IND QB Joe Flacco - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Indianapolis Colts

So far, the switch to Joe Flacco hasn't worked out well for the Colts. That said, it was one game and against a strong Minnesota defense. But the Colts do need to start winning to justify the switch, since it was made purely on the Colts' chances of winning with Flacco versus Anthony Richardson and making a playoff push. Sunday is an important game for the 4-5 Colts. It's not an easy matchup for Flacco and the offense but not necessarily a very tough one either as Buffalo ranks in the middle of the pack against the pass. This could be a game, too, where the Colts try to make Jonathan Taylor a focal point of the gameplan. Flacco may be best-served on the bench this week as a low-end QB2.

IND QB Joe Flacco - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Minnesota Vikings

Between the offensive struggles and taking himself out of the game in a key situation, the Colts benched Anthony Richardson and are going with Joe Flacco to help make a playoff push. The passing offense was noticeably different with Flacco under center, which will certainly help the fantasy stock of himself and the wide receivers. That said, Minnesota remains one of the toughest defenses in the NFL this season, so it's not a must-start for Flacco. He does make for a solid QB2 and an intriguing streaming option this week.

IND QB Joe Flacco - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Jacksonville Jaguars

Joe Flacco is back. The former Raven/Jet/Brown is now set to make his first start for the Colts with Anthony Richardson doubtful with an oblique injury. Flacco threw two touchdown passes after coming in for Richardson last week against the Steelers. We saw how successful Flacco was in five starts for the Browns last season, throwing 13 touchdown passes. He gets the Jaguars this week and is worth a look as a QB2 or a streaming option in Shane Steichen's offense.

CLE QB Joe Flacco - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. New York Jets

Joe Flacco is actually out here winning fantasy playoff matchups and may even be a league winner. He has been on a hot streak. Flacco is already up to ten touchdown passes in just four games. However, he does face the stiff Jets defense on Thursday. Flacco also could throw another interception or two. He has at least one in all four games with Cleveland, including five in the last two games. The Jets have playmakers across the defense that can get to Flacco. He’s still an interesting streaming option but understandable if you feel you have better options for your championship round.

CLE QB Joe Flacco - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Houston Texans

Joe Flacco is out here winning fantasy playoff matchups. Incredible. Back-to-back 300-yard passing games with multiple touchdowns in all three of his starts thus far. Of course, we do have to note the three interceptions last week against the Bears, but Flacco still led a rally before the Browns survived the Bears' Hail Mary attempt at the end of the game. Flacco is now a very interesting streaming option against the Texans. He's not quite a QB1 but he's inching closer to it.

CLE QB Joe Flacco - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Chicago Bears

Joe Flacco is a fantasy option in the year 2023. What a world we live in. Flacco has thrown five touchdown passes in his two starts so far for the Browns and has already built a strong connection with Amari Cooper. The Bears have been getting better on defense but Flacco is still an interesting QB2 option for Week 15. Who would have thought at the beginning of the season that Joe Flacco would be leading the charge in Cleveland and likely leading them into the playoffs?

DEN QB Joe Flacco - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Indianapolis Colts
In the embarrassing home loss to the Chiefs last Thursday, Joe Flacco was sacked a career-high eight times. The Kansas City defense stuffed the line, forcing the Denver QB to beat them, and it worked. Flacco threw for just 213 yards, with no TDs – the third time this season he’s failed to toss for a score. In the past three weeks, he’s averaging only 191 yards through the air and is now without Emmanuel Sanders. The Broncos will be at Indy on Sunday against the No. 20 pass defense, so Flacco remains a low QB2 option.
