Week 1
Denver - The Seattle Seahawks kick off the 2018 season with a rematch of Superbowl XLVIII when they head to Denver to take on the Denver Broncos. Both these teams hardly resemble the squads that took the field in 2013. That matchup featured the most prolific offenses of all time led by Peyton Manning for the Broncos, against one of the greatest defenses of all time the Legion of Boom, and the Seattle Seahawks. Manning is retired, the LOB is gone, and the Broncos are now the team that has the dominant defense amongst these two teams. Both squads are coming off disappointing 2017 campaigns, looking to get back to form, and get off to a good start on Sunday. The game kicks off at 1:25 PT from Broncos Stadium at Mile High.
