Naming no names, there are a handful of players that recognize they have one shot at fame/glory, endorsement, Opera life story, book deal, etc... And that one shot is more dependent on them being a great headline than a great football player.

I am not a fan of the approach but I can not fault a person for wanting to capitalize on his one shot at securing his financial future.

Cleveland I suspect is getting the drama that they wanted. Neither Hoyer nor Manziel is ready to start a regular season NFL game. Hoyer has been around 6 years with a total of 4 starts, Manziel is a rookie with out any experience. Neither are a solid choice for a starter IMHO.

The situation in Cleveland is either an engineered soap-opera, or an example of piss pore management.

Definitey the latter, and if it is also the former, they are doing an excellent job.

They have a life-long Steeler fan as an owner, and I think he is being indicted. They play musical chairs with coaches & FO, and have had 30+ qbs's and zero playoff games in the past 10 years.
