Quote:Also wouldn't the fact that Manziel had a bad defense actually help his numbers? He gets more possessions and he has to throw the ball all the time to catch up.

Wouldn't having a good defense (like TB had) also mean you are getting the ball back a lot as well....

Louisville ran 71.4 offensive plays per game and Texas A&M ran 73.8..... So this talk about Johnny get way more chances is bogus, he is more efficient at scoring points.
