Carson Wentz's NFL debut got off to a fast start.

Carson Wentz didn't waste any time getting his first NFL touchdown out of the way. He led the Eagles down the field on a 75-yard scoring drive to open the game against the Browns, which was capped off by a 19-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Matthews.

Not only was it the first of Wentz's career, it was the first score by any NFL team on Sunday. And, boy, was it pretty.

Wentz finished the drive 4/5 for 57 yards, his only incompletion coming on a drop by Matthews on the first pass of the game. It also included a spectacular one-handed catch by tight end Zach Ertz for the first completion of the rookie's career.
