Hello NFL fans and welcome to The Athletic’s live coverage of the nightcap to the first NFL Sunday of the 2025 season.
We have an incredible one in store for you tonight as Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens head north to face Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in western New York.
It’s a battle of the last two NFL MVPs (Jackson in 2023, Allen in 2024) and an immediate chance at revenge for the Ravens, whose season ended in a narrow loss at Buffalo in the divisional round of last year’s playoffs.
We’ll have full insight and analysis from The Athletic’s team of NFL writers, including several reporters on the ground at Highmark Stadium.
So stick with us as we take you all the way to kickoff and through the end of the first “Sunday Night Football” game of the 2025 season!
