Here are 20 bold predictions for Week 1 of the 2018 NFL season to help get football fans ready.
Football fans are relieved to see that Week 1 of the 2018 NFL season has finally arrived after doing just about everything possible over the last couple of months to help pass the time, but there’s no question it will be worth the wait.
From seeing if the Philadelphia Eagles have what it takes to defend their Super Bowl title to whether Tom Brady can earn that sixth ring, all players and teams realize the importance of starting off that first game of a new season on a hot note, no matter what took place the year before.
As for the Green Bay Packers, all eyes will be on Aaron Rodgers heading into Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears, as the star quarterback will be motivated more than ever after watching his team miss out on the playoffs last year for the first time since the 2008 season. Without question, the outcome of last season most likely would have been much different if Rodgers never suffered that broken collarbone, and was healthy enough to play the entire year, but all the Packers can do is focus on what the next couple of months have in store.
Starting with the team’s first game against a familiar face in Chicago, Green Bay hopes to see Rodgers start off the year on a hot note by continuing to play at a MVP level, which is normal for a player with a reputation of being a top quarterback in the league. Along with what to expect from Rodgers and the Packers, here are 20 bold predictions of what football fans should expect now that Week 1 is officially here.
