The Cleveland Browns surprised everyone and qualified for the postseason with still a game to go. They won their week 17 game against the New York Jets and clinched a Wild Card spot. The Browns did all that with quarterback uncertainty since the start of the season. They started the season with Deshaun Watson at center, and got into the postseason with former Super Bowl champion, Joe Flacco.

Flacco signed with the Browns’ practice squad in late November after Watson was ruled out for the season due to an injury. He became the team’s starting quarterback in week 13 after Dorian Thompson-Robinson was ruled out due to concussion. Since becoming the team’s starter, Flacco has been brilliant as he led the Browns to a 4-1 record.

After leading the Browns to their 11th win against the Jets on Sunday, Flacco received a lot of love from his former teammates and other Jets players. He had a very interesting conversation with the Jets’ CB Justin Hardee. The defenseman grew up in Cleveland and told Flacco. He said:

I will.

Flacco told NBC Sports’ Peter King after the team’s 37-20 win:

I mean, this position is reliant on everybody," I think the fact that this is, like, the ultimate team sport has kind of gotten away from us to a certain extent. Everybody wants everything to come down to one guy or two guys. That’s why winning a game at this level is so special.

Flacco has already won a Super Bowl with the Baltimore Ravens back in 2012. So far this season with the Browns, he has thrown for 1,616 yards, 13 touchdowns and 8 interceptions. He has a rating of 90.2 while completing 60.3 percent of his passes.
