It’s finally here! NFL training camp has begun for most teams and we’re about a week away from watching our first preseason football game

Coaching changes can also bring some excitement in a lite version way. However as fun as the beginning of preseason can be, it does tend to drag towards the end as the need and want for regular season football begins to loom.

The product is less than subpar unless there’s a headline player attempting to make the final 53. That turns our attention to the moment we look most forward to, the NFL’s week one regular season.

Among the 16 games that will be played the first week, we’ll take a look at five that everyone should keep an eye on.
