All five Joe Flacco TD passes in the first 16 minutes of the game
By Mike Dyce
Last year we saw Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles each throw seven touchdowns in a game, tying the NFL Record.
Y.A. Tittle, Joe Kapp, Sid Luckman, George Blanda and Adrian Burk all are also tied for the record.
It looks that record could fall on Sunday, as the Baltimore Ravens take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Roughly a minute into the second quarter, the Ravens were leading the Bucs 35-0 thanks to five touchdown passes from quarterback Joe Flacco.
Five touchdowns in the first 16 minutes of the game.
That was also five touchdowns out of Flacco’s first 10 completions. That’s right, half of Flacco’s first 10 completions in the game were touchdown passes. The first two were caught by Torrey Smith, but we have all five of them here for you.
