Sports Seriously’s Mackenzie Salmon ‘overreacts’ to the biggest storylines from Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season.
Sports Seriously
The first week of action in the 2024 NFL season is just about in the books. All but two teams have played their first games of the season after Sunday’s full schedule of action.
Ahead of the San Francisco 49ers’ clash with the New York Jets on “Monday Night Football,” 30 teams find themselves either 1-0 or 0-1. There are a few divisions that did better than others in Week 1.
The AFC East, for example, has not lost a game yet this season with the Bills, Dolphins and Patriots all taking a victory in Week 1. In contrast, only one team in each of the AFC North (Steelers) and AFC South (Texans) won their first games.
With 17 weeks still to go in the regular season, there is still plenty of time for things to change before the playoffs. Here’s how things look for now, after Week 1:
