As the Cleveland Browns continue to surge with Joe Flacco under center, the quarterback’s success has, unexpectedly, given the club’s new fan favorite a chance to pass another in the record books.
Flacco’s 309-yard outing in the playoff-bound Browns’ Week 17 win over the Jets set the stage for the 38-year-old to usurp Johnny Manziel for 31st on the team’s all-time passing leaderboard.
Flacco needs just 60 passing yards Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals to edge Manziel in just six games compared to the former first-round pick’s 1,675 yards over 14 contests.
