Karlos Dansby: Manziel Can Lead Browns to Super Bowl
Joe Haden hasn’t given up on Johnny Manziel.
The Browns cornerback told Around the NFL on Wednesday that Cleveland’s first-round passer can still emerge as the long-term solution under center.
“I feel like he could be. He could be,” Haden said. “Rookie seasons, they go however, but I think Johnny really understands what he needs to do to be successful.”
Manziel’s rookie campaign ended in infamy. After seven suspect quarters on the field, the former Texas A&M star was late for treatment on his tweaked hamstring, prompting Browns officials to hunt him down at home.

Security reportedly found Manziel in rough shape, with one source telling ESPN.com that the signal-caller was “drunk off his a–.”
Haden, though, isn’t the only Browns veteran who believes Johnny Football can turn it around, with linebacker Karlos Dansby telling NFL Network’s Super Bowl Live that Manziel can lead Cleveland to the promised land.
“Oh without a doubt,” Dansby said. “It’s gonna take a lot of sacrifices. Guys can’t have egos, you gotta check ’em at the door. We gotta … rally around each other and continue to fight for each other, just play lights-out football, and that’s what we’re gonna (have to do to get there).”
