During our training camp preview on the quarterback position for the Cleveland Browns, we asked two poll questions about the expectations for players.

In Part 1 of our preview, we asked fans what their expectations are for QB Deshaun Watson. 54% if fans think he’ll be a very solid quarterback, but not quite his former self. 37% think he’ll return to his elite form. Together, that is 91% confidence in Watson, which is very high. Only 9% think he’ll be inconsistent or laughably bad.

In Part 2 of our preview, we asked fans who they think will be the Browns’ backup quarterback this season. 70% of fans voted for Joshua Dobbs, but then rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson got a bit of support with 26%. Kellen Mond only received 4% of the votes, which is ironic since the Browns waived Dobbs mid-way through last season and kept Mond on the roster instead.
