Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco's exceptional performance in the playoff-clinching 37-20 victory over the New York Jets has garnered widespread praise. Flacco set an all-time Browns and NFL record, matching a Tom Brady record. He threw for 309 yards and three touchdowns, leading the Browns to their first playoff berth since 2020. Flacco's success has sparked discussions about his potential as the NFL Comeback Player of the Year. His remarkable run has captivated fans and the media, with many lauding his impact on the team's success.
The Lions are easily the most likable team in the NFL.
It’s gonna be a Lions-Browns Super Bowl, isn’t it?
Can the Browns win in the Postseason? #Browns #NFL #sportsbetting @ChristianDB122 https://t.co/bXeWSjMLhY
One last thing about Joe Flacco's 4-game streak of 300 passing yards & multiple TD passes: Only 6 QBs in #NFL history have had a longer one: 8 Drew Brees 7 Peyton Manning 6 Steve Young 5 Philip Rivers, Andrew Luck, Peyton again & Joe Montana #Browns #Saints #Broncos #49ers #Colts https://t.co/vXDgxMkm2k
Not only is Joe Flacco likely to parlay his Browns success into a nice contract this offseason but he's cashing in with each win this season as well as @Tom_RedRight88 breaks down for us: https://t.co/AeA7N8NkJt
I realize I've been hosting a Flaccofest here, but what he's doing is just so insanely historic. For instance: He's thrown 1,616 yards over the last 5 games. That figures to lead the #NFL -- unless one of these gentlemen behind him really goes off this weekend. #Browns https://t.co/3mJ5coGSFl
Most 300-yard passing games in #NFL history by a 38-year-old QB: 7 Peyton Manning, 2014 #Broncos 7 Tom Brady, 2015 #Patriots 5 Philip Rivers, 2019-20 #Chargers/#Colts 5 Big Ben, 2020 #Steelers 4 (tied) Joe Flacco, 2023 #Browns (The man has only played 5 games -- & has 2 left!) https://t.co/KKHiJZtDa5
Johnny Manziel praised for reaction to Joe Flacco maybe passing his Browns’ yardage https://t.co/YhzA5X6GJm https://t.co/ksBPGa4hou
It's just wild that Joe Flacco is the first #Browns QB to throw for 300 yards in 4 straight games. Then you remind yourself that, since the franchise joined the #NFL in 1950, its all-time leader for passing yards & TD passes is Brian Sipe (23,713 & 154).
Browns have clinched the playoffs, now have a chance to do something they haven't done in 37 years @CoachWilson66 shares https://t.co/D4F6wgeQzX
Joe Flacco sits at the 2nd best odds on @fdsportsbook to win Comeback Player of the Year at +130 (Damar Hamlin is first at -165). Before last night's win, he was at +240. Can he take it home this season? #Browns #NFL #GamblingX https://t.co/qB412cCe8X

If Joe Flacco is indeed Comeback Player of the Year in Associated Press awards voting, (which I voted for through three decades) they need to change the award category to Comeback Player Off the Couch of the Year Award 👍
So happy for Joe Flacco, always a cool, classy, underrated QB. He could prove to be the modern-day Vinny Testaverde, rocket arm, veteran leader who took the New York Jets to the cusp of the Super Bowl in 1998. You go, Joe👍

Joe Flacco’s success with the Browns shows what can happen when the player can find the right system, the right coaches and the right team. A perfect mesh of all three so far.
After Baltimore traded him in 2019, Joe Flacco was 3-14 in 17 starts with the Broncos and Jets. He now already has won four games in Cleveland, more than he won during his combined time in Denver and New York.
INSANE… Deshaun Watson has ZERO games with 300 passing yards with the #Browns in 12 games. Joe Flacco has FOUR 300 PASSING YARD in 5 games 🤯🤯 (h/t @dpbrugler) https://t.co/Mtjphc89wv
It's wild to say in 2023, but Joe Flacco has been absolutely electric since taking over for the Cleveland Browns. The veteran has cashed in some major contract incentives with his performance, too. READ: https://t.co/9K0BBbHsxn https://t.co/4VkCvrhpN8
