Football is back! Finally! Actual, real football tonight as the New England Patriots play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Foxborough to open the 2015 NFL season. And Tom Brady will actually suit up, now that he's actually beaten the NFL in court, at least temporarily.
This should be a pretty good matchup to get everyone back into football, with the Super Bowl champions playing a perennial playoff contender, two star quarterbacks and some heavy-hitting defenses. But who are we kidding: we'd watch the Raiders play the Browns at this point. We just want some real football for once. No more preseason teasers. No more training camp highlights. Not even college football. Actual NFL football. Can't wait!
You can find everything you need to watch the game below.
