I understand the JFF backlash hype that's storming the media, sensationalizing every detail of everything he does, but I wouldn't call him a bust. He threw some low balls, but sometimes QBs do that to protect throws and receivers. They weren't even as bad as Donnie Mac's dirtballs. Nobody helped him out. Those receivers were horrible the whole game for both QBs. His line was letting tons of pressure thru too. Just goes to show the Browns aren't focused on offense.
Now I get you can't flash the finger in the NFL. It's classless and the opposite of what the face of a franchise should be doing... but Johnny is a 22 year old star kid. He's even a star now tho he's a bottom 5 NFL qb. In a league where DJax is throwing up gang signs in a game, Suh stomps on people, and players are getting ejected for throwing punches... JFF throwin up the bird doesn't really bother me. Whatya think the middle F in JFF stands for? He hasn't look good, but he's still learning. If he improves and wins the job, he'll be the next Joe Namath. If he fails and becomes a third string somewhere... he'll be blaine gabbart. The catastrophizing of his career over preseason games his rookie year is pretty naive.
