The Cleveland Browns have reached a breaking point.
Losing Deshaun Watson for the season, and at that time in the season, forced them to hunt for a solution at the position everywhere.
That’s when Joe Flacco came in to save their season, and signing him was the finest thing they could’ve done in retrospect.
Since taking over the team in Week 12, Flacco has been one of the top quarterbacks in the league, prompting NFL legend J.J. Watt to take to Twitter to question all teams that were not interested in Flacco when he reached out to them.
Flacco didn’t look good with the Denver Broncos or the New York Jets, and he wasn’t exactly young, so it’s easy to see why few people thought of him as a potential starter.
However, as time passes, there are more and more QB injuries, and history has shown that having a proven veteran in the locker room may always come in handy.
Flacco was one of the most seasoned quarterbacks available, and he could’ve provided the Jets with the veteran presence they needed after losing Aaron Rodgers, but they chose Zach Wilson instead.

The Jets will now watch the playoffs from home, while the Browns will play at least one postseason game.
That’s why you should never underestimate a champion’s heart, and kudos to the Browns for taking a chance on an old opponent.
