Joe Flacco needs to keep the Fu Manchu going

One of the most epic parts about watching the Ravens beat the 49ers on Thanksgiving was seeing Joe Flacco lead Baltimore to victory while sporting an epic Fu Manchu mustache.

Not only did the Ravens walk out of the locker room on Turkey Day sporting their awesome black uniforms, but Cam Cameron’s beard reappeared while Flacco and tight end Dennis Pitta sported sweet new mustaches.

“He’s the quarterback, he has to have swag,” Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs told Matt Vensel of The Sun. “You don’t see that kid from, you know, the kid from up north. You don’t see him with one of those.”

If Torrey Smith can get tackled by his hair and still want to keep his dreadlocks, then I say Flacco should keep the Fu Manchu after beating one of the NFC’s best teams on Thanksgiving.
