Joe Flacco has the most road playoff wins in NFL history. Browns are probably the best or second best team entering the postseason on the road this year.

[@sabiebright4554]

I'm pretty sure Tom Brady has that honor, but Joe flacco is a great qb.

[@tomshumate3940]

@@sabiebright4554 i googled the same thing, they said Brady had 9 in an article. I didn't remember the 9 and I looked it up... Brady's wins: 01 vs Steelers(actually shouldn't count), 04 vs Steelers, 06 vs chargers, 18 vs chiefs, 20(buccaneers) vs redskins/saints/Packers. That's it. 7 wins. Article said 9. They just don't exist. Flacco: 08 vs dolphins/titans, 09 vs Patriots, 10 vs chiefs, 12 vs broncos/Patriots, 14 vs Steelers. Also 7 wins. So they're tied, both statements are true but I'll never count 01 Steelers as a Brady win personally. And Flacco set the record first, most records are kept like the first guy holds it forever, has to be beat not tied to lose it.

[@sabiebright4554]

@@tomshumate3940 @tomshumate3940 I was counting neutral sights, my mistake. Brady won 6 Superbowls and wasn't at his home stadium for winning those, and I rather inaccurately tried to count wins not at Gillette and Raymond James for Brady. Either way I'm happy to see flacco back in action, and while I still think my ravens will win, he's definitely been awesome to watch.

But we may have to be enemies for a few hours soon. I can say you have done more for the Browns in 5 games than Watson has done in two years.

[@brookeb452]

I just hate that next season he will probably be tossed aside.. with Watsons 230mil salary, and DTR as their backup, not only will the Browns not want to spend the money on a longer contract, it would potentially cause a rift in the locker room. If he continues to play this well, he’s not trying to be somewhere where his only playtime is if Watson got hurt again. Sucks because anyone with eyes can see he is fitting in extremely well with this team.

You are most likely correct about your assessment. Sad cold truth.@@brookeb452

[@Speedyreedy1218]

​@@brookeb452Denver is dumping Wilson. He has a big contract.

[@brookeb452]

@@Speedyreedy1218 Watson’s contract is 230 mil fully guaranteed- skill, injury, and cap- 46 mil each year through 2026- about 64 mil cap hit per season. Wilson is guaranteed 39 mil no matter what for next season. If cut before March, they have 68 mil in dead cap for 2024- they keep him, it’s 85 mil over 2024 and 25. They’d rather suffer more for one season of roster-building than prolong it to two. Denver is hoping another team will take the 22 mil option bonus to cut down from that 68. Both contracts weren’t smart moves by either team- obviously for different reasons between the two, and each team is dealing with it in their own way given what the situation is, who the team already has, and what it needs(that’s not me saying I agree with all of it in any way). But a *big* difference is Stidham has agreed to a 2 yr 10mil deal for Denver.. and Payton is clearly calling the shots there. They already had him locked in before detonating the whole thing with Wilson. If Flacco were to agree to that, things may be different, but there’s no way he would- he’s worth more.

Ive supported Flacco since the very night he was drafted. I argued for him being "Elite" for years when he was with Ravens. This guy had to earn every $ he got and he is arguably the 2nd best post season qb ever. If he had better talent around him and didnt have to go thru learning 5 different offenses after all our coordinators kept leaving, then he would have surely put up better stats and had a better record. The drafting and decision making the last few years of Flaccos time with the Ravens was not great.

Lifetime ravens fan here. And seeing this run Flacco is having is honestly so great to see. Great teammate, great guy, and even better quarterback. And in the playoffs idk if anyone is better. I said it when he wanted a big contract from the ravens and I’ll say it again now. Pay him what he wants, give him a good line, a good running back and decent wide receivers and he will win you a Super Bowl. Hoping the ravens win the Super Bowl but would not be sad in the slightest if he beats the ravens and wins another Super Bowl. Congrats Flacco.

What a story. I’m a niner fan and have to put the 2012 season aside and root for this guy if my team fails

[@clevelandcbi]

I 100% understand. As a Browns fan, Elway broke my heart as a kid, but I'll be damned if I wasn't rooting him on when he finally got his ring. I was yelling like it was my team lol.

[@Yo_AB_Breaks]

I don't see your team failing to get to the SB man. I sure hope it's Joe and them boys looking across the field at yall when it happens.

[@cabracove]

@@Yo_AB_Breaks I don't see that happening either, but if we're gonna lose, that's who I'd rather lose to.

[@Yo_AB_Breaks]

@@cabracove It has been a crazy season man. Stranger things have happened. Fun to speculate at least!

[@Ltjrevival]

Same

[@gsxtrex]

Lifelong ravens fan, we loved this personality for years. Dude is never phased. He loves his TE. Him and Dennis Pitta were awesome together.. don't go too far joe ..

[@alexcika9906]

What a humble Classy dude

[@MrCtts33]

You know Kap is so pissed right now! haha

[@micha3L6969]

Nah he’s rich and sulking in Victimhood…he secretly loves it

[@kdevinturner8778]

Kap should re-branded to Kip. Most people know what that means. Nothing to do with me. Wish him/her /it the best.

flacco showing his kids joe flacco highlights on youtube is hilarious

[@tompoore2081]

Joe Flacco was a long time starting QB and a Super Bowl MVP. Yet he was willing to take a backup gig in Cleveland. He could’ve treated it as beneath him, but he didn’t. Now he’s guided the Browns-a team he tormented when he played for the Ravens-into the playoffs. We Browns fans thank you, sir.

[@jens5280]

Glad to finally get a full interview with him on the show after he set the record for the shortest interview of all time on the show a ways back

[@kdevinturner8778]

A smart man who understands. Wish Joe Flacco the best. He is living every little and big kid's sports dream. Great perspective he has. Very happy for him.

[@eazy.peezy1834]

I can’t wait to see this man bring the Browns a f’n chip. Written off QB with the written off franchise. This is some great writing by the NFL.

[@trueempire8948]

Not a Browns fan or a Ravens fan but I wanna see the Browns vs Ravens in the playoffs. Joe vs his old team vs the QB that took his job Lamar Jackson. Talk about a epic matchup and if Joe and the Browns eliminate the Ravens that would be the ultimate payback for Joe lol

[@codytinabannister1336]

Lol I was just saying the samething.

[@brandondetroitfanmichaels4325]

​@@codytinabannister1336now that's a perfect script! The same with Matthew Stafford, versus Detroit in the playoffs!

[@gailbencina3587]

Not just for Joe but for all Browns fans! We will never forget the day Art Modell took our beloved team away like a thief in the middle of the night ! It would be the ultimate karma!

[@bouji_]

I can hardly wait until Joe Flacco wins the Super Bowl this year. It's going to be a great story. One for the ages.

[@rogerdecker34]

I love it when Pat ask someone a question he's excited about that He has to talk for like 30 seconds and then reask it instead of just asking it and shutting up. I'm sure it's not the best way of doing interviews but he is being himself and he is being a fan and I like it!

[@matth844]

If Joe Flacco somehow even takes the browns to the afc championship game. Joe burrow shall forever be stripped of the name Joe cool or January Joe. Because they originated with this man right here. You gotta love to see a great player get an actual chance and experience the kinda joy he is having

[@paulkim1011]

What a humble super bowl champ

[@AK-fj8yo]

Joe Flacco's Madden cadence & audibles were always my favorite 😄

[@86BMB]

Loved Flacco as a lifetime ravens fan. Hated seeing him in a jets uniform, hate even more seeing him in a browns uniform. But I'm glad he is on a run. If the ravens are out I'm all in for Joe.
