Craig Carton Critiques Fellow Broadcaster's Take on Shaur Sanders and Todd Monken

Craig Carton, known for his sharp opinions on sports broadcasting, recently expressed his disagreement with a fellow broadcaster's controversial comment regarding Shaur Sanders and NFL coach Todd Monken. Carton pointed out that the commentator, despite being intelligent, made an ill-informed statement on his less popular podcast, the Speakies. He criticized the advice given to Sanders, suggesting that he should disregard the coaching of Todd Monken, questioning what Monken has accomplished in the NFL.

Carton defended Monken, highlighting his successful track record both in the NFL and at the collegiate level. He emphasized that Monken, known for his offensive expertise, could significantly improve Sanders' performance, contrasting Monken's potential impact with the lack of progress under the previous coaching with Kevin Stefansky and the Browns staff. Carton also referenced Monken's effective tenure as Lamar Jackson's offensive coordinator during one of Jackson's MVP years, reinforcing Monken's credible and substantial resume.

Furthermore, Carton criticized the broadcaster's approach as a desperate attempt for attention and engagement, labeling it as "beyond the pale of stupidity." Carton, asserting his preference for straightforward and honest dialogue in sports commentary, questioned the credibility of the commentator's opinions on broadcasting. He concluded by reflecting on his own standards and success in attracting an audience without resorting to sensationalism.
