The NFL has finally returned! The season starts tonight on NBC with the defending Super Bowl champion Colts hosting the Saints. I'll tell you, after getting so excited for the start of the college football season to only have disappointment set in just hours after Michigan kicked off, I'm more than ready for the NFL.
Below is the schedule for kickoff weekend. I bolded my picks for who I think will win and will keep a running total throughout the season.
Watch and enjoy!
