Cleveland Browns rookie Shedeur Sanders<\/a> was blunt with his messages after he helped deliver a win in his first NFL start Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.<\/p>\n

He warned the rest of the league that a full offseason with the first team might make the Browns<\/a> look “dangerous” and he vowed to all of his critics that he wasn\u2019t going to fail. Sanders was criticized on social media as being arrogant when he made those remarks after going 11-of-20 for 209 yards and a touchdown.<\/p>\n

Former NFL star Shawne Merriman told Fox News Digital in a recent interview that he was “on the fence” with some of the remarks that Sanders had made and could see why he would get the critiques of being arrogant or overconfident.<\/p>\n

“But the other side of that is, I do not want to play with a quarterback who\u2019s not confident. I just don\u2019t. I think, me personally, I think that little bit of cockiness that Shedeur has gives the Browns a sense that they got a chance to win every week, which they have not had the entire season,” the former San Diego Chargers linebacker said while praising Myles Garrett<\/a> and the Cleveland defense.<\/p>\n

“When you have them, all they need is a defense. When you\u2019re playing at that level, you have to feel like you\u2019re walking into a game and you got a chance to win. That is enough. And I think that Shedeur\u2019s confidence, whether people like it or not, it resonates through that locker room. You saw the guys on the sideline when he made that 50-plus-yard pass \u2013 that stuff is contagious. You\u2019re walking that fine line of confidence and then saying things that can be considered cocky. You can tell that is a different team and I\u2019m not just talking about just playing-wise. They walk into that game a lot more confident with Shedeur starting at quarterback.”<\/p>\n

Sanders got the nod for the Browns\u2019 Week 13 game against the San Francisco 49ers.<\/p>\n

Merriman expected big things to come for Sanders if he goes out and gets another win.<\/p>\n

“I know there\u2019s a lot of outside pressure and media and him going fifth round and just everything outside the locker room,” he told Fox News Digital. “What happened with Shedeur is the best possible situation for him. You had two quarterbacks in front of him who did not pan out. What you want to do is don\u2019t rush it, don\u2019t listen to the people outside the locker room. He stayed the course and stayed positive. His time is here.<\/p>\n

“If he goes out and has another win this week<\/a>, he will solidify himself as a starting quarterback going forward. He just has to ignore the stuff outside the locker room and keep doing what he\u2019s doing.”<\/p>\n
