10-4, Good Buddy

Flacco has piled up wins in the postseason

We must give Joe Flacco some credit. Not a great quarterback. Not a guy anybody would ever even mention as a candidate when drawing up a list of the top 20 quarterbacks of all time.

But the guy wins big games.

He’s 10-4 in the postseason, and that’s not easy to do, even if you have a good defense and some timely plays by other guys helping out along the way.

Among quarterbacks with double-digit wins in the playoffs, only Terry Bradshaw and Troy Aikman (who also both got a lot of help from others) have a higher winning percentage.

I don’t think I missed any, but here are the win-loss records for the 29 quarterbacks I believe have started at least 10 playoff games. I’ve got active quarterbacks in bold.
