This Johnny Manziel can be the savior Browns need
Duke Johnson had a nice day in a complementary role, running for 78 yards on 13 carries. Crowell led the way with his first 100-yard-plus rushing game of the season, finishing with 145 and a pair of touchdown runs.

Johnny Manziel actually did that against the 49ers on Sunday, when he tried to run away from trouble from his own 7 by running straight into the end zone, where he was swallowed by SF defensive lineman Quinton Dial. Trouble was for the 49ers, Dial grazed Manziel’s facemask on the play, so the Browns got a first down instead of giving up a safety.
Manziel, who was banished to the bench two weeks ago for lying to the team about partying, threw for 270 yards on 21-of-31 passing for one touchdown and one interception. Manziel looked unbridled and relieved and continued the upward trend he’s been on, as far as playing quarterback.
“Maybe we did take them a little light”, said Niners linebacker Ahmad Brooks. The 49ers are very bad, which certainly played a part in the way the Browns played, but they did play well. “So he should have had six games to show his stuff, but he was a twit during his bye week and now will have four games to give the Browns-and the rest of the league-a good window into his pro game”.
“They see him in game, in the huddle, his presence and what he’s been able to do”.
Despite the 49ers’ desire to keep the inexperienced Hayne on their practice squad, the team might not have a choice but to promote him to their 53-man squad for the remaining three games of their season.
Somewhat lost in the rush to praise Manziel is the role that head coach Mike Pettine, offensive coordinator John DeFilippo, quarterbacks coach Kevin O’Connell and quarterback Josh McCown have played in Manziel’s development.
Ellington’s run ended with the 49ers slotting over a field goal, however Hayne still holds the record for the longest punt return at San Francisco for the season – 37 yards. Terrelle Pryor was on the active roster for the Browns and listed as a wide receiver…. Hartline had eight catches for 107 yards before getting hurt.
“We’re just a team fighting throughout the season, (and we can’t) let this happen next week”. “I feel bad about that throughout the last months of my life, really thinking back and seeing how much of my life outside of this field and outside of this locker room is documented”.
If Chryst can’t figure out a way for the 49ers offense to score more than one touchdown in garbage time against an opponent that had been allowing nearly 30 points per game, it raises serious questions about whether he should continue in his job. They sacked Blaine Gabbert 9 times.
-LB Nate Orchard had 18.5 sacks at the University of Utah last season.

Even some Browns fans applauded Dawson’s boot that brought the 49ers within 10-3. That means Martin, who started the team’s first 13 games at center, essentially will be auditioning for the role of left guard next year.
