Joe Flacco's Dusty Corvette Storyline Dominates Netflix Doc

The third season of Netflix's "Quarterback," titled "Face of the Franchise," dedicates significant screen time to Joe Flacco, featuring him for 14 minutes, more than fellow quarterbacks Jayden Daniels, Cam Ward, and Baker Mayfield. The episode opens with a brief segment on Cam Ward before focusing on the challenges facing all four quarterbacks in the 2025 season.

Flacco's storyline begins with a look at his dusty Super Bowl XLVII MVP Corvette, which he admits has not been driven in years and is inoperable. He shares personal anecdotes about meeting his wife, Dana, in high school and their journey to having five children. The documentary revisits his Super Bowl XLVII victory and the tarnished state of his MVP trophy, reflecting on what truly matters to him now: his family.

The narrative traces Flacco's career, including his departure from the Ravens after 11 years and subsequent trades. It highlights his 2023 playoff appearance with the Browns and his NFL Comeback Player of the Year award. The episode also touches on a memorable Week 2 game in 2013 against the Browns, where his son Daniel was born the same morning, showcasing the intersection of his personal and professional life.

Further segments explore Flacco's fantasy football participation and a recent loss to the Ravens, where his son humorously commented on benching him. The episode also briefly covers Cam Ward and his former coach Brian Callahan's challenges with the Titans, including a crucial play call that led to a turnover and a loss.
