His decline reminded me about the fall of Art Schlichter.

Two once great quarterbacks who hit bottom.

Dude was a flash in the pan, and never had the consistency or attitude to be anything else.

You're a little late, but my favorite part was where he cried about wanting to go to Texas his whole life and ending up in College Station.

This doc sux. It never got into the stuff people wanted to hear. Vomiting in pregame from hangover, Kingsbury following him around on Fri night, How much and what sort of drugs were being used and did he ever play under the influence, just how much did the coaches know about his issues and what did they say.
This just talks about his playing career mainly.

I didn’t know he played Miss State hung over lol

Btw it was after his Heisman year he said it went to his head. Kingsbury was already gone to Tech. We hired an egg of an OC in Jake Spavital. Jake has managed to find his way back to Cal as their OC currently.

I thought the documentary was entertaining and informative.

It's hard to believe how much Manziel achieved at A&M for being such a total screw up. It's also hard to believe the Brown's drafted him when it should have taken them 15 minutes of research on his background in order to make an informed decision.

Win 10 games at A&M and all of a sudden you’re a national media rock star. It’s just crazy to think how famous he really was. He would have made absurd NIL money had signing autographs been legal.

Dude is an absolute train wreck. Notice they never even touched his equally awful stints in the CFL & AAF, either.

Just lazy and didnt care. They glossed over almost all of his pro career which I think was more interesting.

A one sentence mention of the Manning Passing Academy. Didnt go nearly deep enough into the shite he pulled in Cleveland.

He is a POS druggie who beat up a woman. The end.

No need to make him out to be some kind of victim.

That agent... he earned his money for sure. I'm not sure if I should be impressed or disgusted that he was able to honestly sell a bill of goods to an NFL team that should have known better. Mr. Agent Man was a hard worker but sleazy as hell for covering up all of the blemishes. But, that's what an agent does.

Teams should have been wary when both Texas' NFL teams passed on him. Including Jerry Jones ...

Peyton is an NFL legend and a hell of an ambassador for our program. Cope harder losers. Former Tennessee football players rep the hardest out of any collegiate athletes out there.

Thread about Johnny. It’s not about Manning or Burrow. Why are you guys even bring up other QBs? It makes Tennessee look insecure
