Is Manziel a Real Talent or Just a System QB?

After what A&M did tonight with that true Sophomore QB who has never played before in Kenny Hill, how do we see Manziel now?

Was Manziel great or was it Sumlin? Obviously, Manziel is a great athlete who made a lot of plays with his feet and arm. But, overall, is he able to carry that forward into the NFL?

I'm leaning towards more of a system QB

A lot of the pocket passing success he had honestly had a lot to do with Sumlin's offense. But his improvisation skills when the original play broke down were things that couldn't be taught.

Not sure how well his skills will translate to the NFL, but I think he would have been a successful college QB playing anywhere.

I think Kenny Hill is pretty good and USCe's defense sucks.

Yeah. Scrambling around and making insane plays is definitely the result of the 'system'. Seriously? Wtf?

Seriously?

You did not anticipate this reaction while watching the game? (If you watched)

If anything, he didn't play within the system.
