Bengals, Joe Flacco

Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett wasn't shy about speaking his mind surrounding Joe Flacco's big day against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Less than two weeks after arriving in a trade from the Cleveland Browns, quarterback Joe Flacco was a central figure in the Cincinnati Bengals' 33-31 upset win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night.
Flacco shared what its like playing for the Bengals after years of competing against them during a post-game press conference Oct. 16.
In 25 regular-season and postseason starts against the Steelers, Flacco now has 12 total wins. That ties him with Tom Brady for the most ever by a quarterback against Pittsburgh. The asterisk is that last year’s off-the-bench win with the Colts gives Flacco a 13th.
Cleveland radio host Tony Rizzo crashed out on Friday. Following Joe Flacco’s stellar performance in his second start with the Bengals against Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers in what many deemed as the Unc Bowl on Thursday, Rizzo simply couldn’t take it anymore, wondering why the Browns GM Andrew Berry would trade the 40-year-old quarterback.
The Browns' decision to trade Joe Flacco within the division was a questionable one, and after his success in Week 7, they may be regretting it.
