I'd be more worried about Houston's D, and the Broncos inability to sustain much offense. The Raiders are a mess, so he can take that game off. KC they need him.
As to Shedeur, the biggest issue is the distraction. It's a damn circus now that he's "one play away" from (finally) being a starter in the NFL - something so many people think he should be, and think every team got wrong in not drafting him out of spite. People (fans, many scouts as you said, pundits, etc.) think he's going to be a very good QB in this league, so at some point we're going to have to find out. I think they should start him right now, get it over with. Every single game Gabriel is out there isn't fair to Gabriel, or the Browns fans. Every single throw, step, gesture, every uttered word by Gabriel is scrutinized, ready to toss him aside. And despite players and teams hating backup players getting so much attention, Shedeur seems to like it. So, just get him out there. If he has it (like he says), great, they can start winning, and faster than with Gabriel. If not, they'll find out.
Curious how the Ravens look tomorrow night. They have Lamar back, Ronnie Staley back, and are basically at full strength for the first time since the Buffalo game. Miami played well last week, so this could be an interesting game.
