Now this is what Cleveland Browns fans have been waiting to see.

Amid an otherwise uninspiring performance Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Johnny Manziel made one play in particular that was similar to the many that earned him a Heisman trophy at Texas A&M.

The polarizing young quarterback avoided a number of Steelers defenders by scampering around the pocket to give himself space, after which he took off for 11 yards and a first down.

Manziel initially appeared to cross the goal line before being tackled, but the play was ruled down at the 1-yard line.

The Browns' were unable to punch it in for their first touchdown of the game, as Manziel would throw an interception after several penalties forced the offense into a fourth-and-long play.
