Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season wasn't always pretty, but you can't knock the entertainment value. Seven of the 13 games in the two afternoon windows were one-score games, and an eighth was a tie. Five were decided by scores in the final two minutes. Multiple teams missed what would have been game-winning field goals, while another was stymied by a blocked extra point. The Chiefs and Ravens were back to their old selves, but the story of the week was upheaval.
Seven playoff teams from last season lost Sunday afternoon, with four losses coming against teams that missed the postseason a year ago.
