In a surprising turn of events, veteran quarterback Joe Flacco took the first reps in practice for the Cleveland Browns on Wednesday, raising speculation that he could potentially start against the Los Angeles Rams. This news comes as the Browns provide an update on Myles Garrett's injury status and continue their quest for a spot in the playoffs.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski revealed on Monday that Garrett had avoided serious injury and was considered day-to-day. Browns fans, however, are wary of the organization's handling of injuries, citing the way Deshaun Watson's shoulder injury was managed earlier this season. Despite this concern, the Browns remain hopeful that Garrett will make a speedy recovery and return to the field soon.

With the possibility of Joe Flacco being named the starting quarterback for the upcoming game, the Browns face an intriguing question: are they at a point where how they play decides games more than the opponent? If Cleveland's defense remains strong and the offense can limit turnovers, it seems that the Browns' success may not heavily rely on their opponents' performance.

As the season progresses, the Browns find themselves in a pivotal position. Quincy Carrier, in his analysis on a Youtube video, examines the path Cleveland will face if they make it to the postseason. With just a few weeks left in the regular season, every game becomes crucial for the Browns' playoff aspirations.

The Browns will closely monitor Flacco's performance in practice and evaluate his readiness to take on the Rams. Should Flacco get the nod as starting quarterback, it will be interesting to see how he fares against a formidable Los Angeles defense.

The Cleveland Browns organization remains focused on their goal of making it to the playoffs. Despite the uncertainty surrounding injuries and starting quarterback decisions, the team understands that their destiny lies in their own hands. The Browns will rely on the strength of their defense and the discipline of their offense as they aim to secure a postseason berth.

It remains to be seen whether the Browns' approach of focusing on their own performance rather than their opponents' will be enough to propel them to success. As the battle for the playoffs intensifies, all eyes will be on Cleveland to see how they rise to the challenge and seize control of their destiny on the field.
