I can't believe it's come to this but the writing is on the wall for both of these former star QB's...RG3 and Johnny Manziel are about to be Free Agents or Cut/traded in Manziel's case. Which one would you take?

    I think Bob's gonna be heavily motivated by not playing this year and people shoveling dirt on his career already. The talent is still there; he just has to pair with the right offensive mind for his abilities.

    Johnny is a ? -up off the field, but I think he'll do better in a environment outside of Cleveland. The Browns are the most unstable organization in football so a lot of people would have trouble succeeding there.

    Yep, he went to high school about 30 minutes from my house. That ? BEEN a beast. After Matt Ryan continues to disappoint the rest of his contract out, Blank's best bet is to fill the seats with a black qb from Georgia.

    Yes....Falcons play the NFC & AFC west, along with Green Bay and Philly. I'm being optimistic for a 7-9 season. And yea....i'm not impressed with this QB class.

    Osweiler boutta be a free agent. I liked what I saw when I watched him ... he's tall, athletic and got a rocket arm. Can take a hit in the pocket.

    I'm not saying he's gon be elite but he's got all the tools.

    Os ain't goin nowhere. Manning on the way out, and they had to let him get his last shot before the send him off on some Kobe ? . Os is Denver's future.

    People always say that but no QB we drafted has left here and been successful matter fact nobody that has struggled here has left and been successful

    I think once Mettenberger gets a good settled situation He will be a good stop gap QB. Maybe even a starter game manager.

    Brian Hoyer needs to except his calling as a another great back up. He only has two good games in him a year.

    Carson Wentz, Paxton Lynch and Jacoby Brissett are three QBs in the draft to pay attention too.

    Look for a free agent QB that will make a roster and surprise..............................Brandon Allen and Chad Kelly.

    RG3's shown he CAN be a NFL starter. Johnny hasn't. Granted he's never REALLY had the chance since we all know ? Hates Cleveland™ but still. Robert was a beast in his rookie year. I swore dude was gonna have 5,000+ career passing yards against the Eagles.

    On the other hand, RG3 has serious injury issues that Manziel doesn't. I mean at this point he should scare you more than Bradford because Bradford doesn't want to run. RG3 was on his suicidal Vick ? with some of those runs.

    .........I mean come on, b. If you don't have an instinct to protect your body while playing quarterback, its only a matter of time before your team dies in a fire with Hoyer or Weeden behind center.

    I don't think he's going to make it unless he turns into strictly a pocket QB.

    That hit on RG3 was the catalyst for his ACL tear, his pops coming in to convince the coaches to turn him into a pure passer, his regression, and his fall from grace. Even caused Kirk to come in and lead a comeback victory that very game, and eventually create the QB controversy that led to Kirks promotion and Bobs upcoming release.

    He shoulda slid way before Ngata got to him. That ? play ruined everything.

    It did but it was going to happen eventually anyway. He was getting his ass kicked every other game. He's too small to be running around like that. His pops is right. He needs learn how to be a pure pocket passer or he's going to end up like Vick(play all 16 games once or twice his entire career). Entertaining but underwhelming results overall.
