Joe Flacco’s strong performance is just more salt on the wound

While the Clevland Browns quarterback woes continue with Deshaun Watson, Joe Flacco is doing a fine job in Indianapolis.

Flacco started the season as the Colts’ backup quarterback behind the second-year gunslinger Anthony Richardson. After suffering a season-ending surgery last season, he finds himself again on the sideline while Joe Flacco lights it up for his team.

Flacco had a tremendous performance yesterday, completing 33 of his 44 passes with 359 yards and three passing touchdowns. Unfortunately, The Colts did not win, but that had little to do with how Joe Flacco performed. The former Browns quarterback has said that he was not offered a contract by Cleveland to return after his exciting stint in 2023.

While many Browns fans were pushing to resign the veteran, it was clear that Deshaun Watson would be the Browns starting quarterback once he returned from his injury. Despite being happy for the former Cleveland Brown, it’s difficult to watch our recent quarterbacks flourish while the Browns try to solve the issues theirs has.
