Chicago’s 59-37 victory over Carolina produced the first final score of its kind in NFL history — a Week 1 Scorigami.
The unusual score came from a straightforward offensive rout, not late-game oddities: the Bears piled up points across all four quarters, including 17 in the second.
Chicago’s attack was powered by 291 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns, while Caleb Williams added 269 passing yards and two scores.
Carolina still put up 37 points behind Bryce Young’s 361 passing yards and three touchdowns, but the Panthers also surrendered a franchise-record 59 points.
The NFL logged four Scorigamis during the 2025 season, and this 59-37 result opened 2026 with another entry on the list.
