I tend to doubt he only watched film once in his collegiate career.  No coach would allow that to happen.

 

Still, when I see Manziel, I see a kid who has the talent to be an electric player in the league, but only because of his improvisational skills.  When you put him in a box and force him to work within a system, he's not nearly the player, and eventually, every gimmick player in the NFL has to conform to a more prototypical role, especially at that position.  I don't think he's got the gumption to put the time in to really hone his skills.  The kid likes to have his fun.   That could certainly change as he matures...if he matures.  But, until then, highly suspect.

Doesn't study the game, said to know about 60% of the offense in '12, never watches film; one source said only time he watched film during '12 was before ALUN.
