It's idiocy to evaluate his career based on his first game.
you're acting like it's solely sports. setting aside his sports sucked so far, dude runs his mouth, doesn't want to play by a team's rules, etc. what usually gets you a second shot someplace is either (a) baker mayfield -- you played well once someplace before a slump -- BUZZ here so far and (b) some degree of belief you are a professional and will show up for practice, absorb coaching, and run the offense as wanted. particularly for a backup. maybe you let some awesome star get cute. the backup is expected to be a reliable follower of orders.
that and i don't think you're acknowledging how bad this was. 25% completions. like i can see a CFL team taking a hard pass.
or that he wasn't 17-29 for preseason, where it starts to look like a scattershot pattern in general.
also, let's be real. you have QBs out hurt. your third string sees action.
your third string plays well -- purdy -- you run him right back out there.
he plays ok but you lose, judgment call.
he sucks and looks incompetent................you maybe go sign a street free agent. maybe he gets one more week.
i used to be a texans fan, and i remember during one "tank" period we went through a bunch of QBs who could manage maybe 150 yards on a good day. TJ Yates, for example.
to be fair, case keenum was one of them, 0-8 his first year here. but he netted positive on TD vs. INT. and on the right team he was decent.
if you have talent the question is a la mayfield do you eventually land someplace sanely run and decently stocked where you can reprove yourself. but if you run your mouth and do not produce first stop how many charitable second chances do you even get.
i mean, colin k could actually play and he basically got blackballed. if you rub people the wrong way and your current employer ceases to see the sports point, there may never be another stop. it's not a strict meritocracy, they have choices, they have to think you will behave and produce.
He played fairly well in preseason and here he subbed for a concussed Gabriel for half a game, so he didn't have first team reps. I think he'll be a lot better after a week leading the first team in practice and getting a full game. At that point, if he doesn't look like a pro qb, it's back to Gabriel the rest of the year.
how you can have a team of players who are the absolute pinnacle of the sport and they cant play together to win a game. Like how is it possible to be that bad
1988: Soviet Union wins gold in basketball
1992: US says, "F that, bring on the Dream Team." US crushes everyone in winning gold.
"The US will NEVER lose gold again with our pros playing!"
2004: Argentina says, "Hello."
Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James, Tim Duncan, Dwayne Wade, Lamar Odom, Allen Iverson, Carlos Boozer, and everyone else take home the bronze.
dude was 4-16 for 47 yards in.a half of ball, that's pitiful.
he has not and continues not to get 1st team reps. so when he gets in a game, he's basically thrown to the wolves. he is not well coached by the browns.
Approximately $200,000 in property was stolen from the home of Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders during a break-in Sunday, according to police.
If I was coach of the Browns I'd say listen up Shedeur we don't care who your old man is, you are a below average player in this league - you have proven nothing.
The first step forward for you means you will remove the gold necklace, you will not wear it at any team facility or event - you leave your bling for your own time.
This is the NFL, you want to play in a mans league - act like a man who wants to be there.

Then I'd tell that cat he has a real purdy mouth and to show me how badly he wants to be on this team.
