Joe Flacco put up what was by far his best performance in Week 4. He was completing short passes and long passes, and he was on the money with all his throws. Every so often Flacco has these types of games where he impresses everyone, and today was one of those games.

It took a little luck to get him going early on however. One minute and 48 seconds into the second quarter, Flacco launched a bomb to

down the field. The pass was completed, but not to

who was the intended receiver. Daniels tipped the ball, and Steve Smith Sr. was in the right place at the right time, getting a 61-yard touchdown on the tip-drill.

Flacco finished the day completing 22-of-31 passes for 327 yards and three touchdowns with a quarterback rating of 97.8 and a passer rating of 137.4.

Grade: A+
