Brian Hoyer looked like he'd be the goat for the Browns. The quarterback threw a pair of horrible picks in the fourth quarter as the Browns tried to protect a late lead. One in the end zone, which could've led to points:
Brian Hoyer leads Browns on game-winning drive over Falcons
Brian Hoyer allowed the Falcons to take a lead with a pair of hideous interceptions. Then he won it for the Browns in the last minute.
And one on a huge overthrow with under five minutes left and just a two-point lead:
Those two throws allowed the Falcons to take the lead on a 53-yard Matt Bryant field goal with 44 seconds left.
But Hoyer took the ball and guided the Browns down the field. He was 4-for-5 with 61 yards on the Falcons' final drive, including this impressive throw on the run to newly-available Josh Gordon:
That drive set Billy Cundiff up for a 37-yard field goal, which he drilled to give the Browns a 26-24 win.
Hoyer had zero touchdowns and three picks -- Isaiah Crowell was responsible for both of the team's touchdowns -- but this late drive gave the Browns the win and keeps them close in the race for the AFC North.
