Other starters in their 30s are Prescott (32), Jared Goff (who turned 31 two days ago), Baker Mayfield (30), and Patrick Mahomes (30). (Carson Wentz, the temporary starter in Minnesota, is 32. Kirk Cousins, the backup in Atlanta, is 37.)

In what became affectionately known as the "Unc Bowl" on social media, 40-year-old Bengals QB Joe Flacco bested 41-year-old Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers.

Joe Flacco's five-word message for Aaron Rodgers was caught on camera after he beat him on 'Thursday Night Football.'

We're headed to Week 8 of the fantasy football season, and fantasy managers who placed their hopes on injured QBs such as Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson are looking for solid streamers on the waiver wire.

Less than two weeks after arriving in a trade from the Cleveland Browns, quarterback Joe Flacco was a central figure in the Cincinnati Bengals' 33-31 upset win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night.

Rodgers and Flacco will become just the second quarterback duo to face off against each other after the age of 40.

Joe Flacco felt young in the lead-up to the Bengals' Thursday Night Football game against the Steelers in Week 7. While he probably felt all of his nearly 41 years after taking a few hits from the Pittsburgh defense, he came into the matchup against the Steelers as the game's younger starting quarterback for the first time in years.

The final drive was the perfect encapsulation. The Steelers completely blew a coverage on an 18-yard Chase gain, and Higgins beat Ramsey for the 28-yarder that set up McPherson's game winner. Cincinnati scored on seven of its final eight drives.
