Manziel benched in second half of first CFL start

"In making his first professional football start since December 2015 while with the Cleveland Browns, Manziel threw four interceptions ... all of which came in the first half of a 50-11 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats."

"It did not go well from the start. Two of Manziel's first four passes were picked off by his former CFL team. A third interception came early in the second quarter. The fourth interception came late in the second quarter with his team down 35-3 and the game already out of reach."

"I think I may have been too amped up. I think I did a bad job of setting the tone on that first drive," Manziel said. "This is a humbling experience."

11/20, 104 yards, and 4 ints... Oh, and 2 tackles.

At that point, the Alouettes were down 47-3.
Autzen Stadium... Where great teams go to die...Hard!
