Trailing 17-6 after three quarters, Chicago native McCarthy put on a show during the game's final 15 minutes in becoming the first quarterback to score three fourth-quarter touchdowns in his NFL debut. He threw touchdown passes to Justin Jefferson and Aaron Jones before he found the end zone himself on a 14-yard run.

Not only is McCarthy 1-0 in his NFL career, but he also made a little bit of history as well. He became the first player in NFL history to score account for three touchdowns in the fourth quarter of his NFL debut, per the "Monday Night Football" broadcast.
