On Thursday night, McCarron did it again, marching his St. Louis Battlehawks down the field and setting up the game-winning field goal to beat the Seattle Sea Dragons and move to 2-0.

Along the way, McCarron threw for 184 yards and a touchdown while leading the team in rushing with 41 yards and a score.
