It’s time to grade the Ravens performance against the Browns. We begin with the quarterback:

Joe Flacco had a strong performance against the Browns. He was sharp and efficient and it looked like he knocked some of the rust off. Flacco didn’t exactly shine in the season opener. Flacco started out with a confidence building pass to Jeremy Maclin. It was an early indication that things were going to go well. Flacco went 25-34 for 217 yards and two touchdowns. This was an efficient performance. Flacco played well with the exception of an ugly interception. That interception was not completely Flacco’s fault. Mike Wallace was on a different page and they couldn’t connect. Flacco looked more comfortable. It was hard to expect much in this game. A rusty Flacco seemed to be the safest prediction before the game. Instead, the Ravens saw Flacco start to find his groove.. QB. Baltimore Ravens. JOE FLACCO. B+
