Description

Dillon Gabriel's Stellar Start Is BAD NEWS For Shedeur Sanders as Skip Bayless & The Arena Gridiron Crew react to Dillon Gabriel's first start for the Cleveland Browns and debate if the rookie's passable performance will be enough to keep their other polarizing rookie quarterback in Shedeur Sanders off the field. They grade Gabriel's performance as the 3rd round pick was able to keep the Browns in the game against the Minnesota Vikings and explode in supreme debate over whether or not the NFL Media is giving Gabriel a fair shot due to their desire to see Shedeur take the field.
