I know that it's common for commentators to refer to any QB who scrambles as a "backyard style" player but to me Manziel's frantic, limb-flailing, criss crossing loop-de-loop scrambles with the ball held out wide are basically the epitome of that style. Aided by the fact that he wasn't the biggest dude so the ball almost looks a little oversized, like a kid using a ball sized for adults. Glad he seems to have gotten his life together at this point
This must have been tough to narrow down to 12! I would have picked some others before these, there were so many great plays by Johnny and his team through the whole season. It was a great year for football!
I'm British, and Quarterback for the London Blitz in the UK. I will follow in Johnny Footballs footsteps. Respect all Heisman trophy winners, my name will be called Heisman Trophy winner one day. The first British Quarterback to be drafted into the NFL, that's my dream goal. And I have had Scholarship offers from Oklahoma, South Carolina, USC, Florida & UCLA. I'm half way there.
This video should be renamed to Johnny Manziel runs in circle and gets touched by defensive linemen, jumps into his own players, runs in circles, then he throws it to a wide open receiver.
***** No Russel Wilson plays on the team that won the super bowl. They weren't known as the best offense of all time they were known for their defense. Do you watch football or just read post game stats?
Ever see Ben Roethlisberger play? He does the same thing but instead of juking he's breaking defender tackles. It's not like they're trying to miss him lol
Are you so ignorant that you are going to claim that Russel Wilson only "played" in the super bowl? The point is he is a successful quarterback in the NFL. If you try to claim he isn't then you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Not to mention Wilson completed 18 of 25 passes for 206 yards and two touchdown and rushed 3 times for 26 yards in the SB. Not bad for someone only "playing" on a team.
My favorite is that perfect pass to Swope between to Alabama's defenders. I think that will go down to that, but he had so great throws & runs it is every debatable.
Atleast I can spell and why did it take his EX GIRLFRIEND a year to come out and say that? Because he became famouse from the heisman and who won hiesman? No one from what ever bull shit team you go for.
We did not see much running from Kap in the SB. It taught me something though, just stick with the big blue wrecking crew. Giants 2014!!!! On the running though you got to be able to pass as well, this kid can do that but the fact he has so much hype behind him and the fact he likes to run a lot makes him a big target when he gets to the NFL. I can see him going places but at the same time I can see him taking some big hits on his way there.
I hope I hear somebody on ESPN say "And for their first pick in the draft the Cleveland Browns pick Johnny Manziel. This kid has passion and we need a quarterback like that. I don't know why people dislike him so much. The way they act you would think he got caught sodomizing Freshmen and throwing them off a second story balcony afterwards. Relax people.
I think he has all the makings of an franchise QB in the NFL. He can run and make all of the throws. Once he learns how to read through all of his progressions in the pocket he will be a beast.
Updated! Top 12 Plays of 2022: 12. Falls down the stairs after getting high at a party. 11. Gets arrested at a party in Vegas. 10. Threatens his girlfriend at a party - she calls the cops. ...... Well, you get the idea..... But he was indeed probably the most electrifying player college football has ever seen (and it's youngest Heisman winner - Freshman!), so I'm a fan of his on the field, but not OFF the field, performance.
Johnnys not a bust until they actually give him at least 8 complete games to show what he has......this kid has a lot of potential, n if they actually let him play he could do big things.....or he could turn up like another Tebow....but one way or another, they need to give him the time and chance to actually prove himself.
Harry Martinolich Please dont compare the sec to the pros. Everone in the pros was an college superstar. The pros is the ultimate level of skills. He didnt play nobody yet we will see if he a bust or not in the pros. I dont see him as a good player yet I hope he proves me wrong. But I dont see him living up to the name. Or making a pro bowl
Bpaul C Manziel put up 907 yards and 7 TD's in his 2 games vs Alabama. Alabama's defense has had 10 guys picked in the top 150 over the past 2 years, with almost all of them being prospects. And if you're going to say Manziel only did well because of weaker defenses, remember the fact that Texas A&M is also a college team, so the offense surrounding him is no where near the level it will be in the pros.
+Spooderman Mahoney lol I hate the SEC, but Manziel constantly best the best defenses in college football. This guy was saying he won't be able to play against a pro defense, but he'll also have a pro offense with him. Goes both ways.
mcal2012 When did he ever say he won't be able to play against a pro defense. Why when anyone ridicules Johnny Jesus Manziel all of these people walk on like "YOU CAN'T SAY THAT ABOUT MY HOLY MANZIEL" this person didn't say anything bad about Manziel learn to read dumb ass.
JFB shatters all SEC NCAA records, 1st freshman to ever win heisman...Imagine if he played for Alabama, LSU or Oregon he would have set NCAA records for the next 300 years!!
3:20, he had so much time with no pressure and yet couldn't pick out a pass and had to rely on breaking a poor tackle to get away with it. Pull that in the NFL and he's gonna end up on the floor.
Are you sure about question #1? He might turn out just like RG3. They both have similar mentalities and both can run and pass when they were in college not just run like some QBs that were good in college.
lol... what are 20 year old college kids suppose to do... Not go to parties.. or get kicked out of parties... Not go on vacation over summer break... Not get arrested... Not get in fights... Just because he won the Heisman, doesn't change the fact that he's a 20 year old kid who's gonna have fun!! Who should have fun!!

Facts
No doubt
Who else absolutely loves watching this video ?

Love the music in this video. Probably the songs Johnny partied too after the games
Damn I remember watching this in 7th grade. Thought he was so good

are your games online anywhere? i'd like to see what ya got.
USC is the way to go, brother.
keep pushing Bro
keep thinking like that and you will get there, dedication and hard work will pay off.
I'm a MSU BULLDAWG FAN ALLDAY but this boy is a beast!!! He's truly amazing to watch!
On number 4 it literally looks like he threw a nerf football with the tail on the end... perfect
Best video of Manziel ever.
i would like to see jonny come back and play for the broncos

basedgarrett I said he plays on the team that won the super bowl. WTF is your problem. Manziel is not Wilson.
basedgarrett And yes he did only play in the super bowl. That is what they do they play football games.
In the Texas a and m vs duke game yesterday (chick-file bowl), h proved he was a worthy nfl qb
Kevin Wendeu yeaaaaaa
Can't wait for this season. Go Aggies!
Johnny is SICK!
you spelled that wrong.... it's spelled suck
Dude, frikkin' awesome video. Thank you so much.
Ok, I am Speechless !
Dude had tremendous speed, it’s a shame he didn’t make it in the pros.
one of the best videos Ive seen
True dat, my brother. He's adapting to the SEC. And this year, he's had some teams to play against. Losing was healthy for him.
My favorite is that perfect pass to Swope between to Alabama's defenders. I think that will go down to that, but he had so great throws & runs it is every debatable.
Say what you will about him, he is exciting to watch live.
Johnny Manziel is insanely awesome.
Let me know when you have the top 12 from 2013.
hows bama doin?
Atleast I can spell and why did it take his EX GIRLFRIEND a year to come out and say that? Because he became famouse from the heisman and who won hiesman? No one from what ever bull shit team you go for.
The hole chickfila bowl BITCH
BMarks387"famouse" Wow you sure can spell.
Hypocrite.
With the 5th pick overall the raiders select:johnny football! !!!!!
I use to love to watch Johnny Manziel run around defenders.It use to look so funny but yet so exciting
Simply put, this kid is living the dream.
Not anymore….
Dude was insane!!!
dudes a stud i dont even watch college football but his career was something else.
The Bama upset never gets old.
I really like his playing style. He's amazing at football...though he's not as good at being a good sport about it. He has low class, but he's good.
Just imagine how many game balls this guys has props to u Johnny
Husker fan here but I love Jhonny Football. A real shame we couldn't see a Mainzel vs Martinez Matchup. :(
We did not see much running from Kap in the SB. It taught me something though, just stick with the big blue wrecking crew. Giants 2014!!!! On the running though you got to be able to pass as well, this kid can do that but the fact he has so much hype behind him and the fact he likes to run a lot makes him a big target when he gets to the NFL.

Unranked Baylor beating No. 1 Kansas State by far larger upset. But AnM over Bama was cool too. Trust as a Kstate fan no one saw that loss coming.
I think he has all the makings of an franchise QB in the NFL. He can run and make all of the throws. Once he learns how to read through all of his progressions in the pocket he will be a beast.
Want to revisit this prediction?
This did not age well
As much as I dont like the aggies becuase im a texas longhorns fan I will admit johnny is a hell of a qb hopefully he will still do good in the nfl
Johnny football is good he needs a wide receiver line men and a good coach
Huston Hodge vlogs m
Huston Hodge vlogs so does every other player
Too bad Johnny's gone :(
Yeah we would've beat Alabama last week
IKR
We would probably be champs
sumlin is a great coach and a very nice and patient man. ace has nothing to do with it. He handles johnny perfectly
No matter what you say he's an awesome football player and there is no denying it. If you don't like him then don't watch he's top 12 plays
Umm excuse me, but what was going on at 8:10
he was looking up and flipping the ball
It is called a touchdown
John Wayne In the background dumbass
xxKoldshadoWxx I
welcome to Cleveland johnny
This aged well
Good job, Brick
Any highlights with asap rocky gets my vote
Manziel is *SUPER* fucking quick lol.
Cat like agility.
This guy is unreal!
Love him or hate him the dude can play football
Anytime you put ASAP Rocky in you highlite video,,,you got my vote!!!
Updated!
Top 12 Plays of 2022:
12. Falls down the stairs after getting high at a party.
11. Gets arrested at a party in Vegas.
10. Threatens his girlfriend at a party - she calls the cops.
......
Well, you get the idea.....
But he was indeed probably the most electrifying player college football has ever seen (and it's youngest Heisman winner - Freshman!), so I'm a fan of his on the field, but not OFF the field, performance.
he's not getting away with this running around in the NFL. he will get crushed
You guessed it lol
Ryan Swope is really good at catching
Johnnys not a bust until they actually give him at least 8 complete games to show what he has......this kid has a lot of potential, n if they actually let him play he could do big things.....or he could turn up like another Tebow....but one way or another, they need to give him the time and chance to actually prove himself.
Ryan S lol
Huston Hodge Vlogs you are right
This guys alright but can't wait to see him in the NFL
Harry Martinolich

mcal2012 He didn't say anything you are accusing of dumb ass. He said your holy God the SEC isn't comparable to the pros.

Interesting song to play, Swimming Pools by Kendrick- A song about Alcohol addiction.
The pass to Swope against Ole Miss was in 2013.
As an Aggie fan, it's sad to see him as such a bad person nowadays
+Enrico Palazzo He won the heisman. His talent was why people care. A nickname is a nick name.
The media made Johnny Football and ended up ruining Johnny Manziel.
Blake n
He’s not a bad person. He has a substance abuse issue. That’s a disease just like diabetes…in any case he’s 1 of the best to ever do it in C Stat!
You sound like a longhorn... you weak
+Will Ford Right, he did play for the cards, my bad
Manziel is too good.
2012 was all Texas a&m I think they could’ve won the national title
Wats the first and last song on this video? And the one with the play against Mizzou?
4:58 Can someone tell me what song this instrumental is from?
GA. Luigi Kendrick Lamar - Swimming Pools
Swimming pools Kendrick Lamar
Swimming pools
Oh My...gracious
Ryan Swope you are a beast #25!
Does anybody know the name of the songs used as background music in this video?
He's good in college but sadly when he gets to the NFL, his running days will be behind him.
This aged VERY well
I wish i could run like Johnny money manziel
Reminds me of Joe Flacco running around the pocket like that.
3:20, he had so much time with no pressure and yet couldn't pick out a pass and had to rely on breaking a poor tackle to get away with it. Pull that in the NFL and he's gonna end up on the floor.
I'm an Aggie and i've had all hope in Romo. But hell i hope Dallas gets Manziel or Bridgewater.
whats the song on the play "heisman pose" vs Alabama?
Go Johnny football
Hey Ags tv, Mississippi state is located in Starkville. Not "starksville."
Nice plays
What is the song for heisman pose
At 2:36 did Anyone else notice the 12 johnny and that other guy made ...the 12 man is the reference
drake torno thats so cool ive never noticed that!
How come you are so good?
what is the song in the beginning?
Are you sure about question #1? He might turn out just like RG3. They both have similar mentalities and both can run and pass when they were in college not just run like some QBs that were good in college.
Great video, except they spelled *Starkville wrong
Johnny u r awesome
Daunte Culpepper's qb rating in 2004 ranks him as one of the top ten qbs of all time. So that's not entirely true
So much potential, yet such a disappointing career; hopefully he can still somewhat redeem himself and make a comeback someday.
Johnny Football is now better known as Johnny Cleveland.
That guy is the truth
whats the song at the beginning of the heisman pose
Kid makes quick decisions. These are not all designed runs, has wits about him. Tell me that smu pass wasn't dope!
He is fast,but as a QB you can't always relie on the run game
whats the song at the beginning and ending of this vid?
NFL???...he's not ready kids!
He is a stud
Johnny Manziel is to good
Johnny FOOTBALL
I'm just curious does anybody know if scouts criticize his throwing motion? It doesn't look that bad but it looks a little strange.
Can Texas a&m win a championship with this guy?
I hope he plays like this for the browns!
lol... what are 20 year old college kids suppose to do... Not go to parties.. or get kicked out of parties... Not go on vacation over summer break... Not get arrested... Not get in fights... Just because he won the Heisman, doesn't change the fact that he's a 20 year old kid who's gonna have fun!! Who should have fun!!
