How many hard hits has Manziel taken this season?

I've watched 3 or 4 A&M games and I can't remember a single time he's been knocked hard. His elusiveness and awareness in the pocket are just insane. For a little dude who runs the ball a lot and is often sitting in the pocket for what seems like ages, you'd think he would get broken in half a time or two a game. I know his offensive line is one of the better ones in the country, but still, even when he's in the open field he just avoids the hits with ease.
If I were a D coordinator, my #1 priority would be to find a way to get some clean shots on Manziel, whatever it took even if it meant leaving the secondary vulnerable or whatever. Manziel is just WAY too comfortable out there in every aspect of that offense and his confidence is as great as his ability. You have to attack his confidence by laying some hard hits on him b/c there's nothing you can do about his ability.

Had the same thought. He rarely even takes a solid tackle. Can't remember a guy that elusive.

Maybe 10 good hits but they were on his terms. Hasn't been blown up at all.

In a way he reminds me of Flutie. Doug would run all over the field and no one ever seemed to get a clean hit on him.

The only time he got hurt was a freak injury in the mizzou game. He definitely doesn't take a lot of hard hits.

Arkansas had a good hit on him earlier this year. All I can remember. He just bounced off though.

He's taken some but they were his choice ie:dropping his shoulder for an extra yard but he's hard to get a good straight shot on
