Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel has revealed that he is eager to bounce back from his disappointing NFL starting debut on Sunday.

The Browns ran an NFL season-low 38 offensive plays, with Manziel throwing for just 80 yards and two interceptions in the 30-0 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

"First time I've ever not scored a point or been shut out. Played in a lot of games, through high school and through college. Never been shut out, so it's definitely tough," Manziel told reporters.

"I left some throws on the field I would have wanted back. I felt like I could do everything I needed to from the pocket yesterday. Whenever I did have the chance to break the pocket, I felt some things happened where we weren't able to capitalise on."

Cleveland coach Mike Pettine agrees with the signal-caller's assessment that there were flashes of progress on the field but believes that the entire offense produced a poor display.

Pettine emphasised that Manziel had been "quite productive" in practices and he is keen to avoid judging him on his first NFL start alone.
