The Cleveland Browns have won their first game with Shedeur Sanders under center, taking their record to 3-8 on the season in a 24-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Myles Garrett registered three sacks, taking his season total up to 18 on the season, while Quinshon Judkins ran for two scores.
While the Browns had the game in hand for 60 minutes, they did something with under a minute remaining that raised eyebrows. With the ball just yards away from the red zone at the 29 yard-line, the Browns opted to punt on fourth down rather than kick a field goal. Perhaps Kevin Stefanski was worried about a blocked kick being returned for a touchdown, which we've seen plenty of this season, but it still felt odd to see with the Browns leading by two scores.
Now at 3-8, the Browns will take on the San Francisco 49ers in Cleveland where we will see if Shedeur Sanders will start another game, and win if he does. The rookie went 11-of-20 for 209 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
