“Get some help”: CFB fans react as Titans HC Brian Callahan draws likeness between Shedeur Sanders and Joe Burrow

Shedeur Sanders will be one of the first quarterbacks taken in the 2025 NFL draft. The Tennessee Titans have the first pick in the upcoming draft, and they'll most likely use that pick on a new franchise QB.

Hence, it surely raised some eyebrows when Titans head coach Brian Callahan compared Sanders to Cincinnati Bengals superstar Joe Burrow.

"People had questions about Burrow’s arm strength in general coming out," Callahan told ESPN's Turron Davenport. "One of the things that makes Joe so unique, and I think you can probably put Shedeur in the same conversation."

Here's what the college world had to say.
