Though Joe Flacco performed terribly in the first three quarters of this game, he did do one thing better than last week’s sluggish performance. He could not seem to find a rhythm in the first half, but fortunately, he did not turn the ball over either. Last week, he threw three interceptions which ended up making the difference in the Ravens’ loss to Houston.

However, when Flacco found his rhythm in the second half on Sunday, he excelled. He completed 22-of-36 passes attempted, totaling 312 yards and two touchdowns. Both of his touchdown passes came in the fourth quarter.

With this game being the season finale, Flacco has finished the year throwing for a career-high 3,986 yards and 27 touchdowns.
