdays game were all runs by Lacy and Starks and setting up the run in a wishbone formation. We haven't seen that hardly all year. McCarthy was telling everyone he didn't trust the passing game and we will try to jam it down your throat.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I would think the Rams owner has the best shot. I know the NFL wants block it because they want publicly funded stadiums, but they can't really do that without opening themselves up to lawsuit, unless they block the Raiders & Chargers, too.

NFL doesn't have much say at this point unless they try and influence the vote. At this point it's up to the owners vote.

Ehh not really. Is he one of the richest owners league, probably. But all these of owners can finance their own stadiums but they don't want to.

That's not really true, you're confusing rich with financing which are two completely separate issues.

Regardless of how rich one man is it's hard to get financing from a bank that isn't a certain win. There's a reason why teams constantly lobby to get tax payer dollars for new stadiums.

Yeah here's a good article explaining some of the issues earlier this year http://www.si.com/nfl/2015/11/10/all...-mike-mccarthy

I've been a McCarthy defender but this has gone on for several weeks. Rodgers is not playing well but he's doing him any favors either. Sigh. I don't understand it.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Maybe even two teams.

Which owner has the privately financed stadium plan?

I think it's the Rams owner.

The Chargers/Raiders Carson plan is privately-funded as well.

The most logical outcome is a Rams/Chargers compromise with Spanos becoming a tenant in Kroenke's stadium: the NFL gets their football megalopolis, two teams, and brings Spanos on board. And the NFL will have no problem giving the Raiders the cold shoulder. They can always use San Antonio as leverage or move into the 49ers' stadium.
