Quote:This is what I mean when I compare Manziel to Tebow. In your comment, if you replaced Manziel's name with Tebow and took out the part about Bama, you wouldn't know the difference.

 

Manziel didn't "gut" Bama's defense, Mike Evans did. Mike Evans carried Manziel that game and if it wasn't for Evans, A&M would've gotten completely blown out. The game was on the verge of a blowout until Yeldon fumbled at the goal line. And let's not forget Manziel's INT at the 1 yard line on that poorly thrown fade pass.

With all due respect, although Evans had a good game, he accounted for one score. Manziel spread out passes to 10 different receivers that game. Nick Saben himself went to Manziel (not Evans) and thanked him for the near heart attack. I also disagree with the Tebow comparrison. Tim can't pass or go thru his progressions like Johnny can. Everyone talks about Johnny's height. In 2 more months, he'll be 5'6. No one is talking about his foot size. The boy has like size 15 feet. Unusually big for someone his size. That may be the reason, he can stop and change direction on a dime. Also, with the fade pass, the rookie never competed for the ball. Bad decision to go to the rookie in that situation. That was a momentum changer. Anyway, in my humble opinion, he will be the 2nd quarterback off the board. And deservedly so.
