  "account": "On Sunday, Carson Wentz made NFL history when he led the Minnesota Vikings to a 39-22 victory over the Green Bay Packers in Week 1. The surprise starter for the Vikings was a result of quarterback Kyler Murray suffering a concussion in the first quarter, forcing him to leave the game. Wentz stepped in to complete the rest of the game, throwing for 133 yards and three touchdowns while committing no turnovers. ESPN Insights later revealed that Wentz became the first reserve to achieve a 3 TD and 0 INT performance in a season-opening win since Fran Tarkenton did so against the Vikings on September 17, 1961. Despite not being a standout performance, Wentz's ability to lead the team to victory bodes well for the Vikings' prospects in Murray's likely absence.",
