Watch Cleveland Browns Vs. Cincinnati Bengals Live Online, Streaming Video Of Johnny Manziel’s First Game
Football fans can watch the Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals live online and see a part of history — the first start for Johnny Manziel.
The quarterback known as “Johnny Football” takes the reins for the Browns this week after coach Mike Pettine decided to bench starter Brian Hoyer, who led the team to a 7-6 record but struggled mightily in the past few weeks.
Though Manziel has seen some other limited action this year — including playing most of the fourth quarter against the Buffalo Bills and leading his team on a touchdown drive — this will be his first start. Manziel’s teammates are excited, saying the rookie quarterback looks great in practice.
“You see him being Johnny Football,” said safety Donte Whitner. “You don’t see him trying to duplicate anybody’s quarterbacking style, just sitting in the pocket. If something’s not right, you see him using his instincts and his intangibles, breaking the pocket. That’s where I can see growth.”
Fans who watch the Cleveland Browns vs. Cincinnati Bengals live online will be seeing more than just the debut of Johnny Manziel. The game is also critical to the playoff hopes of both teams. At 7-6, the Browns will likely need to win out and get some help in order to make it to the playoffs. The Bengals lead the AFC North, but with just a half game lead over the Steelers and Ravens will need a win to hold onto their position.
Wide receiver Josh Gordon thinks Manziel has what it takes to bring the team to the playoffs.
“I think he’s got enough,” wide receiver Josh Gordon said. “He’s got what we need right now to move forward and pull off these last three wins. He’s willing to do anything, extend a play, and make something out of nothing. That mindset isn’t in everybody. A lot of guys will quit, take a sack or throw the ball away. That’s not what he does.”
