CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Cleveland Browns’ offensive struggles have fans and media pointing fingers at rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel, but the latest episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast reveals a much more complex and troubling reality: the problems extend throughout the entire unit.

“The passing game has such problems that go far beyond the quarterback right now. And we even saw that with Joe Flacco. You plug Joe Flacco into the Bengals and he’s throwing for 342 yards, connecting 16 times with Ja’Marr Chase. So obviously the problems on this offense run much deeper right now than the quarterback,” Browns beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot said on the podcast.
