been 8 years and Johnny Manziel is still one of the very few GOATs of his generation in college football. as a fan, I couldn’t believe how his career turned out. but watching this makes me appreciate his greatness in that time period
People who weren't around 2012 college football and what this kid was doing just can't understand how unbelievable the Manziel era really was. The guy was a living highlight reel, I know his pro career didn't go well and some of it did fall on him but you have to admit he was placed in perhaps the worst situation he could've been in. A coach that clearly didn't want him, he never went more than 2 straight weeks practicing with the 1st team, a team that went from week 3 to week 14 with only 1 rushing TD(and that 1 was by a Qb), out of 16 games in 2015 Cleveland had rushing TDs in only 4 games, they said he was too small but everyone of his receivers were shorter than he was. His last season in Cleveland he started 33% of their games yet was responsible for 66% of their wins(he also broke the franchise QB rushing record in his last game).... and after Cleveland cut Manziel they went 1-31 over the next 2 seasons. Yeah, Manziel shot himself in the foot on several occasions but he never really had a chance with that historically horrendous Cleveland team. Damn shame b/c he was a lot of fun to watch.
Manziel had a mythical effect on the game. The charisma. The sheer talent. The big plays. Nobody has ever captured imaginations like that in football. Ever.
Well said bro. I lived foe watching him ball in College and bought my Browns new era cap as soon as they drafted him. Sad ending but he's getting himself back together
+ronnie simmons Yep. I'm an A&M fan and I thought he was alright after the Browns picked that CB in the 1st round. But then Philly was up and I was like "no way Chip doesn't take him"... Philly trade to Cleveland. Say no more, everyone knew what was up.
What seeing someone take off running everyplay? His only skill was evading and when he couldn't run anymore hed throw the ball up n his receivers bailed him out....i actually felt bad for his receivers
The 2 highest yardage seasons is SEC history. Most dominant college player I've ever seen. It's impossible to describe how insane it was watching him play. Too bad he can't get his head straight.
RD He always had to run around and make plays, he couldn’t throw it to the open receiver and he had to extend the play by running in circles in the backfield to just throw a jumpball
Triisstaann you gotta give credit it when it’s due my man. He may not be Nfl material, but dude would straight ball out every single game. Run circles around em and ran through em when he had too, Seen some pretty accurate deep balls too.
Dude the only skill he had was evading the def rush...he couldn't stand in the pocket and deliver, wouldn't let the play develop and didnt trust his linemen so within 1 second he always took off running and threw the ball up and his receivers bailed him out so many times...i actually felt bad for his receivers
If there was 3 feet of open space, and this man had the football, passing or not, it was a touchdown. Just the way that he played this game and how much passion he had will truly never leave the special place it has in my heart.
His RS Freshman season was the most exciting college football I’ve ever witnessed. Even the Atomic Dawg defense can’t hold a candle to Johnny Football.
What I find amazing is that he was clocked at 4.68 in the 40! Which isn't incredibly fast. (It's good for a QB), but much slower than the average Defensive Back. Yet they couldn't touch him! He had incredible start/stop quickness, great vision, ..and could cut on a dime!
I'm going to call BS on that 40 time. I'm not saying he wasn't clocked at 4.68. I'm saying he's obviously much, much faster than that. There was maybe one or two players on the whole team who were faster than him, and it wasn't the DB's. I think he could run a 4.68 carrying a 50 lb feed sack in street cloths right now.
Most exciting college football player I've ever seen. He could run, fake you out with his quick steps, shake and bake you, deliver in the pocket, outrun the defense in a sprint up the middle or around the corner, or buy the time necessary for receivers to get wide open by his running around. There has never been a super athletic quarterback who could run and throw like Johnny football. So fun to watch. Can you imagine if he played on Bama's team. They would've won the National Championship 4 years in a row (had he remained in college that long). Best college player we've had in my opinion.
if he just stopped messing up in the real world he'd be set. as a qb he has all the abilities needed to be elite. just some coaching help and he'd be there
Yeah he could have been the greatest of all time with the speed matched up with the accuracy Tom Brady can't make and extend plays like or Aaron Rodgers Peyton manning he had the potential to be the best of all time and he blew it away
his game was not translatable to the NFL. To make it work when every player on the field is a pro it requires studying, restraint and playing within the system. He wasn't willing to do that and IDK that he would've been good playing that way. He was an all time collage QB, was never going to be a good NFL QB. Mahommes is the best example we have of a guy who walks that line perfect. he has all the magic backyard ability, but puts the work in and understands how to play within the system first and create when it breaks down.
How could you not love watching him play? He was amazing! But it just goes to show that amazing, God-given gifts only go so far. Discipline, honor, integrity, commitment, perseverance--Manziel has growing up to do. Don't we all, but still, what talent....
Man if that’s the case,he would be playing right now SMDH🙄🤦🏻♂️😏. He ain’t old bro, he’s only 30. I get it, he’s a College Station legend and definitely was electrifying to watch during his D1 days but don’t give us that crap like he would be good enough to play in this era when he ain’t even old like that yet.He got figured out bro hence why he ain’t playing football on Sundays anymore and that’s the reality of it
lol he DID play in today's league. It hasn't been that long dude. His style of play still doesn't fit in the NFL. you can't pull that stuff off running from guys like Bosa and Parsons and you can't throw those balls up against NFL DB's lol. Not to mention the guy never wanted to play real football that requires work and studying.
Manziel was easily one of the best and most entertaining college QBs I’ve ever seen. It’s a shame how his NFL career turned out but 2012-2013 Aggies were must watch TV because of Johnny Football.
fake still is, just not at the NFL level most likely. He could still be a beast under the cowboys o-line, you don't know if he's been finding time to work on football skills
People can talk all the shit they want about Johnny Football but there’s a case to be made for him being in the top 10 college QBs of all time. He was the leading rusher in the SEC when he won the Heisman.
After watching the doco and being new to following nfl with fantasy and the craze, I really hope he finds peace within himself. He’s such a legend already and for Texas and football. I feel like he has plenty more life around football when he’s ready whether that’s mentoring at college level or commentating and talking about football.
In my opinion. There has never been an more talented Quarterback in all of football. Michael Vick is close in terms of shiftiness and skill, but Manziel was so smart and aware. And had so much heart.
Lmao nah bro he had a ton of flaws in his game and tbh that’s part of the reason why he didn’t succeed in the nfl apart from off the field issues of course
I disagree look at Tony Romo highlights. You'll see a lot of similarities. Don't forget this is with a terrible team where quarterbacks period come to die. the guy was dead as soon as he got to the nfl.
Auburn fan here. People say talk about a band's music, not their politics. With that being said- Johnny was truly amazing to watch. There wasn't anything like him out there. Still isn't. That's why no one else has earned that nickname of "Football". Too much fun to watch him, the highlights, and I wish there was more highlights out there to watch, but alas.
Johnny Manziel one of the best to ever play in college football and one of the biggest what ifs in NFL history. Really wish we could have seen him take the NFL seriously.
He's a top tier, rank one, among the most entertaining to watch, elusive, evasive, versatile, and amazing quarterback at high school, and both college and NFL level. It's very sad, however, the way that someone can fall hard by doings of money, fame, and power. Pray for that poor kid, he's not living a happy life, even with all that money, fame, and once merits.
Redirect Alljunk you said he's an amazing qb at the nfl level, if this was true then an nfl team would sign him and force him to break his partying habits. he is simply not good at the nfl level, in the nfl is where everyone is a star, in college everyone is mediocre. he got destroyed in the nfl
Without a doubt. One of the biggest busts in my mind simply b/c of the huge potential he had. Sling the ball accurately 60 yards on the run, not many QB's can do that.
What a shame. I mean, I'm not an A&M fan nor do I ever watch college football... but just watching these highlights it's perfectly clear why Cleveland signed him and why he won the Heisman... and it's tragic that he couldn't bring this magic to the NFL for even one or two seasons. In college it was like he was a man playing against boys... but the Pros are a different story. He was a boy playing against men--at least mentally and emotionally. But, hey, I hope he's happy doing whatever he's doing now... that he chose over a killer, multi-billion dollar NFL career. :)
The Browns had a horrible O-Line and a controversial Offensive coach during Manziel's years. The truth behind this madness is detailed in the new 4 part Netflix series "ESPN: What the Brown is happening here?!"
I'm not a Browns fan but he will eventually become an elite qb its just that its hard to do good with a team like the Browns. I think he'll get traded then he'll actually start progressing as a qb
+Cam Newton Well being drafted like the browns is like a death sentence, Branden Weeden was drafted there but he could have a chance now that he's a free agent
I'd say he has a 50/50 shot of being great or anther bum. He has the ability, but he is his own worst enemy. He needs to be disciplined, because he sure as hell wasn't at Texas A&M. I saw him a few times getting drunk at bars DURING FOOTBALL SEASON. Had he taken football serious in college and not gotten by off natural ability he'd be an overall better player and person.
Most Exciting player to ever watch in college football - Tore up the SEC, Whipped Alabama in Tuscaloosa & destroyed OU in bowl game. Fearless & would risk his life running into Linebackers for TD or 1st down. God Bless Johnny Football.
+itsNate no that's not what I mean, yea he has to grow up but I mean damn man here in cleveland he will never have a fair shake at things. he's always liked 2nd compared to the other qbs and it bullshit. so if I were him honestly I'd request a damn trade... I think he'd be great with a team like the redskins. or even a backup in Dallas while Romo plays. AT LEAST the young man can learn how to be a damn quarterback there. cuz in cleveland if you don't know how already well it sucks for you.... alot of people are upset about him being benched.. and it's 100% bullshit to put him 3rd string qb. the browns are tanking the season anyways haden is just not playing because he don't want to. bowe just plays when he feels like it. somehow Crowell changed from last year he apperently has no sense of how to run the damn ball. it shows ALOT when they start wanting to trade away your best players like joe Thomas and joe haden.. if you don't want to win then don't win but leave cleveland a Haslam needs to realize this and take kosar up on his offer to run the damn browns.. let kosar do it. give him a shot I mean he is a hometown great let him coach or be gm. and bring in Peyton Manning for the other either coach or gm. and I would LOVE to see Favre as our qbs coach... just do it Haslam !! you got the money now use it !
+Joe Hickman Agree, it would be interesting to see what he could do with a better team. I don't know what the Browns rank for offensive line, I spent 20 minutes scouring the Internet and couldn't find anything for team rankings by specialties. I would imagine not so good. He needs some go to receivers that can make big plays. Let's face it, he's good at dodging and impromptu maneuvering. If he had an offense that could work with his skills, like when he played for Texas A&M he could be very formidable.
Such a legend. So much fun to watch in the college, only team I felt ever had a chance to beat Alabama was Manziel and that Aggie squad. Dude was just electric. I always feel bad for #1 picks who are QBs, it’s a curse for a QB to go to such a underwhelming team and expect them to succeed
95% of QB highlight films are great pass/yards after catch . This guy was a crazy runner, made some of the best nothing to something plays ever. Its sad he never was able to translate his collage style in the NFL , CFL ,AAf……..I wish him well.
correct just like all the black qbs...they just do not make it in the nfl...call me racist all you like(youre right) but ignoring the facts do not change the facts
Tkmkim 09 yeah nah bruh. That bs. You can believe that. I watch that kid every Saturday. It wasn’t just Evans or Kliff. Believe what you will. He made Bad decisions? Lol yeah okay. I’ll tell you who makes shitty decision. Kellen Mond. That kid sucks. It wasn’t the drinking and partying that effected his NFL career? It was what effected it and his hard headness to not grow up is what tanked him. You’re fucking blind lmao. I’ll tell you who’s going to be a bust Lawrence from Clemson.
Wish we had 4 years of college highlights. He’s probably still be in the NFL if he stayed in school all 4 years. Needed to mature. He was unreal to watch. No one like him ever.
I'm a Auburn fan but I could never lie I loved watching this guy one of the best players I've ever seen I mean he runs circles around all them with ezz

Without a doubt. One of the biggest busts in my mind simply b/c of the huge potential he had. Sling the ball accurately 60 yards on the run, not many QB's can do that.
20 years of Aggie football and this was our only good period that I remember.
The best QB scrambler ever......
paul ayika bull mike vick ever ring a bell
paul ayika Fran Tarkenton?
Lamar Jackson?
What a shame. I mean, I'm not an A&M fan nor do I ever watch college football... but just watching these highlights it's perfectly clear why Cleveland signed him and why he won the Heisman... and it's tragic that he couldn't bring this magic to the NFL for even one or two seasons. In college it was like he was a man playing against boys... but the Pros are a different story. He was a boy playing against men--at least mentally and emotionally. But, hey, I hope he's happy doing whatever he's doing now... that he chose over a killer, multi-billion dollar NFL career. :)
should've shown the one where he trucked a lb for a TD, unreal
He did
4:44
4:46
Almost 5 years later and money manziel might just be over, long live Johnny Football
had the skills, not the attitude. dude couldve been great
The Browns had a horrible O-Line and a controversial Offensive coach during Manziel's years. The truth behind this madness is detailed in the new 4 part Netflix series "ESPN: What the Brown is happening here?!"
Greatest college qb of all time
i mean just look at the way he runs 😩
just the way he looks with the sleeve, you already know where its at 😩
He’s back
I'm not a Browns fan but he will eventually become an elite qb its just that its hard to do good with a team like the Browns. I think he'll get traded then he'll actually start progressing as a qb
+Cam Newton Deuce! Johnny is a bum!
MaddenNFLhighlighter yeah I thought he'd be good one day but after his whole "Billy" thing he did I realized he's the next Ryan Leaf. Lol
Yup
+Cam Newton Well being drafted like the browns is like a death sentence, Branden Weeden was drafted there but he could have a chance now that he's a free agent
I'd say he has a 50/50 shot of being great or anther bum. He has the ability, but he is his own worst enemy. He needs to be disciplined, because he sure as hell wasn't at Texas A&M. I saw him a few times getting drunk at bars DURING FOOTBALL SEASON. Had he taken football serious in college and not gotten by off natural ability he'd be an overall better player and person.
I AM STILL GETTING HYPED OFF THIS! 😂
3:28 - fuckin chills man. i wish he would have went on to be the greatest of all time
I wish he had a brain too but sadly he does not also too bad cause I will become the greatest of all time watch.
@@djienehhrhrh48 you had me till you said youd be the greatest of all time.
@@djienehhrhrh48 Doubt you will make the nfl tbh
@@djienehhrhrh48 morning really
Most Exciting player to ever watch in college football - Tore up the SEC, Whipped Alabama in Tuscaloosa & destroyed OU in bowl game. Fearless & would risk his life running into Linebackers for TD or 1st down. God Bless Johnny Football.
He plays like a combination of Deion Sanders & Steph Curry. He is just gifted with extreme athletic talent
Too bad he's a cocky bastard
Curry is a basketball player lmao
Say what you want but this man is a legend and one of the best college qbs I’ve ever seen
now if the browns could just let Johnny be Johnny !!!
+Joe Hickman A frat boy with no sense of personal responsibility or loyalty? No.
+itsNate no that's not what I mean, yea he has to grow up but I mean damn man here in cleveland he will never have a fair shake at things. he's always liked 2nd compared to the other qbs and it bullshit. so if I were him honestly I'd request a damn trade... I think he'd be great with a team like the redskins. or even a backup in Dallas while Romo plays. AT LEAST the young man can learn how to be a damn quarterback there. cuz in cleveland if you don't know how already well it sucks for you.... alot of people are upset about him being benched.. and it's 100% bullshit to put him 3rd string qb. the browns are tanking the season anyways haden is just not playing because he don't want to. bowe just plays when he feels like it. somehow Crowell changed from last year he apperently has no sense of how to run the damn ball. it shows ALOT when they start wanting to trade away your best players like joe Thomas and joe haden.. if you don't want to win then don't win but leave cleveland a Haslam needs to realize this and take kosar up on his offer to run the damn browns.. let kosar do it. give him a shot I mean he is a hometown great let him coach or be gm. and bring in Peyton Manning for the other either coach or gm. and I would LOVE to see Favre as our qbs coach... just do it Haslam !! you got the money now use it !
+Joe Hickman Agree, it would be interesting to see what he could do with a better team. I don't know what the Browns rank for offensive line, I spent 20 minutes scouring the Internet and couldn't find anything for team rankings by specialties. I would imagine not so good. He needs some go to receivers that can make big plays. Let's face it, he's good at dodging and impromptu maneuvering. If he had an offense that could work with his skills, like when he played for Texas A&M he could be very formidable.
+James Osborne dallas has all those things
TheLoneGamerGuy I'd like to see Manziel in Dallas.
Im from Philly. Life long Penn State fan. Manziel is my fav college football player of all time
so sad
Right .such a great athlete and player for the game. Sad to see his talent go down the drain.
Such a legend. So much fun to watch in the college, only team I felt ever had a chance to beat Alabama was Manziel and that Aggie squad. Dude was just electric. I always feel bad for #1 picks who are QBs, it’s a curse for a QB to go to such a underwhelming team and expect them to succeed
95% of QB highlight films are great pass/yards after catch . This guy was a crazy runner, made some of the best nothing to something plays ever. Its sad he never was able to translate his collage style in the NFL , CFL ,AAf……..I wish him well.
Manziel was my fav player in college dude made it look so easy!
great college QB, just not built for the NFL.
mholdr no, the NFL just wasn’t built for him
correct just like all the black qbs...they just do not make it in the nfl...call me racist all you like(youre right) but ignoring the facts do not change the facts
James VanGurp Warren moon, Steve McNair, Michael Vick, Donavan Mcnabb, Randall Cunningham, Deshaun Watson have all found success in the nfl.
Rogelio Mora and how many have failed?
Rogelio Mora all B RATE quarterbacks at best. They don’t have the intelligence to lead a team.
Who’s here after the club shay shay interview?
waste of talent.. DONT DO DRUGS KIDS
Josh Pickney wasn’t really drugs. Maybe some but It was mostly alcohol, people he surrounded himself with.
Tkmkim 09 yeah nah bruh. That bs. You can believe that. I watch that kid every Saturday. It wasn’t just Evans or Kliff. Believe what you will. He made Bad decisions? Lol yeah okay. I’ll tell you who makes shitty decision. Kellen Mond. That kid sucks. It wasn’t the drinking and partying that effected his NFL career? It was what effected it and his hard headness to not grow up is what tanked him. You’re fucking blind lmao. I’ll tell you who’s going to be a bust Lawrence from Clemson.
What a journey with Texas A&M 🙌
If only he never discovered beer
Daniel Vincent morrell don’t think beer was the problem you dumbass
Wish we had 4 years of college highlights. He’s probably still be in the NFL if he stayed in school all 4 years. Needed to mature. He was unreal to watch. No one like him ever.
at 5:23 that is a pick in the NFL
Yeah he got pretty lucky there not gonna lie..
I really love it is. Really.
Not if you have big 6'5 Mike Evans to toss it to
+Jeremy Mendoza Mike Evans is awesome
Jeremy Mendoza that's prob the reason he is considered a bad about in the NFL cuz he doesn't have a mike Evans or even a good receiver on the browns
Bro was so fun to watch. And he low key revolutionized the accessory drip
Mike Evan was the reason for Johnny success
Yea that's why johnny had rushing yards like a running back right?
dumb asf comment. i don't even care if youre trolling like thats just a trash comment
Evans certainly made Johnny look good on some throws, but Johnny was a great college player no doubt.
No
I'm a Auburn fan but I could never lie I loved watching this guy one of the best players I've ever seen I mean he runs circles around all them with ezz
