Winter Wonderland in Houston: Joe Flacco blazing hot, finds David Njoku for 6 in Browns vs. Texans

The Cleveland Browns are having themselves a very merry Christmas as quarterback Joe Flacco is playing out of his mind against the Houston Texans. After already hitting wide receiver Amari Cooper for a touchdown, Flacco has now threaded the needle to tight end David Njoku for another touchdown. He is playing unconscious football right now in Houston.

Flacco now sits with 223 yards and two touchdowns through the air in the first half against the Texans. He is well on his way to his third straight 300-yard game through the air. Njoku continues his breakout campaign, sitting with 31 yards and a touchdown on three catches thus far.

With kicker Dustin Hopkins sidelined with an injury, the Browns went for a two-point conversion. Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson came onto the field and ran the ball in to convert.

Flacco has, however, just thrown an interception in the two-minute drill as the Browns were looking for more points.
