"The Cleveland Browns turned to rookie Dillon Gabriel in Week 5 in an attempt to jumpstart an anemic offense. And while the third-round pick threw a pair of touchdowns and took care of the ball in a performance that Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said was filled with a "lot of positives," similar issues surfaced for Cleveland's offense in a 21-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, as the unit failed to eclipse 17 points for the 10th straight game, dating to last season."
""Obviously can always be better and certainly we as an offense have to be better and score more to help this football team," Stefanski said Monday. "But for a young player in that environment versus that defense, to take care of the ball, make the plays he made, I thought was a lot of positives with plenty to clean up. And that's what he will do, and that's the mentality he has is certainly to be a player that continues to get better week in and week out.""
The Browns turned to rookie Dillon Gabriel in Week 5 to jumpstart an anemic offense. Gabriel threw two touchdowns and took care of the ball in a 21-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The offense failed to eclipse 17 points for the tenth straight game, dating to last season. Coach Kevin Stefanski praised Gabriel's performance as having positives while noting there is plenty to clean up. Sunday's game was the first all season without a turnover after Joe Flacco was benched following eight turnovers. The team ran a conservative game plan that fit Gabriel's quick processing and shorter time to throw.
