The Week 5 Sunday slate kicks off early with another international game, this time in London, as the Minnesota Vikings take on the Cleveland Browns<\/a>. Both teams are coming off tough losses in Week 4 and looking to get back into the win column.<\/p>\n

Pressure has continued mounting for Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski to make a quarterback change, and that shift finally happened Wednesday, when it was announced that rookie Dillon Gabriel would make his first NFL start<\/a> in London, with veteran Joe Flacco headed to the bench.<\/p>\n

Flacco and the offense had underperformed through four games, averaging just 14 points per game, which is second worst in the NFL to Tennessee, which averages 12.8. With the offense struggling with Flacco at the helm, it was only a matter of time before Stefanski would have to give either Gabriel or fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders an opportunity. Sanders will remain at QB3 on the depth chart.<\/p>\n

While the offense has been in shambles, the defense is currently ranked No. 1 in total yards allowed at 222.5, more than 20 yards better than Atlanta at No. 2. Despite giving up some points to Detroit and Baltimore, Cleveland’s defense possesses one of the more stout fronts in the league with 2023 DPOY Myles Garrett leading the charge and will look to exert its will on Minnesota’s offense in Week 5.<\/p>\n

Minnesota is playing its second and final international game of the season after falling to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Dublin, Ireland, last Sunday<\/a>. Wentz will fill in for J.J. McCarthy for a third straight week, with the team having split his first two starts. Wentz passed for 350 yards against the Steelers but was sacked six times and threw two interceptions in the 24-21 loss.<\/p>\n

The Vikings will be looking for more out of the running game after rushing for 70 yards last week with Jordan Mason leading the pack, filling in at RB1 with Aaron Jones on injured reserve. Penalties were also an issue for Minnesota against Pittsburgh, as it drew eight yellow flags.<\/p>\n
