John Brown's connection with Joe Flacco involves late brother

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- In the final seconds Sunday, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver John Brown ran down the sideline where he found the soft spot in the New Orleans Saints' coverage.

Brown knew Joe Flacco soon would find him for a 14-yard touchdown.

Whether it's in the end zone, on fourth down or deep downfield, Brown and Flacco have formed the best new tandem in the NFL this season. They immediately built a trust, and as Brown puts it, an instinctual bond.

"It's just something about Joe Flacco," Brown said.
