Former Indianapolis Colts QB Joe Flacco has been traded to the Cincinnati Bengals after spending four games with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns will receive a fifth and sixth-round pick for the deal.

Flacco was certainly an upgrade at quarterback over Browning and he proved that he might be able to save their season, but the problem is that he's only going to have three days to do it. The 2-5 Bengals will be hosting the 4-1 Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night in what is essentially a must-win game for Cincinnati.

Quarterback is the most-talked-about position around the Cincinnati Bengals as the NFL trade deadline looms. But the Bengals should want to look at the trade block as a way to buy and sell at other spots, too. One trade idea has the Bengals striking a deal with the Dallas Cowboys .

The Indianapolis Colts' division foe, the Tennessee Titans, have fired head coach Brian Callahan, the team announced on Monday.

Joe Flacco has given the Cincinnati Bengals a jolt of confidence after one start. Next up on the to-do list is getting the Bengals (2-4) back on the winning track. Flacco passed for 219 yards and two touchdowns in Cincinnati's 27-18 loss at Green Bay on Sunday.
