"As offensive futility marred another loss for the Cleveland Browns, the most recent a 34-10 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, quarterback Joe Flacco's struggles were once again at the center of the defeat. The 40-year-old passer turned the ball over three times, increasing his season total to eight giveaways. Through four games, the Browns have the NFL's second-lowest scoring offense (14 points per game). However, coach Kevin Stefanski on Sunday declined to place the blame for the problems on offense solely on Flacco."
"Even if the Browns were to make a move to rookie Dillon Gabriel, who has served as the backup through four games, recurring themes including drops and pass protection would need to be improved to help turn around the Browns' offense. The Browns dropped three passes against the Lions, two of which preceded a major swing in the loss. Trailing 20-10 early in the fourth quarter,"
The Cleveland Browns fell 34-10 to the Detroit Lions as offensive struggles continued, with quarterback Joe Flacco committing three turnovers and totaling eight on the season. The Browns rank second-lowest in scoring through four games at 14 points per game. Coach Kevin Stefanski declined to place all accountability on Flacco and said the offense and coaching must improve. Rookie backup Dillon Gabriel remains an option, but issues like drops and pass protection must be fixed. The Browns dropped three passes against Detroit, including back-to-back drops that preceded a 65-yard punt-return touchdown that widened the deficit.
