Browns 2-6 After Patriots Loss; QB Uncertainty

The Cleveland Browns fell to 2-6 after a 32-13 loss to the New England Patriots, exposing a sputtering offense despite Myles Garrett’s five-sack performance. Rookie starter Dillon Gabriel has produced inconsistent results and turnovers in his early starts, prompting fans and media to demand a change. Second rookie Shedeur Sanders has yet to make a regular-season debut, was inactive with a back issue, and signaled support for calls to bench Gabriel by liking a social-media post. Trade rumors around Sanders have swirled, though Browns ownership has insisted he remains part of the team's future. Pressure is mounting on coach Kevin Stefanski, GM Andrew Berry and ownership to reassess the quarterback room and potentially the wider roster as the team enters its bye week.
