Report: Myles Garrett Makes Big Projection About Joe Flacco Despite recent loss
The Joe Flacco era has seen the Cleveland Browns achieve a 1-1 record. Despite a recent loss to the Los Angeles Rams, the team stands at an impressive 6-1 at home and is well-positioned for a playoff berth, even though they may not host a postseason game.
It’s evident that Joe Flacco is currently the preferred choice at quarterback for the team, particularly highlighted by his performance and attitude. Flacco’s contributions have garnered praise and recognition from teammates, including superstar DE Myles Garrett. Following a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars, Garrett expressed in the media that Flacco is an integral part of the team, emphasizing that this will continue if he maintains his current level of play.

Interestingly, the idea of Joe Flacco playing for the Browns would have been met with disapproval from many Browns fans, considering their history with him during his time with the Baltimore Ravens. However, Flacco has embraced his role with the new team, offering a glimpse of what the season could have been with consistent quarterback play.
While Flacco is aware that he won’t be the team’s starter once Deshaun Watson returns to full strength, he has earned the right to be one of his backups until he decides to retire from the game. Despite his age, Flacco’s positive impact on the team has been undeniable.
