The NFL is playing a game tonight, and it actually counts for something! The Tennessee Titans take on the Super Bowl XLIII champion Pittsburgh Steelers in Heinz Field. It’s the first regular-season game for NBC’s new broadcast team of Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth, following the retirement of John Madden. Other national TV games of note is the Sunday night matchup at Lambeau Field with Jay Cutler playing in his first regular-season game as a Chicago Bear, taking on the Green Bay Packers. And on Monday night, ESPN has a doubleheader with Terrell Owens making his Buffalo Bills debut against Tom Brady, returning from a season-ending knee injury, and the New England Patriots, followed by LaDainian Tomlinson and the San Diego Chargers taking on the Oakland Raiders, who are probably going to be bad.
