After his great game against the Jaguars, Joe Flacco will take over at quarterback for the rest of the season for the Browns.

Kevin Stefanski took a big choice with one word that will have an effect on the rest of the year for the Browns.

The Browns’ coach was asked soon after his team’s 31–27 win over the Jaguars if Joe Flacco would be their starting quarterback over the rest of the season.

Now another crazy story will continue. This season has proved full of them. Flacco threw three touchdowns in Sunday’s win, which was his 100th straight regular season win. He was signed to the Ravens just 20 days ago.

Also, Flacco threw for more than 300 yards in a game to the first time since Week 2 of the 2022 season, when he led the Jets to a surprise win over the Browns.

In his second start for the Browns, Flacco played better than Trevor Lawrence, who was hurt and had three picks to Flacco’s three touchdowns.

David Njoku scored two touchdowns early in the game, giving the Browns a 14-0 lead. David Bell caught a touchdown pass from him for 41 yards on a fourth-down play within the fourth quarter. It was the winning score.

The Browns beat the Jaguars 31–27 on Sunday thanks to 311 yards, three scores, and an interception from 38-year-old Joe Flacco. Head coach Kevin Stefanski named Flacco the starting quarterback of the first team.

After such an important game, Stefanski gave the clear answer when asked if Flacco would be at the top of the depth chart over the rest of the season: “Yes.”

Flacco “played well,” Stefanski said about him. “Things like that. You expect him to get better as he gets used to our system and our players.”

But we as a species just talked about how he and all of our guys should do their jobs and give us their best, which I thought he did.

It was Flacco The first play of Sunday’s game was a 75-yard scoring drive that was capped by a 34-yard touchdown throw to an open David Njoku.

After three punts, Cleveland’s defense put together a shutout in the first quarter, which gave the Browns the chance to go up by two scores in their first drive of the second period, which ended with another pass from Flacco to Njoku of 30 yards or more.

For the Browns, that was the story of the game. They often came alive within spurts under Flacco and prevailed to hold on against a late Jags push to win.

“That was a bad game,” Flacco told Evan Washburn of CBS. “Both sides did wrong. I didn’t play my best game, but I think that’s how this team likes it.

When things like that happen, they really act well. Since I’ve been in this place for a few weeks, I’ve been watching them on TV for over a few days, and that’s pretty much what I’ve seen. “Hey, we’ll get them any way we can.”

Even though two of Flacco’s touchdowns went to Njoku and one to David Bell at the fourth quarter, it was clear from the start that he was getting along great with Amari Cooper.

Browns’ new QB1 threw the ball to the team’s WR1 14 times, which is six more times than any other receiver. The two caught seven passes for 77 yards.

The Browns are now 8-5 after the dust settled. Flacco was the fourth Cleveland quarterback this season to get a win. The Browns’ attack had 389 yards, which was the most since Week 2.

It all looks good for Cleveland, who is now the No. 5 seed in the AFC and has a full-game lead over several teams shortly after the Steelers, Colts, as well as Texans all lost.

There have been three weeks in which Joe Flacco has worn an NFL jersey again after being on the bench. He has been promoted from the practice group three times and then sent back back to the work squad once.

More importantly for the Browns’ prospects this year, the smart pro has been a quarterback for 16 years and won Super Bowl MVP. He wants to lead Cleveland into the playoffs as well as beyond.

Following the win, he said, “So many times I felt like a 10-year-old kid again.” “And you shouldn’t lose sight of the privilege it is to play this game.”
