It's been a tough start to the NFL season for some quarterbacks. But Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who is clearly itching to get out on the field, says he can measure up with the rest of the league's QBs.

After a competitive race for the Browns' QB1 job, Sanders and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel lost out on the starting job to Joe Flacco. While waiting on the bench, Sanders, who has yet to play a regular-season snap, said Thursday he could do better than some other NFL starters.

Defensive linemen love hearing this stuff.

He probably is higher rated than the 32nd QB in the league. So was Marcus Vick.

Dude is self-confident. He’s a QB. Who wants a QB who would think otherwise. He’s third string and he’s done a good job so far of handling that.

Word in the front offices is he has a reading tutor. Can’t read the playbook. You heard it here first - they’re not reporting it because “racism”. Marvin Harrison ( I have no idea who that is) has a reading tutor as well. The NFL and the NBA are pulling talented young people from colleges that have a 2nd grade reading level. College classmates and instructors/ administrators wouldn’t dare say anything because “racism” SAT’s are waived.

The tyranny of low expectations

Colin Kapernick liked attention too didn’t do much for the NFL or his future.

He wants out of Cleveland - I’ll bet the coaches and GM are happy to hear that. I can just imagine what he tells his QB coach p> “ I can handle things,coach! I smart! I ain’t dumb like thems people say!

How’s his game? Can yousee that his footwork and passes are the worst of any NFL quarterback anyone has ever seen.

He’s Bronny Jr - a publicity stunt- that’s all

Some advice for the young, stupid QB...
“Shut up and play”
Words mean nothing, either you can do the work, or you can’t.

He might be right to the extent he might be marginally better. But the bigger issue is that no team wants to put up with his BS and the baggage that comes with it. That will ruin a team. He may be good, but he's not THAT good.

The NFL needs a minor league like baseball has, so these Hot shots can sit and learn for a few years until they get to the bigs.

He’s so ‘ready’ he isn’t even getting snaps in practice. Narcissism is its own reward. Told Baltimore not to draft him because he didn’t think he might have something to learn by working with Lamar Jackson and watching him play for a couple years.

Someone tell Sanders there is no crying in Football which he did against the Rams in the final pre season game. He looked like total crap and was pulled for the 4th string QB to try to win the game in the last two minutes. (which He did)
