His biggest prime-time win was a 55-14 victory over the Chicago Bears on "Sunday Night Football" in Week 10 of the 2014 NFL season. He's played the Bears the most in prime time and has an 11-3 record against them. His career-high passer rating was 147.5 in a 30-16 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football in Week 4 of the 2020 NFL season.
