THE 2022 FOOTBALL SEASON FEATURES THE RETURN OF TOM BRADY, AARON RODGERS AND MANY MORE BIG NAMES

- DANNY SHERIDAN

NFL PREVIEW

Washington has a new team name, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers are each playing (at least) one more year and Joe Burrow is hoping to finally light a Super Bowl victory cigar. When the new NFL season begins on September 8, questions will abound. Will it be one of the old lions hoisting the Lombardi Trophy in February, or will a new star emerge?

AFC EAST

DIVISION WINNER Buffalo Bills

This could be the year. New offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey must ask a little less of the wondrous Josh Allen, who ranked third among QBs in rushing yards per game (44.9). They’ve got a top receiver in Stefon Diggs, who topped 1,000 receiving yards for the second straight year and caught 10 touchdowns; a new slot receiver in Jamison Crowder; O.J. Howard as a complement to tight end Dawson Knox and a retooled offensive line. Rookie James Cook is a versatile weapon. Signing Von Miller in free agency and the return of Tre’Davious White bolster the NFL’s best defense, not to mention No. 1 pick Kaiir Elam, who should start at corner opposite White. They’re now the kings of the AFC East, eager to show taxpayers they deserve that new $1.4 billion stadium in 2026.

2 New England Patriots

Drive A Tank

At more than 3,000 pounds, a Chevy Malibu is a formidable vehicle with a crash-safety test rating of five-stars. But against a 60-ton Chieftain tank, it’s a mere speed bump. That is, if speed bumps came with the sound of crunched steel and shattered glass. Driving a tank that’s the weight of 20 Cadillac Escalades over a junked auto is the “Crush a Car” option of Drive A Tank, the Minnesota facility that offers customers maximal military sensations you’d otherwise have to enlist to experience.
