However, the 49ers use a stunt and still blitz four, as it frees up the left outside edge rusher. He has a free release at Manziel. Manziel quickly picks up the blitz and makes a quick throw at his hot receiver Gary Barnidge. This play shows the awareness of Manziel and how he has a firm gasp of the Browns offense and how to adjust against defenses.
