Will this ‘fatal flaw’ derail the Browns playoff dreams?

The Cleveland Browns are riding high on “Flacco Fever” as they prepare for the NFL Playoffs as the No. 5 seed in the AFC.

By now most fans are familiar with the exploits of quarterback Joe Flacco:

  • Signed to the practice squad in November after starting quarterback Deshaun Watson was lost for the season with a shoulder injury.
  • Inserted into the starting lineup in Week 13 with quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson in the concussion protocol.
  • First quarterback in NFL history to have 250 passing yards and two or more passing touchdowns in each of their first five games with a franchise
  • Author of four consecutive wins to help the Browns clinch a playoff spot.
