Dillon Gabriel's passer rating in his NFL debut came out to a decidedly mediocre 72.2 but sometimes stats and grades don't tell the entire story.
Saturday in Philadelphia the Cleveland Browns rookie completed 13-18 passes for 143 yards with no touchdowns. The official stat sheet credited him with one interception, returned for a touchdown, and a fumble on a botched handoff at his own 31 that led to Philadelphia's second touchdown. He was sacked twice and threw two passes away, both smart decisions.
The stat sheet credits (blames) Gabriel for both errors, but there were extenuating circumstances in each.
