Joe Flacco’s improbable NFL resurrection with the Cleveland Browns has been the talk of the NFL.
After the Browns’ latest throttling of the Houston Texans 36-22, it has many fans dreaming of a Nick Foles-esque Super Bowl run for the Browns.
Browns legend Joe Thomas agrees with that sediment and believes that this team can defy the odds.
“I think any team that has not won a Super Bowl and historically has not been so good, I think they have to qualify as a Cinderella,” Thomas said.

Browns fans will certainly hope that Flacco has the same magic that Nick Foles had when he led the Philadelphia Eagles to an improbable Super Bowl title after Carson Wentz’s season-ending injury.
First and foremost, the Browns will be trying to win their final 2 games of the season when they battle the Jets on Thursday night and then a road finale against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Browns could finish with a 12-5 record and shot at the division title.
However, the Browns would need some help from the Ravens to lose their final games.
That is surely asking a lot for the Browns, but tis the season for the Browns as their 38-year-old quarterback continues to remind fans of his younger Super Bowl MVP days.
