Forget his personal antics...I beleive the guy is going to be a NFL star, and in fact I think the Texans missed a great opportunity. Reminds me of a modern day Broadway Joe in terms of skill and media attention.

Not sure what you mean when you talk about his talent. Namath was a below average NFL QB, even in his era. He was a celebrity playing on the biggest stage (NYC) whose defense made him look prophetic in the only really big game of his life (in the pros).

No idea if Manziel will ever hit that level of "celebrity" status, especially playing in Ohio, but just getting drunk and acting stupid isn't going to get him anywhere close to Namath's status.

Namath was a great QB playing on 2 very bad knees. Below average can never be used when describing him. That Super Bowl may have been his only one, but that one game changed the NFL forever. And from what I remember about that game is that he played pretty darn good.

Well, everyone was saying that he and Josh Gordon would compliment each other well. :biggrin2:

Still, I think this photo from last week is the number 1 Johnny Football offseason pic so far.

My eyes! Two of the most annoying people together, ugh. Justin and Johnny are made for each other.

Have you ever looked at his career stats?
