Here are the best games for football fans to watch on Sunday during NFL Week 1 of the 2019 season.

NFL Week 1 of the 2019 season officially kicked off on Thursday when the Green Bay Packers defeated the Chicago Bears in what turned out to be quite the defensive battle.

And while most football fans may not have considered this game the most exciting way to kick off a new season of action, at least Sunday is filled with plenty of great battles were following.

One of the best factors about the first week of NFL action is how every team begins with a clean slate, and while there may be some concerns over some teams being rusty due, chances are some of the top contenders will still come out firing.

From the New England Patriots hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers in what could very well turn out to be an early playoff preview to the Minnesota Vikings and Atlanta Falcons squaring off, Week 1 is filled with plenty of exciting games for football fans to follow.

The first week of meaningful action can be difficult to follow for some football fans to follow since they don’t always know what to expect from their respected teams, especially if they rested key starters most of the preseason.

Isn’t it crazy to think about how fast the offseason flew by since Super Bowl LIII between the Patriots and Los Angeles Rams seemed like it only happened yesterday?

Before fans know it, winter will be here, and they will have a better idea of which teams have what it takes to make a serious Super Bowl run since there will be plenty of contenders in the mix.

For now, it only seems fair to help fans prepare for the first full Sunday of action by looking ahead to the best games for this upcoming weekend, starting off with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Kansas City Chiefs.
