NFL Weather Report for Week 1 (What's the Forecast for Every NFL Team and Matchup Today?)
By Ben Heisler
The first NFL Sunday of the regular season has finally arrived, and with it comes a handful of games with potential for rain in the forecast.
Traditionally, rain in-and-of-itself tends not to make a major impact on the totals for NFL games unless wind becomes a key factor. If there are gusts of 20-plus mph or greater, unders tend to play a much greater impact on the game.
Here are the NFL matchups for Week 1 of the season, forecasts for each game, and the latest up-to-date betting lines.
