Browns Watson vs Sanders for QB1

I watched a clip of all the passes to KC, and man if Watson can just hit him where it's supposed to be half the time, that all on it's own might be a game changer with his speed and evasion. I'm worried that KC not getting the ball is going to support his concentration drops evaluation. Repetition is so key for a lot of these young guys, and Watson is failing him, so far.
 
Some have said on 𝕏, if Sanders were doing this, we’d be praising him.

That is somewhat true, as Sanders gets the benefit of being young and developing with the hope of getting better.

Watson best hope is he has a career resurgence.
Mike Vick is the only other player who somewhat did what he’s trying to do.
And yes, Vick won respectably, but never played a full season, never won a playoff game, and many consider him the greatest dual threat QB of all time.

Watson isn’t Mike Vick in speed or arm strength.
Vick also didn’t stumble through poor play and major injuries upon his return.

Stranger things and all, and I’m fine if he keeps being clutch. I still think there’s a <1% chance he’s our long term answer.

Certainly done would praise Sanders if these were his performances. Which to an extent is fair. Sanders doesn't exactly have a lot of NFL experience.

Some could and have praised Watson for his. Which to an extent is fair. Considering how long it had been since Watson last played, the injuries prior, the suspension,and the sitting out a year.

In either case those are valid reasons to give some benefit to either guy. What it comes down to will be week to week improvement (in film review) and consistency snap to snap, quarter to quarter, and week to week
 
OK.. Game 4.. still a Watson hater.... that hasn't changed.. THAT BEING SAID: Watson took another step forward against the Steelers today. He at least started challenging down the field a little more today. We need that from him. What really like is that I'm seeing is that his mobility is there. The doctor who did the second surgery must have done an amazing job.. He did not look like this after the first surgery. He made some more plays with his feet today.. We need that... He's still holding the ball too long.. and too much dink and dunk for me..especially when we have receivers who can stretch the field.. The OC needs to get Bond more involved, as well as Jeudy who made a couple clutch catches today in the 4th quarter. The OL.. still needs a lot of work.. but Watson is trying to stand in there. which isn't easy with the heat he's getting. The OL..appears that it needs 2-3 more games together to sort it all out.. maybe more.. they are a long way still from playing together as a cohesive unit... but as I've said many times.. you bring in all new pieces on the OL.. that takes time.. amazing that we are 3-1 given that situation... That's a tribute to Monken and his play calling.... He knows Pittsburgh.. and he was ready.. Great win today.. any win against the Squeelers is a great win..
