"It's interesting," he said. "I think over the last, it's always one of those things that I think as a football player you just want to play, but I think you've got to give a lot of credit to obviously, Tom, for anybody even thinking about doing it. Obviously, there were guys before, you have Warren Moon, and I talked about it a couple of weeks ago. Vinny Testaverde and other guys that have done it, but I mean (Brady) pushed the boundaries like he did in absolutely everything.
"No surprise that he did it in that way, as well," he said. "But I don't think it's necessarily something that I actively think about until people kind of remind me with texts and things like that and you guys ask me about it. I don't think it's a huge deal right now, but I'm sure when I look back on it, it'll be pretty cool."
Flacco had a magical run with the Browns in the 2023 season, leading the Browns to a 4-1 record and the playoffs, throwing 13 touchdowns and for 1,616 yards in five games. Flacco was asked what it would take to recreate that type of offense, where he threw for 300 yards in five games.
"I think that's all about going out there and winning football games," he said. "I think that's the one detriment of having to split up reps so much during training camp is you'd like to gain that rapport with guys, not just to show them, not just to get better on the field with guys, but also show them, 'Hey man, I'm the guy, let's go have some fun'. Hopefully, over the next few weeks, we can make that happen. It's all about winning in this league. If you can look at that, then it'll feel pretty special."
Flacco said he felt that the 2023 team had a strong roster and does not feel the 2025 team is that far off.
"I think if you look back to this roster, they've had a pretty connected team, I think specifically that year that I can attest to it," he said. "They had an awesome guys up front, good running back room, good receiver room, really good defense to win in this league, you need to have a team and a coaching staff that's ready to go.
