Joe Flacco completed 21 of 29 passes for 166 yards, two touchdowns an no turnovers in Week 2 at home against the Steelers. He also attempted two quarterback sneaks at the goal line, but failed to cross the plane.
Joe Flacco scores twice for fantasy owners in Week 2
It wasn’t a dominating Flacco performance, but he did manage to add in two touchdown passes to help fantasy teams on Thursday night.

Both of Flacco's touchdown passes went to Owen Daniels. He targeted Steve Smith a team-high 10 times, more than twice the number of targets as Daniels. It was an odd choice for a game plan.
Fantasy impact: Ben Roethlisberger didn't score a single touchdown, so Flacco's numbers made him look great in comparison. The Ravens moved the ball well to an extent, but they stalled in the red zone, coming up with two touchdowns on six trips.
The Ravens face the Browns in Week 3. Flacco has averaged over two fantasy points per game more against Cleveland over the past two years than his standard weekly total. He still, however, remains a QB2 at best.
