DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Gameday vs Minnesota Gabriel Named Starter

Mental or physical? If you're referring to the former we may have just found ours.

What it shows is his total immaturity. You are right that it doesn't make him a bad guy. It's just proof that he has a lot of growing up to do.

Rex Ryan is a clown. Exactly the kind of "entertainer" Gabriel was talking about in his quip. That said, I didn't want Sanders for one reason above all others... the distraction machine. His talent never justified the hype; he may turn out ok but I doubt it. He's by all accounts a pretty decent kid and he does work hard I gather. He's a lighthearted and fun kid, that's all I see in that "pantomime" spot but when I watch him play I see a backup. He's got good size and a solid arm, he's pretty good like half the time but he's not decisive in a good way when he has multiple reads, he doesn't have great skills when things break down and he has a bunch of unconscious bad habits like drifting. All that would be expected and fine for a backup QB except this is Cleveland and now everyone has to have a huge opinion and conversation about the backup QB. The only upside is that it's allowed Gabriel to fly under the radar.

It's pretty easy to fly under the radar when you aren't leaving blips on the screen.

I got what I wanted one game after it should have happened. Trade Sanders for a cold hot dog. Not a blip on radar screen, you must be sightless- all conference in THREE tough leagues- if Gabriel had been 6' 3" he'd have been number one pick. Go Gabriel, Go Browns!!

Who do you think would be willing to give up that cold hot dog?

No worries, I wouldn't have taken it that way.

It doesn’t help when his dad gives him a figurative thumbs up on social media for his pantomime.

What with all the Vikes injuries, I believe we will hold them to 6 or 7 points and put a 'W' in our win column....
