The Cleveland Browns fell 23-9 to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, ending rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel's chance to join an exclusive list of first-year signal-callers who have defeated Pittsburgh.
Only Tim Couch had previously accomplished that feat in Pittsburgh, doing so back in 1999. Gabriel completed 29 of 52 passes for 221 yards without a touchdown or interception, while absorbing six sacks from a relentless Steelers defense.
A concerning statistic from Gabriel’s performance is that he
completed FOUR passes over 10 yards in the air today. He threw the ball FIFTY-TWO times, as noted by NFLCB’s Mikey on X.
