Why are you arguing this?
Because that one specific play was luck.

Manziel' success shouldn't be any skin off your nose; yet you seem hellbent to stick to your guns. Just curious about the rationale.
It's not about him as a whole, just the one play. I've said it several times he's played very well this year.

He's lucky.
Nothing more.
Onward.

Mike Evans accounts for almost 40% of JFF's production through the air. Who is the real hero.

Could have been picked. Again, using hindsight doesn't make it a smart play.

Whether you like him or not you gotta admit he is great not just lucky.
Again, it is about that one particular play.

I don't think you know what hindsight means if that's how you're trying to use it.

So you admit the play included both skill and luck?
The scramble yes, (but even that could be construed as pretty lucky, not many quarterbacks get away from that), that throw was all luck. There wasn't a modicum of skill in that throw.

Gotcha.
Again, just curious about the impassioned stick-to-it-ness on your part.

Literally no one said that.

So, uh, you have no idea what hindsight is, do you?

It's not an either/or, mutually exclusive scenario.
Both are freakish athletes.

quote:Look, here is my point. I absolutely hate people that talk about luck in sports. This play reminds me of the David Tyree catch in the super bowl. Was luck involved? Hell yeh. But so was an extreme amount of skill. Eli had to avoid a sure sack and Tyree had to out jump an Nfl safety. JFF used his skills in order to allow himself the opportunity to get lucky
Because that one specific play was luck.

That play really pisses you off, doesn't it?
Now you know how defensive coordinators usually feel against A&M

Tough shite. Luck is a factor in just about everything.

And once again, no one talks about that play if the lucky as hell catch doesn't happen.

Oh please, since the Bama game which was Evans' coming out party, Johnny has had to spray the rock all over the field.
A fricking walk on senior (Travis Labhart) has been having monster, multiple-touchdown outings, for crying out loud
