Fans are blasting former ESPN college football and NFL host Robert Griffin III after the successful preseason debut of Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders.

In recent days, Griffin was suggesting that a limited number of reps that Sanders indicated that the Browns were setting the rookie up for failure.

‘Shedeur Sanders is being set up to fail in Cleveland,’ Griffin posted on Aug. 4. ‘But God’s got him showing out even with limited reps.’

In spite of the limited reps with the first teamers, Sanders was given the start to the Browns’ first preseason game on Friday night against the Carolina Panthers.

He balled out. Sanders tossed two touchdowns and threw for 138 yards as the Browns defeated the Panthers 30-10.

After Sanders impressed everyone on the field, Griffin shifted his tone in a post-game message: ‘Many thought Shedeur Sanders would fail after being thrown to the wolves… BUT GOD saw fit that Shedeur Sanders would come back leading the pack. Faith and hard work always pay off. Perfect Timing.’

Fans were quick to blast a critic of Shedeur Sanders’ for his quick turn of tone on his NFL start

NFL fans promptly noticed the change and called out the former Heisman Trophy winner. Griffin hasn’t addressed any of the criticism he’s faced.

‘You said he was being set up to fail… so you were wrong,’ one fan replied.

Former ESPN star Trey Wingo even chimed in, saying, ‘No Olympic swimmer has back stroked faster.’ 

‘You’re a more embarrassing analyst than you were NFL QB and that’s [sic] says a lot,’ another fan posted. 

Another wrote, ‘Buddy this is lame… even for you’.

Sanders strong performance drew plenty of praise – not only from coach Kevin Stefanski, but also from LeBron James, Richard Sherman, and his father – Deion Sanders.

The next opportunity where Browns fans could get a glimpse of Sanders is an August 16 matchup against the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
