This is an oldish video, but I'm sure a few people on these boards have never seen it. 

 

A little background first: a group called "Dude Perfect" go around doing all kinds of sports trick shots. They got together with Manziel at Kyle field one afternoon and the results were dam pretty epic.

Doesn't really mean anything of course, just a fun 'trick video'. Kid can certainly sling a pigskin tho.

 

If nothing else, just check out the shot at 4.15.

I want 3 players. Clowney, Bridgewater, Manziel. Jaguars have the number 3 pick. Just give me one of those 3 at 3, and I'm happy.

The guys who make those videos are hilarious .

I wish they didn't have that stupid music.

What happened to the guy who was referred to as "The Trick Shot QB" ?

---

Teddy couldn't do that.

---

This settles it. Top qb this year and best qb I've ever seen.

---

Lol awesome video

---

all his "long balls" are wobbly i doubt it actually makes it in. The ballon pops were nice as were the skeet shooting

Johnny McEntee is a senior at UConn. He never showed enough on the field to win a staring spot on a team with a dreadful history of QBs.

---

Manziel should just show this video and stand next to it for his Pro Day.  I bet the scouts will be hella impressed.

---

Impressive

---

Maybe its... fake?

Bet Teddy cant do that

"Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot."

YEAH BUT A 6'2 QB could do it betterz

"Expect for the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes."

 

1)  Not exactly a beautiful spiral.

2)  How many "takes" did it take?

3)  Could he do it with Clowney coming after him?

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.

You find these guys hilarious and a picture of Clowney laughing also hilarious.....

 

I'm starting to connect the dots

3) Could he do it with Clowney coming after him?

1) If he's throwing it 60+ yards it probably won't be a perfect spiral


2) We will never know


3) How many QBs can do that without any passrush?

1)  Why not?  A spiral is generated by the release and rotation on the ball; it has nothing to do with the force of the throw.

 

2)  Funny how you never see video of trick shots that missed, isn't it?  

 

3)  Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Manning,  Kapernick,, Wilson, Luck, Rivers, Romo, Cutler, etc,,,,........probably even Gabbert.

1) Over time (distance) a ball will lose its spiral as the rotation slows down. Its simple physics and not debatable.


2) I know right!


3) I doubt Gabbert could do it because some of these throws require deep accuracy. Something he lacked. But if we are to include former Jaguars I bet Leftwich probably could.

1)  The decrease in rate of rotation due to air friction is minimal and will not affect the flight pattern of a well thrown ball.  A nice spiral does not suddenly become wobbly in mid-flight.  Manziel's ball looked like a pigeon with a broken wing as soon as it was released (The spin imparted was not aligned around the long symmetry axis of the football; the more the angle of rotation is out of alignment, the greater the wobble).

 

2)  Sometimes the out-takes are the best part.

 

3)   LOL.  Gabbert lacked so many things how can I be expected to remember them all?  Byron did have a strong arm, too bad he ran like a cow on crutches.
