The NFL season kicks off tonight at 8:30 PM. The first game of the NFL regular season will be against the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. the New England Patriots. Football fans have been waiting for the regular season football to come back since mid March. Now the wait is over and NFL football season is finally back. The NFL picked the right two teams to kickoff the NFL regular season.
Both of these teams dislike each other very strongly. This should be a great game to watch especially with Brady 4 game suspension getting overturned in court so you know he will be playing with a chip on his shoulder. Especially with him saying, "You know what my favorite ring is the next one". That just added fuel to the fire for this game. Also football fans will get too see how the Patriots corner backs look like with the loss of Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner. The Patriots corner backs now put all their faith on Malcolm Butler who picked off Russell Wilson in the end zone to help the New England Patriots win the Superbowl last February.
Malcolm Butler will have a tough match up tonight covering one of the top wide receivers in the game in Antonio Brown. I'm sure Ben Roethlisberger will test that match up a lot in the game. Especially with his star running back Le'Veon Bell suspended for the first 2 games due to being arrested on charges of marijuana possession. Also his other deep threat wide receiver Martavis Bryant is also suspended for the first 4 games due to violating the league's substance abuse policy. Tom Brady will also have to adjust without playing without his second favorite target Brandon Lafell since he has foot problems and will be out for the first 6 games. Also Julian Edelman is a game time decision tonight so all Tom Brady really has is Rob Gronkowski and Danny Amendola.
