2025 winners and losers of week 1 of the NFL: Aaron Rodgers beat the planes; Dolphins fall apart in the debut of Daniel Jones’s colts
2025 NFL The season is in full swing. Days after the Eagles Philadelphia Rival Dallas Cowboys survived In the first confrontation of week 1, most of the rest of the League got into the action on Sunday. And there was no shortage of dramatic headlines.
Aaron Rodgers returned to New Jersey while debuted with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Justin Fields brought the same field to the other side, now representing the New York Jets. Cameron Ward took his first official snapshots of the NFL directing the Tennessee Titans. And two contestants from the southern NFC went to the cable before Younghoe Koo lost an attempt of 44 yards field goal for the Atlanta Falcons.
That was just a sample of Sunday’s events, which also included the debut of Russell Wilson as a field marshal of the New York Giants and Mike Vrababel’s first game as chief coach of the New England Patriots, as well as the first bidirectional action of Travis Hunter at the NFL level for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
What coaches, players and/or teams were the biggest winners (and losers) of Sunday’s games?
Winner: Aaron Rodgers
You cannot be much better than Valsing at the Metlife stadium and throw four scores in a shooting victory over the team that left you without ceremonies in spring. Rodgers did not look without age in his debut in the Steelers, absorbing four captures, but surely it seemed more comfortable than while playing for the jets. And it is 1-0 to start 2025, which is what matters most.
We expected a slowdown from Miami, but making Daniel Jones seem the second coming of Peyton Manning? Oh. It’s just a game, but it feels safe to suggest that all its operation is directly in the hot seat now. Needing a strong start to recover confidence in Miami, Tua Tagovailoa was more worrying about everything, losing the ball on one trip after another.
The former stood out from San Francisco 49ers was the theme of some out of season, with many fans arguing that he arrived in Washington out of form. It did not matter against the New York giants, since Samuel led Washington with seven trapped for 77 yards and also scored on the ground with an explosion of 19 yards. Jayden Daniels seemed to appreciate his presence.
Loser: Mike Vrabel
New Year, new leadership, the same results in New England, at least for now. Patriots were supposed to be a very improved animal thanks to Vrababe’s acquisition about the staff. But Drake Maye and Co. still struggled to illuminate the score, and the defense was also so, letting Geno Smith be transmitted to the Las Vegas Raiders. It could be another long year in Foxborough.
The field marshal of the Bay Bay’s Bicans not only benefited from the last lost field of Younghoe Koo, which wasted a possible victory of Atlanta Falcons in the rivalry of NFC South of the NFC South, but found a new possible passes No. 1 in the Rookie Egbuka, which collected four of six goals for a team of team and two Touchdowns team. He is a guardian.
Exaggerated reactions of week 1 of the NFL season: Does the worst Dolphins team in the NFL? Will Aaron Rodgers launch for 40 touchdowns?
Jeff Kerr
Loser: Zac Taylor
Another year, another doubtful beginning of the Cincinnati Bengals, which somehow manages to separate world class offensive talent into minimum results outside the door. Yes, the Bengals have at least 1-0 after sneaking from the rival Cleveland Browns, but Joe Burrow and Co. finished week 1 with only 113 yards for the air, averaging a miserable 2.9 yards for offensive game.
Winner: Daniel Jones
Miami’s disastrous debut could be the true story of the first party of the Indianapolis Colts, but we cannot forget to give Jones its flowers. After hardly beating Anthony Richardson to maintain the best work of Mariscal de Campo de Indy, the former giant castle looked completely comfortable in his first game as a foal, scoring three times and, perhaps more markedly, throwing the rock field with a first level touch.
Do you remember when Young talked about the NFL for a few weeks later in 2024? Most of that exaggeration had to do with the fact that Young finally exercised confidence at NFL level. However, he did not completely explain the fact that Carolina’s panthers had not yet taken constantly. His aerial inefficiencies returned with a force on the most -old departure on Sunday against Jacksonville.
