The Cleveland Browns needed to bounce back after last week’s blowout loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. More importantly, quarterback Baker Mayfield needed a big game.
Mayfield’s Browns faced Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals in a back-and-forth AFC North battle between in-state rivals.
Mayfield delivered.
With the Browns trailing 34-31 and just over one minute remaining, Mayfield marched Cleveland down the field and threw this absolute dime to Donovan Peoples-Jones from 24 yards out to give the Browns the win.

It was a banner day for the former Oklahoma star. Mayfield completed 22 of 28 passes for 297 yards with five touchdowns and just one interception.
Cleveland is now 5-2 on the season.
