Shedeur Sanders named starter for rest of the season

He had been set up to fail since the moment he stepped foot Cleveland and it doesn’t matter because he is too skilled and too mentally tough. No one has overcome what he has had to at the start of his career.

The league tried to blacklist him. They tried to embarrass him and Deion. Cleveland wanted nothing to do with him. 4th string QB coming into camp. No first team reps until a couple of weeks ago. Stefanski and co trying to gaslight the fans into believing that Gabriel is a better QB than Shedeur LOL.

Putting on the tape of the Brown Titans game yesterday it is comical how much better Shedeur looked than the first Overall pick Cam Ward. Shedeur is the best QB from this draft class and the tape doesn’t lie. It is cool watching Dart run around and make plays but he is not surgical like Shedeur.

We have never the entire league collude against a player like we have with Shedeur and he is going to make the league pay. Cleveland got the 1st overall pick in the 5th round and they don’t deserve to have lucked into getting Shedeur. There is still time for the haters to backtrack on Shedeur… because you won’t be able to deny reality for much longer.

Hey Deion welcome to the board. In all fairness he did look legit but its early days. Can’t annoint a QB as good until at least year 2-3 when teams have had a chance to study them

This is so funny thinking this is a conspiracy. If a team thought he wasn’t such a douche they would have drafted him. Many idiots are drafted because they think they will work out. Time will tell…, but I don’t think teams are losing sleep over their “collusion”.

LOL. We saw it play out in real time. Gabriel drafted and started ahead of Shedeur on the same team. There is not a single player/coach/talent evaluator in the entire league that would think Gabriel is better than Shedeur. Not a single one unless they are dishonest. Now that Shedeur got a chance to play we all see that Cleveland is full of shit trying to gaslight fans into thinking Gabriel is better.

But sure it’s a conspiracy.

Idk. I do think it was weird. Every year we watch guys with huge character red flags get drafted bc at the end of the day, talent trumps all.

I certainly don’t think he did himself any favors. Nor did Deion but I think he had more talent than the 5th round. He would have been much better served to be quiet and political instead of the comments and reports of him telling teams not to draft him.

Kiper is definitely wrong sometimes but he was pretty consistent in saying Sanders was top QB in class.

I don’t know. I don’t have a dog in this fight. Not a huge Sanders guy but the talent was there in college and is clearly there now. I don’t get how he dropped that far in the draft and how it took Cleveland that long to give him a chance. Heck, I don’t even get how they pulled him on that 2-pt conversion yesterday. Look what happened when they did!

If he beats Chicago, I’ll believe you.

If he doesn’t, he goes back into the “sucks” pile of other QBs I don’t care about.

This league let DeSean Watson continue to play in it.

Nobody black listed PrimeTimes kid. That’s for certain.

He’s played solid, so deserves credit. But he’s shown to be as immature as they come. It’s not rocket science why he fell in the draft.

He lost to a one win Titans team (26th defensively) at home and in the snow. Weather can do strange things during a football game. Count me as still being skeptical.

I mean he almost won the Alamo Bowl. That’s a sign of once-in-a-generation talent.

I thought he was a 2nd round type talent but there’s no situation where Dillion Gabriel should have played or been drafted over him.

That’s still crazy to me

He’s kind of the ideal backup other than he thinks he’s a star. Or at least he did. Similar to Matt Leinart.

He’s getting the W!! That defense is tough. If offense scores 20 They win

They scored 20 yesterday and…? He is my 2nd favorite QB in the NFL this week. Right behind Goff and just ahead of Nix.

I support Shedeur and root for his success. Your post still got a poop emoji from me. What a horrible understanding of football and decorum.

The thing that put me over the, “Who the ■■■■ are you kidding???”, threshold is when Colorado retired his jersey.

Yea, Sanders showing up to the team meetings unprepared and with attitude and bombing his whiteboard sessions might be a more realistic reason teams didn’t want to drop a high pick and huge $$$ on him.

Combine that with shit like the coach being crushed on social media…accused of racism if Sanders isn’t playing, the coach being accused of sabotaging his own career and taking L’s on purpose…just so he can make Sanders look bad :roll_eyes:

Or it could just be that the whole NFL hates everything Sanders more than they want to win, I guess. Seems legit

Of course he is purposely trying to sabotage Sanders. Do you honestly believe that if he cared about winning games he would’ve started Dillon Gabriel ahead of him? Do you believe that Stefanski truly believes that Gabriel is better than Sanders? Because if so he is the only person besides Gabriel’s family that would believe that.

I dont think the league necessarily colluded, but his draft fall does show something about Groupthink and a fear of taking certain risks.
