Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco, fresh off an upset win with the Browns, is being eyed by the Bengals to potentially start in Week 5 against the Packers. While Flacco faces a steep learning curve with Cincinnati's offense and unfamiliar receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, he'll aim to leverage their talent. His simplified role will be to get the ball to open playmakers, a task potentially less error-prone than recent backup QB performances.
