The Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs play in the first Thursday Night Football game of the NFL season. With both teams winning their opening week games, here is a look at who has the advantage in this week's big game.
The Pittsburgh Steelers aren't the same on defense like they have been for years, but the offense is very dangerous still. Despite a 28-21 loss in Week 1 to the New England Patriots on the road, the Steelers will be a tough opponent for the 49ers in Week 2. First, Pittsburgh has had some extra rest and time to prepare, while San Francisco will be a day short on both. Second, the Steelers have enough weapons on offense to really challenge a depleted 49ers defense. Finally, it's never easy to steal a win in Pittsburgh.
2015 NFL schedule makers certainly did not do the (0-1) Oakland Raiders any favors when comprising matchups for the first two weeks of the season, as the Silver and Black host the second playoff team (from a year ago) in as many weeks. The O.co Coliseum in Oakland, California, will once again be overfilled with one of the most loyal fanbases in football when the (0-1) Baltimore Ravens look for their first win of the season at the Raiders' expense.
For all the changes in personnel and the unfavorable matchups against the Minnesota Vikings, the San Francisco 49ers defense really played like it was 2011 on Monday night in the season-opening game. The passing game still has miles to go, but running back Carlos Hyde demonstrated he's more than capable of replacing Frank Gore in the lineup. Overall, it was a great night for the 49ers as they started the 2015 NFL season with a surprisingly easy victory.
Carlos Hyde ran for a 10-yard score late in the first half by spinning away from a defender and diving into the end zone untouched on a rare nice play in a game full of ugly ones

It was a sight all too familiar to Raider Nation, as another season of NFL football kicked off with lots of excitement, but quickly fizzled with a dismal performance by the Oakland Raiders. The end result was a 20-point drumming at the hands of the Cincinnati Bengals, 33-13, who went into the Black Hole and dominated in every facet of the game.
Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has left the opener against Cincinnati with an undisclosed injury.
Every NFL team should start the season this healthy: The San Francisco 49ers have one injury concern heading into the regular-season opener on Monday night against the Minnesota Vikings at Levi's Stadium. Cornerback Tramaine Brock—nominally the team's No. 1 corner in what is an otherwise weak secondary—has a hamstring issue, and he is listed as questionable for the game. The Niners front seven will look very strange to fans of the team, in terms of personnel changes, so Brock's presence in the defensive backfield is a big one for San Francisco.
A total of 13 players comprise the Oakland Raiders and the Cincinnati Bengals' 2015 NFL Week 1 injury reports. Following Friday's practice, Jack Del Rio and Marvin Lewis revealed the extend of those injuries and the game statuses for Sunday's opener from the East Bay.
