The Cleveland Browns are getting set to take on the Minnesota Vikings Sunday morning in London. The Browns are looking to avoid a 1-4 start after a lopsided loss to the Detroit Lions, and have made a quarterback change after the slow start.

Rookie third-round pick Dillon Gabriel will make his first start in a Browns uniform in Week 5. And while many fans are already stressing about the start to the season and what Gabriel will look like against a very good Vikings defense, Kevin Stefanski seemed to look to relieve some of that tension with some humor.

“You have some guys that have been in college for six seasons like Dillon...he's like Tom Callahan's son," Stefanski said on 92.3 The Fan.

Stefanski is referencing Chris Farley's character, Tom Callahan III, who is the heir to his father's auto parts company. In the film, Farley's character spends seven years in college.

The Browns will be fighting an uphill battle against a Vikings team that ranks first in EPA per play.
