Rather than using it to drink away his pain like normal Benny Snell Jr. Jersey , a Browns fan threw his beer on a Titans player Sunday.According to Jim Wyatt of the team’s official website, when cornerback Logan Ryan joined the celebration after Malcolm Butler‘s interception return for a touchdown, one fan wearing a Baker Mayfield jersey threw his beer in Ryan’s face.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">This @budlight’s for you?@RealLoganRyan and the @Titans got doused by beer by a @Browns fan after the Malcolm Butler pick-6. 🍺 pic.twitter.com/mQ4QAO8ztM— Jim Wyatt (@jwyattsports) September 9, 2019</blockquote>Ryan didn’t react at the time, but said during an interview with SiriusXM NFL Radio that the move was clearly uncalled for.“Yeah, you know, in this day and age it’s ridiculous,�? Ryan said. “I understand that we play football. I understand that we’re modern day gladiators. I understand that fans feel like they can yell and say and degrade, whatever, but you know, we’re human beings. And I think in society nowadays that’s, with everything going on and everybody deserving their rights Zach Gentry Jersey , I think as a player to hop up over the rail and to have beer splashed in your face and you’re not allowed to respond. . . .“Fans are allowed to throw beer in our face and yell whatever they want to yell at us and there’s no penalty?”Of course, there is a financial penalty for being a clod, since stadium beers are really expensive, and it was early enough in that game that the dude definitely needed another one.And as Mark Ingram learned in Buffalo a few years ago, being able to drink in a sweet victory is always more enjoyable. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — John Elway insists Joe Flacco is at the top of his game at age 34 even though the former Baltimore Ravens quarterback hasn’t thrown a pass in the playoffs since 2015.“Joe is a perfect fit for us,” Elway said at Flacco’s introductory news conference Friday. “He’s played in a lot of big games, he has a lot of good football left in him. At 34, (I) feel like he’s just really coming into his prime.”That echoed comments Elway made Wednesday when he told the NFL Network that Flacco’s “arm strength is still great” and “he’s just going into his prime,” even though the veteran QB was supplanted by rookie Lamar Jackson last season and didn’t play in the Ravens’ wild-card loss to the Chargers.Elway, who sent a fourth-round pick to Baltimore for Flacco in a deal worked out five weeks ago, trusts he’s finally found a worthy successor to Peyton Manning — another Super Bowl winner who came to Denver for the second chapter of his storied career.Flacco said he’d love to reach out to Manning as he tries to follow his lead in Denver.“I am new to this. It’s completely different and obviously I’m going to find my way through it mostly on my own Nick Bosa Jersey ,” Flacco said. “But … it would probably be a huge benefit to talk to somebody like him, who has not only gone through it but has been successful.”It also appears Elway is trying hard to sell his latest quarterback acquisition to an antsy and skeptical fan base that has suffered through Mark Sanchez’s flop, Trevor Siemian’s fall, Brock Osweiler’s flounder, Paxton Lynch’s fiasco, Case Keenum’s failure and Chad Kelly’s flameout in the three years since Manning retired.No matter the motivation, Flacco appreciates Elway’s endorsement .“I definitely feel that way,” Flacco said of being in his prime. “So, it feels good to hear somebody say that. I mean, shoot, with Tom Brady now quarterbacks are playing until they’re about 60 years old.”Flacco, who’s 7½ years younger than Brady L.J. Collier Jersey , said he’s healthy and hardy and can’t wait to get going.“I’m as healthy as I can be, as a physical and ready to go as ever,” Flacco said. “So, I’m excited about what lies ahead for me and my future. I’m not putting a number on how much I’ve got left to play. I’m going to play as long as I can and hopefully they’re dragging me out of this building a long time from now.”Flacco, whose last playoff appearance was a 35-31 loss at New England on Jan. 10, 2015, has three years and $63 million left on his contract with a 2019 salary of $18.5 million.Flacco missed just six games in his first decade in the NFL and was Baltimore’s starter last season until he injured his right hip in a loss at Pittsburgh on Nov. 4. Jackson took over and went 6-1 to get the Ravens into the playoffs for the first time since the 2014 season.“If I have to reflect back on that time in Baltimore, it was not very fun. It was miserable sitting there on the bench and not being able to contribute, not really feeling like you’re a part of the team,” Flacco said. “But if that’s what it takes to be in this situation right now and be as excited about it as I am and my family is, then that’s what it takes.”The Ravens went 106-72 with Flacco as a starter, including the postseason Marquise Blair Jersey , where his 10 playoff victories since 2008 rank second behind Brady among active quarterbacks. Nobody has more road playoff wins than Flacco’s seven.“As we recall, there was one four or five years ago that was pretty painful here in Denver,” Elway said of Baltimore’s 38-35 win in double-overtime over the AFC’s top seed on Jan. 12, 2013, “and hopefully we’ll have a lot more of those miracles on our side this time rather than against us.”Flacco heaved a 70-yard touchdown pass to Jacoby Jones in the final minute of regulation when safety Rahim Moore mistimed his jump while going for the interception instead of the tackle. That play represents the Broncos’ Bill Buckner moment and it propelled the Ravens to their second Super Bowl title a month later.Flacco said he’s still driven by his love for the game, not by his disappointing end in Baltimore.“I’m really not trying to think too much about my past and why I’m here,” he said. “I’m really just trying to be excited for the fact that I am here and the offense that we’re getting ready to run and the team we’re getting ready to build.”Notes: The Broncos re-signed TE Jeff Heuerman to a two-year deal worth about $9 million.
