The Cleveland Browns have endured a plethora of injuries throughout the 2023 NFL season, but they somehow find ways to keep winning games.
The Browns have managed to keep pace in the AFC North and they picked up another close victory in Week 15 against the Chicago Bears.
It was a defensive-minded first half as both teams went scoreless in the first quarter before scoring their first touchdowns in the second quarter.
However, Chicago looked well on their way to victory as they scored 10 points in the third quarter to take a 17-7 lead.
Joe Flacco has been a revelation since being elevated from the practice squad and he produced more magic in the fourth quarter as he led the offense to 13 unanswered points for the crucial win.
Flacco has looked like his old self on the field and his recent performance against Chicago had fans buzzing via NFL.
“Joe Flacco, are you kidding me?!”

Joe Flacco doing what he does best

On the afternoon, Flacco threw for 374 yards and two touchdowns, though he did get picked off three times.
However, in the clip that fans were excited about, Flacco managed to hit Amari Cooper downfield and the throw was perfect as he placed the ball in the middle of two defenders.
Head coach Kevin Stefanski has had to cycle through multiple quarterbacks during the season, but he might’ve lucked into the veteran Flacco who looks rejuvenated playing again.
If the Browns are able to make the postseason, it’ll be one of the best stories in the league this season.
Flacco isn’t the long-term answer at quarterback in Cleveland, but he’s exactly what they need right now.
