You can't really blame Joe Flacco for his F-bomb slip-up after the 38-year-old Baltimore Ravens QB led his team to a thrilling 34-31 victory against the San Francisco 49ers.

"This is f***king awesome!" Flacco said as he hugged his teammate Marshal Yanda in celebration. CBS cameras caught the exchange as they panned over the players.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Flacco swore at the end of game coverage, which is why there was no tape delay that would have allowed producers to bleep his F-bomb out.

Flacco threw three touchdown passes and 287 yards Sunday.
