FOOTBALL IS BACK and if that isn't wild enough, we saw Tom Brady struggle and three 5-plus-point 'dogs win outright for the first time since 2005. John Breech expected a Bucs loss and thinks they'll be fine (Jonathan Jones has more on that) but I think Cam's Pats will win more games than Brady this year. Ryan Wilson has an interesting take on the Cowboys as we dive deep into every Week 1 game.

Seahawks fans spent the offseason trying to convince their team to 'Let Russ Cook,' and it appears Seattle has finally let its QB into the kitchen. All Russell Wilson did was go 31 of 35 for 322 yards and 4 TDs, and John Breech gave the Seahawks an 'A.' Breech got out his red pen to grade every team's performance; one got a big, fat 'F.'

If a global pandemic and murder hornets aren't a sign of the apocalypse, how about this: The Pats are underdogs. Not only that, they're 4-point 'dogs, marking just the second time they've been 'dogs of 4 or more since 2011. John Breech broke down all the Week 2 early odds (we don't let Breech sleep on Mondays); here's why it might actually be safe to bet on the Bengals.

Will Big Ben be able to simply pick up where he left off two seasons ago? What will the Giants look like with Joe Judge as coach? There are a ton of questions as we get ready for Monday Night Football, and Jared Dubin has the answers as he breaks down the key matchups, and has a very interesting prediction.

Lamar Jackson is the reigning MVP and the narrative is that he's bound to regress, but Jason La Canfora is firing up a new narrative. JLC explains why Jackson's latest tour de force performance may have been his best yet, and he's got more Week 1 notes, including why Cam's Pats aren't about style points, and a possible QB controversy brewing in the AFC.

We get an extra heaping helping of MNF in Week 1, and Cody Benjamin breaks down everything you need to know. How bad will Von Miller's absence hurt the Broncos? Can the Titans handle the Mile High air? And what about Courtland Sutton? Here's what to look for (and if Cody's prediction is right, we're in for a thriller).

The Cowboys may have won the offseason, but the actual season has not started well. Dallas fell to the Rams, and in the process lost both Leighton Vander Esch and Blake Jarwin to injury. So, how will they replace their Pro Bowl LB and starting TE? Patrik Walker came up with these eight possibilities.
