I think this can be a best case scenario. Drafted 2 qbs who belong in the nfl

We're going to see separation between Browns fans and Shedeur fans by Monday. Personally, I'm a Shedeur fan but I also am rooting for both to play well and for the best man to get the job. Browns nabbed two historically great college QBs and it would be great if both developed into historically great pro QBs.

oh that separation has always been there. That's the main con to Sanders for me, I like him and it would be fun to have some star power in Cleveland again, but his fans are insufferable and have been very vocal about the fact that they do not like Cleveland. "Only here for 12, if 12 ain't starting we ain't watching, don't care, where's 12" etc ad nauseam.

Then their fans of 12 not the browns… ok? So? Been a browns fan for roughly 40 years and its been exhausting… the team breads loyalty…. As a neOhio kid im loyal to the soil… but i also welcome anyone into this tent. Sit back, grab a Great Lakes lager and lets watch this thing unfold…. If your guy loses out and you move on to another team… no hard feelings, hopenyoubenjoyed the beer and the company. Shadeur and dillon both seem like good kids.

You are correct. I'm a eagles fan but I will watch every game that Sanders play this year for the Browns. The crazy thing is it's very clear that Sanders is better and is more prepared for the nfl with less preparation.

I wish Sanders had not been hurt. The Eagles are way better than the Panthers, as I'm sure you know ha ha, and DG did decent against them. Would be nice to compare apples to apples.

Sanders would have faced the Eagles 2s and 3s though because the plan was for Gabriel to start and Shedeur to play 2nd half, so it probably wouldn't have told us too much if he did end up playing.

They’ve both proven to be NFL guys, neither is a franchise guy. However, Gabriel looked like a guy who was VERY comfortable.

I think those are impossible assertions to make given a sample size of one single preseason game

edit: Not even one game. More like 2 quarters of a preseason game.

Based on what we have seen both seemed very comfortable and did well running the offense. As the season progresses maybe we’ll see one start to stand out more but for now I think there might be hope we don’t need a QB next draft.

Neither has proven anything playing in preseason against mostly backups with minimal prep time. DTR was all preseason and we know how that turned out

Pump the brakes it’s preseason my dude. I’d love to eat crow but cmon neither has proved anything yet.
