Daryl Ruiter: “I’d Go Back to Deshaun for Now”

Daryl Ruiter tells Ken and Lima he would start Deshaun Watson against the Texans, disagreeing with Bill Cowher because the Browns are 5-4, still in the playoff picture, and the offense didn’t look drastically different with Shedeur Sanders. He supports going for two but questions the fourth-and-two decision, says Sanders deserves no pass for the slow first three quarters, and calls the Jared Verse situation close to a real problem. Ruiter also says the defense failed twice to close out the game and that the Browns’ penalties, the most in the NFL, are hurting them.
