I'll bet Steelers. 6th title and all. Chiefs has to be Sunday night later in the season.

Cowboys would be fun though.

I read somewhere opening night will be GB/CHI for the 100th anniversary and Pats will be Sunday night. Probably fake news?

Good. I'd rather they raise the banner on a Sunday night. So much easier to get to the game with my son on a Sunday, than trying to fight through rush hour traffic after he gets out of school on a Thursday.

I grabbed him right off the bus at 3:00 p.m. 2 years ago for the Chiefs opener, and we didn't park the car in Foxboro until 7:00 p.m. Not doing that again.

If the pats get the Thursday night opening game, I don’t think it will be the chiefs. I think they will save that game for Novemberish. My guess is Steelers.

Won't be Chiefs. If it's the Pats on opening night, It'll be similar to 2017 where they left the Falcons rematch for another SNF game down the road.

I'd like to see the Browns, up & coming team taking their shot now in Foxboro.

Dallas is a fine 2nd choice as well

FOX gets Pats vs Cowboys once every 8 years. I would expect FOX to fight for that game.

I think it will be Pats/Giants since I assume Pats/Chiefs will be a November SNF game and CBS will want Pats/Steelers.

Pats/Browns is a good choice for the Thursday Night Game during the season.

Pats @ Miami seems like a decent bet for a MNF game.

This is accurate. Pats will host the SNF opener.

My guess is Pittsburgh. KC-NE is too good to burn in Week 1.

The wheels may be falling off in Pittsburgh so use their best games early. If you hold PIT-NE for post-Thanksgiving who knows what PIT will look like by then.

Good call on Pitt
