He had New England beat in 2012, only to see his elite clutch play ruined by Evans and Cundiff. Came back the following year, in New England again, and beat them down worse. He achieved something that Peyton and Roethlisberger never could... or any other QB, not named Eli for that matter. Quote

I’m not surprised he’s playing well, the Browns are stacked and Stefanski is a good coach. But if he had been ineffective, I don’t think anyone would have been surprised I didn't mean it as a criticism. I wasn't expecting a whole lot of Flacco either. A lot of us were wrong. 1 Quote

And I predict for all the hype around the Browns and Flacco they are one and done in the playoffs going to Houston or Jacksonville. Yes they beat both those teams in recent weeks but the Jaguars game was in Cleveland amid their current free fall with Laurence being hurt and they barely won. Also they won in Houston against Case Keenam with Stroud out. With Stroud back they'll easily beat the Browns at home if that matchup materializes. Nice call bro 👍 Quote
K D Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Flacco had to play like that today. It's the law of averages. You either believed he was now all of a sudden the best QB in the NFL or he was due a bad game. Same for Stroud. He is either the best rookie QB in NFL history and better than Patrick Mahomes was early on or he is due a bad game. Or maybe he is! Is CJ Stroud destined to be the greatest QB of all time? Quote
Chicken Boo Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Even during the regular season run, he had his fair share of turnovers. Still a good showing for a guy who essentially came off the couch. 1 Quote
boyst Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Ya know... I have a hard time getting back to form on Mondays after a 2 day weekend. My job is behind a desk and nothing like football, I'm 42, he's 56 I can't imagine taking a few years off and coming right back in at 73 years old like he did. No one expected them to get this far and him to have so much fun doing it. I'm glad he could contribute so much for the community being over 85. 1 2 1 Quote

MJS Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Flacco finally played like Flacco. All is right with the world. Quote
CircleTheWagons99 Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Ended just like I thought. Crumbled in the playoffs.... Quote
The Frankish Reich Posted January 14 Posted January 14 It was a fun ride. Flacco has always been kind of a surly disagreeable guy, at least publicly, but he seemed to actually be enjoying this last waltz, at least in a Joe Flacco kind of way. A nice ending. Now know when to walk away for good. 1 Quote

He was better off the couch than a few of the starting Qbs this season! Quote

Still not sure what all these pundits saw in the Browns other than beating up a bunch of bad teams down the stretch. Said all along that they lost to only real team they played during Flacco's stretch (RAMS) and a rematch against the Texans with Stroud back would be a big mismatch for them. Didn't think they'd lose as bad as they did though but wheels came off quickly after the 2nd Flacco pick 6. 1 Quote
