This just makes no sense to me. We know Mobley is capable of taking a game over. Why is he regularly disappearing for #Cavs this season, especially on a night like tonight?
On a night where the Cavs needed him most, Evan Mobley took fewer shots than Na’Qwon Tomlin, Tyrese Proctor, and Jaylon Tyson.

On the one hand, hard to get too upset #Cavs lost on a night where they were on the road on the 2nd night of a back-to-back down 5 rotation players when Spida shot 6/20. On the other hand, how does Mobley only have 14 points when he’s easily your 2nd best player on the floor tonight?

I don’t think there’s any scenario where Gabriel is going to put a team on his back and win an NFL game. I think it’s unlikely that Sanders could, but it seems possible (at least on occasion). That, if no other reason, should compel #Browns to keep Sanders QB1.

Sanders made a couple nice plays and threw an atrocious INT. #Browns should keep playing him; it’s obvious what Gabriel is at this point. Browns beat a Raiders team probably playing as bad as an team in the NFL. A meaningless win that will harm their draft decision.

After watching him at ❌ichigan I never understood why he was projected as a first rounder. It often seemed that they game planned AROUND him having to pass.
J.J. McCarthy now ranks 851 out of 852 in EPA per Dropback among qualified passers since 2000, per Tru Media. The only player below McCarthy is JaMarcus Russell.

The #Browns defense is potentially playoff-caliber. The Browns offense is number 1 draft pick-caliber. And the defense is going to prevent the Browns from the number 1 (or possibly even top 5) pick too.

Both the Raiders and #Browns have been abysmal of late. Question is will Browns defense be able to shutdown the Raiders offense enough to compensate for all the limitations the Browns offense will have with Sanders at the helm. I expect a really ugly game. CLE 17 - LV 13.

It’s officially ❌ichigan week.
#Buckeyes are probably in the playoff no matter what, but they need a win at TTUN this season in the worst way.

Share this video about Kenny Lofton far and wide. I know what I witnessed. He was unquestionably a Hall of Famer. www.instagram.com/reel/DRQL3Sv...
Brooke on Instagram: "Kenny Lofton would have been rated far higher if he played in a clean Era. #MLB #cleveland #Brookeknowsball #fyp #Baseball #FYP #Foryou #sports"
Kenny Lofton's remarkable speed, agility, and all-around skills made him a dominant force in 90s baseball. However, his clean game was overshadowed by the steroid era, leading to his underappreciation...

All true. But also, the #Cavs have been shorthanded all season due to injuries and Atkinson has been forced to employ a number of unconventional lineups to get through games. Very hard to judge this team under those circumstances.
The #Cavs look like a team that knows you’re judged on playoff success, not the regular season.
They started 15-0 last season and finished with a historically good offense. Those things are footnotes of another playoff failure story.
Still…effort means *something*

Sanders made a go of a drive there but the playcalling was somehow not prepared for an obvious blitz situation. #Browns dropping to 2-8.

Both #Browns tackles are not out of the game. The OL was abysmal with both playing. Sanders has no chance.
Browns RT Jack Conklin just walked out of the blue tent and is headed to the locker room

Pretty surprised Ravens went there on 4th & 1 while in FG range given state of #Browns offense, but a fake tush push end around with Mark Andrews goes to the house as Browns defense was faked out badly. That should about do it.

Sanders is under duress almost immediately on every pass play and is running into tons of lost yardage and on the last play, an intentional grounding. Hard to imagine #Browns scoring another point in this one on offense.

Tie game now at 16 with 5 minutes left and now #Browns will have to let Sanders try to make some plays. Like the preseason, his pocket presence has been pretty awful. Need to design quick throws.

#Browns defense has been outstanding. Team has no business being in this game with 119 yards of offense & a turnover that gave BAL the ball in the CLE redzone. But because of the defense, Browns currently lead 16-13. I don’t think they’ll be able to hold on, but it’s an incredible effort regardless.

This seems super possible. And an incredible way indictment of how awful the #Browns offense is.
Pretty feasible world where the Browns finish 2-15 with both the DPOY and DROY on the roster.

Given how green Sanders is and how incredibly the #Browns defense is playing, I think this Browns offense is going to go into extreme ball protection mode as long as they have the lead.

Well it’s due to injury rather than the ineffectiveness of Gabriel, but we’re about to see Sanders’ #Browns debut, who comes out to thunderous applause.

By the way, Sanders probably won’t be good either! But Gabriel is doing absolutely nothing to show you he’s a longterm answer at QB. He doesn’t even look like a guy that can occasionally win you a game as a quality backup. #Browns owe it to themselves to see what else is in their QB room.
I can’t imagine how bad and/or ill-prepared Sanders must be for the #Browns to keep rolling with Gabriel, who has literally no NFL-caliber skill.
