I would like to start today's newsletter by apologizing to the NFL. When the 2021 schedule was released back in May, I thought the league made a horrible mistake putting the in the opener and that's mostly because I thought Tampa Bay was going to win by three touchdowns.Well, the joke's on me because last night's game might go down as the greatest opening game in history. It had everything you could ever ask for in a game: looked like , which wasn't enough to beat Tom Brady because Tom Brady looked like Super Tom Brady. The man is 44 years old and he still somehow had enough gas left in the tank to lead a last minute comeback to give the a wild 31-29 win.If the rest of the NFL season is just half as exciting as Thursday's game, then this is going to be the craziest season ever. This newsletter is a perfect way to help you keep tabs on all the crazy things that happen over the course of the season so please tell all your friends to sign up. One of my friends signed up Deion Sanders Jersey yesterday and then sent me an email to tell me he signed up (Shout out to Adam!). You don't have to email me, but you can if you want.To get your friends to sign up, all you have to do is with them. Alright, let's get to the rundown. 1. Today's show: Recapping the Buccaneers' wild win over the CowboysThe NFL has been holding a Thursday night opener since 2002 and I have to say, last night's game was definitely the best one yet. The only thing more exciting than the game was the podcast we recorded after the game.In today's episode of the podcast, we recapped the Bucs' wild win over the Cowboys. If you mi sed the game, here's a quick rehash of what happened and what we talked about on the podcast:Tom DeMarcus Lawrence Jersey Brady delivers. For the 49th time in his career, Tom Brady delivered a last second comeback in the regular season. With the Buccaneers trailing 29-28 and just 1:24 remaining, the future Hall of Famer drove his team 57 yards in a span of just seven plays to set up game-winning 36-yard field goal. Brady went 5 of 7 for 62 yards on a drive that included a 20-yard pa s to and a 24-yard pa s to (The Buccaneers got called for a five-yard penalty if you're wondering how Brady threw for 62 yards on a 57-yard drive). Overall, Brady ended up throwing for 379 yards and four touchdowns. Those numbers probably should have been higher, but his receivers kept dropping pa ses.Dak doesn't look rusty. After not taking a game snap for 11 months, there was some concern that Dak Prescott might look rusty in Week 1, but that definitely wasn't the case. Prescott's first throw of the game went for 28 yards and at that point, it was pretty clear there was no rust. Not only did Prescott end up throwing for 403 yards and three touchdowns, but he also set an opening week record with 42 completions.Cowboys killed by kicking woes. first game of the season was an ugly one. The Cowboys kicker mi sed three kicks in the first half, including a 31-yard field goal attempt Dallas Cowboys Men Jersey that went way left and an extra point that mi sed off the upright (You can see how far left he ). Those were four key points that the Cowboys could have used (Zuerlein also mi sed a 60-yard field goal, but the Cowboys probably won't hold that against him). The veteran kicker did slightly redeem himself with a 48-yard field goal that gave Dallas the lead in the final 90 seconds, but the earlier mi ses were costly and it won't be surprising if the Cowboys decide to try out a Dallas Cowboys Jackets few kickers this week.Controversial finish. The end of the game definitely came with some controversy thanks to a no-call on a potential offensive pa s interference play by Chris Godwin. The Buccaneers receiver appeared to push off of Cowboys defender before he made his 24-yard catch that set up Tampa Bay's game-winning field goal. Former NFL referee Terry McAulay, who now works as the rules official for NBC, said he definitely would have called offensive pa s interference.

With Peters out for the season, the Ravens will need and to contribute even more this year. Smith battled an ankle injury for most of training camp and will likely mi s Week 1, but after that, he should become a key contributor. As for Young, he could end up being a huge help as long as he can stay healthy. The 27-year-old started 11 games as a rookie in 2016, but he's mi sed 47 games over the past four seasons (He mi sed all Dallas Cowboys Women Jersey of 2017 with a torn ACL and all of 2019 with a neck injury).
