NFL Fans React Angrily to Joe Flacco, the quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, Winning Comeback Player of the Year in 2023.
During the NFL Honors ceremony on Thursday night, Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco won the award for the NFL Comeback Player of the Year. The 38-year old was not endorsed by any group in the wake of turning into a free specialist toward the finish of the 2022 season. Regardless of numerous groups requiring quarterbacks all through the 2023 season, Flacco didn’t get a call until some other time in the year.
By taking a chance on Flacco, the Browns were immediately rewarded when they signed him. In five games, Flacco drove Cleveland to a 4-1 record to finish off the year and assisted them with securing a spot in the AFC End of the season games. He finished 60.3% of his passes for 1,616 yards, 13 scores, and eight capture attempts.
It may come as no surprise that Flacco was not the overwhelming favorite to win the prize, nor did he even receive the most votes for first place. That honor went to safety Damar Hamlin of the Buffalo Bills, who famously collapsed during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals last season and was without a heartbeat for several minutes on the field.
Hamlin got back to the field this season, however was many times a solid scratch from Bills games. Despite this, he was able to play 111 defensive snaps, which is impressive for someone who was practically dead for a few minutes last year.
So unimaginable was Hamlin’s excursion that numerous NFL fans accept he ought to have won the honor all things being equal.
While Flacco had some good times story, going from the lounge chair and playing with his children to conveying the Browns to the end of the season games, Hamlin’s story is ostensibly seriously motivating and more meriting for the distinction of Rebound Player of the Year.
In any event, that is what fans from various fanbases were talking about via web-based entertainment when the declaration was made:
While nobody needs to remove how exceptional Flacco’s run was, it is difficult to contend that it is more deserving of the honor than a man in a real sense resurrecting.
