In his first regular season game as an NFL quarterback, number 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield has pulled the Browns even with the New York Jets at 14-14 with 42 seconds left in the third quarter.
Two field goals, a touchdown run from Carlos Hyde and a second chance to convert a 2-point conversion have the Browns offense in rhythm for the first time all game.
Hyde's touchdown was set up by this laser from Mayfield to Jarvis Landry.
