That was some Week 1, huh? It's hard to ask for a better game to end the Sunday slate on than a battle between Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson that comes down to the wire for a historic finish.

Week 1 in the NFL lends itself to plenty of overreaction. But even without indulging in hyperbole, there were several clear winners and losers.

The Titans lost 20-12 to the Denver Broncos on Sept. 7 at Empower Field at Mile High in a game filled with impactful penalties and missed opportunities. Tennessee's offense began possessions in Denver territory five times, producing just three field goals and two punts.

Aaron Rodgers, Daniel Jones and Justin Fields all showed promise in Week 1 while Russell Wilson and the Lions did not.

Love only threw for 188 yards and two touchdowns in the win, finding Jayden Reed and Tucker Kraft for scores. Josh Jacobs found the end zone on one of his 19 carries, and Micah Parsons’ debut saw him earn a sack in rotational duty as he ramps up to a full snap count.

The first Sunday of play in the 2025 NFL season provided fantasy managers with several surprises and disappointments, as well as a look at a few breakout performers who could very well play significant roles in determining their league champion.
