Joe Flacco and Aaron Rodgers squared off for the fourth time on Thursday. Flacco was just grateful that he finally managed to come out on top this time. Having first faced each other back in 2009, it’s been a long time coming. Both with new teams Flacco now has the latest laugh—but not quite the last.
“It was a lot of fun to go against Aaron today and the Steelers again”, Flacco told Scott Van Pelt after the Bengals’ 33-31 win. “I’ve played them so much. They’re such a familiar foe. I told Aaron after the game, I don’t think I’ve ever beat him head-to-head.
