Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco is the story of the NFL right now, as he went from couch to gridiron in leading the Browns to the playoffs. Flacco has played in five games this year since signing with Cleveland as a free agent, registering a 4-1 record and stabilizing the quarterback position for the team.
Flacco replaced Deshaun Watson, who was supposed to be the center of the Browns offense but was lost to a season-ending shoulder injury.
In light of Flacco’s career renaissance, it’s interesting to compare his recent performances to those of Watson. As it turns out, Flacco has been the better performer since the start of last season.
