Sorry, Johnny Manziel.

The Cleveland Browns made the decision everyone expected on Wednesday, when head coach Mike Petting announced Brian Hoyer would be the team’s starting quarterback for the season-opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The news was met with mixed reaction, with the Johnny Manziel fans throwing fits of outrage while those who have been rooting against him took a little time to gloat.
Here is what fans are saying on social media:
I don't think the Hoyer decision was made based on play. Hoyer was awful vs. WAS and is average at best. This was about comfort w/coaches.

Imagine how hilarious this will seem in a year. Brian Hoyer is going to start a game over a healthy Johnny Manziel. Wow.

Urban Meyer wants to know if he can borrow Johnny Manziel since Cleveland won't be using him.

Johnny Manziel honestly probably would've been the starter if he didn't pull his arrogant crap
