The Cleveland Browns can win a lot of games if they can continue to get 311 yards and three touchdowns out of quarterback Joe Flacco the rest of the way out. Officially named as the starting quarterback, Flacco has given this passing attack a spark that it has been missing since the season-ending injury to starting quarterback Deshaun Watson.
The Browns could do without his two turnovers that lowered his production just a bit. However, there is no doubt the field is being stretched at a high level with Flacco under center. As the Browns hold the fifth seed in the AFC at this point in the season with four games left, Flacco has a chance to make this season memorable in Northeast Ohio.
Where did his Week 14 performance rank among all of the other 29 starting quarterbacks around the league (the Arizona Cardinals and Washington Commanders were on their bye week)? Here we take a look at ESPN’s QBR and rank every quarterback by their Week 14 showing.
