The aren't leaving in the dust.At least not according to coach Mike Pettine, who took exception on Tuesday to a report from ESPN Cleveland's Tony Gro si, who stated that the are, from the second-year pa ser."It doesn't thrill me," Pettine said, per NFL Media's Aditi Kinkhabwala. "I don't pay much attention to what's going on outside of the building, but when it potentially can drive a spike between the staff and the team, I have i sues with it. To me, to talk Jim Marshall Jersey about how a team's potentially moved on from a player, or he's not in plans, that's just irresponsible."Gro si wrote Friday that Manziel was a "fish Kenny Willekes Jersey out of water" in a conservative attack that plans to prioritize the run while asking veteran to safely manage games.Gro si watched Manziel practice last week and wrote that the former first-rounder was "unchanged from his rookie year." A source told Gro si that Manziel was "worse" the second day of OTAs.Pettine on Tuesday dismi sed concerns over the offense moving away from Manziel's improvisational gifts, saying that new play-caller John DeFilippo "will tailor a game plan" Michael Pierce Jersey to match what his quarterback does best."I'm the last guy -- the last guy -- that's going to from him," DeFilippo said in May, per The News-Herald. "Johnny's game is just a little unorthodox. He likes to escape the pocket. He does a lot of impromptu stuff. The thing Johnny is doing right now is he is improving his game of being an NFL quarterback. He's making great strides in doing that."At the time, DeFilippo cited Manziel's top challenge as calling out appropriate pa s protections at the line, another reminder that Cleveland is still working to mold the former Texas A&M star into a functional pro.It's worth noting that DeFilippo was with the when Oakland rewrote the playbook to make the most of 's athleticism, to unleash the mobile pa ser for 576 yards rushing in 2013.Pryor has since Patrick Jones II Jersey struggled to resemble an NFL quarterback. Manziel is under pre sure to carve out a better fate, but until he can master basic elements under center, Johnny is little threat to see meaningful playing time."We all feel good about where (Manziel) is," Pettine said. "You Alan Page Jersey could see, he shows some frustration out there because he wants it to be perfect, he wants it to be done right, he wants to do it the way that we're coaching him to do it. He's probably been the hardest guy on himself."The latest Podcast including 's contract situation, 's injury and Chip Kelly's response to . Find more content on .
