"BEREA, Ohio -- For the second consecutive season, the Browns are 2-6. And Cleveland enters its Week 9 bye on the heels of another anemic offensive performance in a 32-13 loss to the New England Patriots. That defeat has added to the many questions surrounding the Browns' quarterback situation, which includes rookies Dillon Gabriel, Shedeur Sanders and veteran Deshaun Watson."
"Despite Gabriel throwing two interceptions against New England and posting the second-lowest Total QBR (25.8) in the NFL -- above only Tennessee Titans rookie Cam Ward -- Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said he would stick with the 24-year-old for the team's Week 10 road game against the New York Jets ( Nov. 9, 1 p.m., CBS). Meanwhile, Sanders, who was inactive last Sunday because of a back injury, awaits his opportunity during a regular-season game."
The Browns sit 2-6 entering a Week 9 bye after a 32-13 loss to the Patriots that intensified questions about the quarterback room. Dillon Gabriel has started four games since replacing Joe Flacco and has overseen only a modest scoring increase, with Cleveland averaging 17.5 points in his starts versus 14 in Flacco's. Gabriel threw two interceptions and has the second-lowest Total QBR (25.8) in the NFL, yet coach Kevin Stefanski said he will remain the starter for Week 10. Shedeur Sanders was inactive with a back issue, Deshaun Watson continues Achilles rehabilitation, and Bailey Zappe is on the practice squad.
