Browns vs. Saints: Week 9 Need to Know

The Cleveland Browns close out their three-game road trip on Sunday when they face the New Orleans Saints.

What would have been an otherwise humdrum game has taken on a new level of something between excitement and dread with the news that the Browns will start Shedeur Sanders at quarterback.

Sanders will get his first start of the season thanks to Deshaun Watson still being in the league-mandated concussion protocol. And not to put too much pressure on Sanders, but the Browns are in the heat of a playoff race while the Saints are simply trying to get out of their own way each week as they bumble through the season.
