Good news for the football fans in the US as the NFL is back. The first week of the 2020 NFL season is finally here. This year's NFL is full of storylines, intense matchups, more interesting due to the lack of the preseason matches for the teams due to the coronavirus or COVID-19 outbreak.
The event started with the first episode of 'Thursday Night Football' as the Houston Texans faced the Kansas City Chiefs in a fixture which the Chiefs won 34-20. But that fixture was just the beginning of the event as the best game of the opening week is going to be played on Sunday afternoon between the Buccaneers and the Saints as both featured in the top five of the Sporting News' NFL Power Rankings.
It is going to be the first time in the career of Tom Brady that he will play for another team other than New England. It will be interesting to see if he scores in the first fixture in Tampa.
