Cleveland Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III might have found his favorite receiver. For the second consecutive week, Griffin connected with Terrell Pryor on a long pass, but unlike in the preseason opener, this one went for a touchdown Thursday night against the Falcons.
A week after hitting Pryor on a 49-yard pass on the Browns' first play from scrimmage, Griffin threw a high-arching pass to Pryor for a 50-yard touchdown with 7:45 left in the first quarter against Atlanta.
Griffin wasn't done finding the end zone through the air. He floated a pass over the outstretched arms of Falcons defensive back Keanu Neal to hit Gary Barnidge for a 29-yard touchdown.
