God bless Johnny Football and his giant Texas heart. In a scene straight out of the first season of Friday Night Lights, starting quarterback McCown went down after a huge a second quarter end zone helmet crunch that left him out for the game with a concussion. Enter: Johnny Fucking Football. Now cue glorious 54-yard touchdown pass. Yes. Exactly.
See below for a (fairly spectacular) gif of Jason Street—I mean, Josh McCown (too soon?) getting horrifyingly injured during his failed touchdown attempt.

Plus, as a bonus: right before Manziel launched his immaculate long bomb, Football Himself came in and dashed out of the pocket for a 24-yard run that was simply inspired. The run was later cancelled out by a chop block penalty on the Browns. But honestly, what can’t the man do? Say anything besides “nothing” and you’re a liar.
All we need now is Tammy Taylor telling us to get our grades up, and everything will be in its right place.
UPDATE:
But then, you know, this happened, along with two fumbles. And then the Browns lost to the Jets 31-10. Just keeping things in perspective.
