Ok I misunderstood what you meant by mental toughness. I thought you meant on the field which is obviously false.



I did mean on the field. Why the hell would you say that Manziel is not mentally tough on the field? The guy is a rock. He never gets rattled. He never quits. He talks shite, but so what? Lots of players talk shite. That's no indication of a lack of mental toughness. Mentally weak players quit, and start fighting with their teammates, and get scared at the critical moment. Manziel is the opposite of that, in every regard.

He got into a fight with a GA at practice after throwing an INT.

He always pouts coming to the sidelines and seems to be blaming others.

Idk maybe I'm wrong but it always seems like he doesn't take responsibility for his play like other QB's do.

Agreed. I think the kid is a self-centered douche, but there isn't an ounce of quit in him.
