NFL Sunday Schedule, Week 1 2018: Bears-Packers highlights big opening Sunday

There are plenty of intriguing storylines on the first Sunday of the NFL season, but it all comes back to Packers-Bears.

By Evan "Tex" Western
NFL: Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports

It’s the Green Bay Packers’ 100th year of football, and as a result, the team requested a home game against their oldest rival, the Chicago Bears, in week one. Not only did the NFL grant that request, but they put the game in prime time on Sunday Night Football, capping off what is sure to be a fun opening Sunday for the 2018 regular season.

The addition of Khalil Mack adds to the drama surrounding this Packers-Bears game, but there’s plenty of that to go around today. We have one of the league’s brightest young players in DeShaun Watson playing against the league’s oldest star quarterback, Tom Brady. We have a handful of divisional matchups, which are sure to provide some interesting results. There’s also one of the league’s up-and-coming offensive minds, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan, facing a defensive mastermind in the Vikings’ Mike Zimmer.

It should be a fun one so kick back, enjoy, and join us here at APC for all of today’s games!
