Call me a total fair weather bandwagon stooge.

I was fed up to my eyeballs with Shedeur Sanders (and one-man clown car Mel Kiper) during the draft, but now I want to see him light it up and win the job. Or at least have the fans asking the Joe Milton question: "Why isn't this dude playing?"

He got off to a good start last night.

Yeah, he looked good against a terrible defense that should make mediocre QBs around the league look good. He got over that low bar with no problem. So good for him.
I know I'm sounding sarcastic here, but I really am rooting for the kid. I think it would be quite the story if he was the one to lead the Browns to the Super Bowl (but lose to the Lions).

Bonus points for Carolina fans with Steve Smith and Jake "You" Delhomme being in the booth for the game call.
