NFL Week 1 is here. To keep an eye on some of the highlights and other big news throughout Sunday, keep it locked here for updates.
In the beginning, Steelers at the Browns, Bengals at the Colts, Titans at the Dolphins, 49ers at the Vikings, Texans at the Patriots, Buccaneers at the Saints, Jaguars at the Giants and Billsat Ravens. The late afternoon schedule features Chiefs at the Chargers, Seahawks at the Broncos, Washington at the Cardinals and Cowboys at the Panthers. And Sunday Night Football, we have the oldest rivalry of the NFL: Bears at Packers. The first week of Monday night, the night football has two parts: Jets at Lions and Rams at Raiders.
Hands display
You want to see beautiful contacts? Ok, I've got it.
Jimmy Garoppolo earned his first pass of the season thanks to Dante Pettis.
And here's Andy Dalton unleashes a red rocket launch to find AJ Green for a long ground run.
And without doubt, the best choice of the weekend (so far) goes to Antonio Brown for this bad catch.
Ryan Fitzpatrick? OK then!
The Buccaneers turn on the Saints defense in the first period and Ryan Fitzpatrick leads with three touchdowns in the first two quarters. After his bomb at DeSean Jackson, Fitz ran for a TD – and punished a security in New Orleans.
Then, the former Harvard officer also won his second TD pass with Chris Godwin.
Fitzpatrick then added a fourth touchdown with that 50-yard drive to Mike Evans in the second half.
Answer the bell
James Conner himself begins his second campaign in Pittsburgh. Beginning in the place of The Veon Bell, Conner tears him up against the Browns. He has nearly 100 yards on the ground with two touchdowns (including the big 20 yard rush below) and has also had an impact on the Steelers' passing game.
That's the kind of performance that makes it a little easier to swallow Bell's absence.
Browns are on the board
Ty-Rod? Tuh-Rod? More like Ty-god.
The quarterback of the Browns finally appealed to Cleveland in the second half and he did it with his legs. Taylor attempted a 20-yard touchdown – his first as a member of the Browns.
Elite Connections
Joe Flacco is wasting no time making friends with his new targets in Baltimore. Flacco found veteran Michael Crabtree at the back of the starting area and Crabtree made a good game to push back the blanket and keep both feet on the ground.
Flacco also added touchdown passes to John Brown and Willie Snead, who were also free agents in the off season. It looks like the veteran quarterback is taking advantage of his new weapons in the passing game.
Bless them, Jarvis
Jarvis Landry has his first official nail as receiver Browns … and he used two hands! Landry managed to make the most of a Tyrod Taylor subjet by retrieving it and pulling it from the air around his lap.
Kirk's first strike as Vike
The Kirk Cousins Era is officially launched in Minnesota, and the start is pretty good! The new Vikings quarterback sent a great touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs for his first game of the season. The points at Diggs to cap it with a solid touchdown dance. Mid-season form all around.
Bengals go to Bengals
Well, the Cincinnati Bengals could not do a single quarter without a dirty move to start this season. Security Shawn Williams was ejected in the first quarter of the season thanks to the helmet's blow to Andrew Luck. Williams was hit with a targeting call and rightly sent to the showers early.
More like Jackson De-Gone
It's week 1 and we have word games! Ryan Fitzpatrick made a good start to Tampa Bay this season, when he found fast DeSean Jackson with a 58-yard touchdown, even with the Saints at the start.
Brady-to-Gronk connection still strong
If the relationship between Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski was worrying after a fairly dramatic off-season in New England, it looks like all is well. Brady connected with Gronk just minutes after the first quarter opener of the Pats season against the Texans on Sunday. It was pretty vintage.
