Manziel has an above average arm. He can make every throw. You're not talking about a Colt Mccoy or Chad Pennington arm here.



I never said he has a weak arm, I said he doesnt really have a strong arm. How many times have you seen him throw a rope to an intermediate post, a deep back shoulder route or even a seam route? A&M doesnt usually run a full pro route tree offense so it is tough to tell if Manziel can make all the throws because they dont really ask him to. TAMU uses a lot of shallow crossing routes, deep ins, out routes and straight line rail routes.

Manziel's accuracy is incredible. I think you're confusing bad decision with accuracy. He is a gunslingler (i.e. risk taker) to a fault.


ehhh, would you want to bet money on him consistently putting it over the LB and in front of the safety from the pocket with bodies all around him?

He is pretty damn athletic like Kaep and his deep ball is incredibly accurate.


Mike Evans makes him look pretty good too

FTR I am not against JFF, I think there are real position questions about him that have nothing to do with being cocky or 6'1 or friends with drake or whatever other BS we are talking about

Back Shoulder route at 1:26

Deep Out 6:29

Arm looks pretty good here

Deep Post. Accurately ON THE RUN

Post at 8:47

and that's just from two games.

I think JFF makes evans look good too. Evans was a nonfactor against Duke and most of the late season.

I wouldn't put money on anyone not named Brees, Manning, Rodgers, Brady, Rivers, or Luck to do that consistently.
