Joe Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens squared off against the Houston Texans on “Monday Night Football.” As part of its coverage, ESPN rolled out a bizarre graphic in which Flacco sprouted raven’s wings and strutted and danced and stuff.

Wow. Talk about an “elite” graphic. A disturbing one to boot as well.

The Ravens came out of Monday night with a much-needed 23-16 victory, moving them to 6-5 and in the thick of the AFC Wild Card race. Flacco threw for 141 yards and no touchdowns on a 20-for-32 passing night. The veteran quarterback also rushed six times for 42 yards, but it goes without saying “Raven-winged Joe Flacco” had the best moves of the night.
