No. 8 best game on Week 1 of 2022 NFL Schedule: Jaguars @ Commanders
The Jacksonville Jaguars hit the road to start the season and things aren’t going to be easy for Trevor Lawrence and Doug Pederson in their debut together.
The Washington Commanders may not have made the most impactful quarterback acquisition in 2022 by trading for Carson Wentz, but their defense is really good and I don’t know how the Jaguars’ offensive line is going to hold up against Chase Young and that front seven.
Not only that, but Washington greatly improved on both sides of the ball, especially on the offensive side where they picked up Jahan Dotson in the 2022 NFL Draft and added Andrew Norwell and Trai Turner at the guard positions.
Washington’s got a big opportunity to get off to a good start.
No. 7 best game on Week 1 of 2022 NFL Schedule: Eagles @ Lions
I’ve been saying this all offseason, but I’m higher on the Lions than most.
Especially if Jameson Williams is healthy, the Lions are going to be must-see TV every single week.
I think they have one of the most improved groups of skill players in the league, they have a solid offensive line, and the defense just added a star in Aidan Hutchinson.
On the other side, the Eagles have had a heck of an offseason as well.
Not only did they add to their pass rush by bringing in Haason Reddick, but they went out in the 2022 NFL Draft and swung a trade for AJ Brown.
Watching the receivers on both teams in this game will be an absolute treat.
