IT'S FINALLY GAMEDAY FOOTBALL FANS!!!!. And It kicks off at primetime tonight on NBC!!!. The defending Superbowl champions, Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs the Dallas Cowboys. Who will win?, Injury report, Weather forecast, players to watch and some predictions for tonight's inaugural game of the season...


Definitely one of the first things that fan bases look at before a game is the Injury report and weather forecast...

_________

Weather forecast for Tampa bay Florida...

2:30pm to 5:35pm, according to AccuWeather. 89 degrees, feels like 99, 39% possibility of Thunderstorm that will carry lightning, 65% chance of rain and wind gusts up to 21 MPH... Might give is a idea of the fields quality...


At Kickoff: 78 degrees, feels like 85, 25% chance of a Thunderstorm that will carry lightning, 42% chance of rain and wind gusts of 11 MPH... A little concerning considering that Lightning would be the only thing to have a chance of halting the game but, don't expect it to stick around long enough for a postponement.

Players to watch: Dallas Cowboys

1.QB, Dak Prescott...

Prescott is coming off that brutal season ending injury he suffered last season. He shattered his ankle and it required season ending surgery. Prescott left the field on a cart and was left in tears. He vowed to the fans that he would come back stronger than ever. But, he already has been dealing with a separate issue this season, shoulder pain in his throwing arm. Hopefully he can stay healthy for Thursday nights matchup against the Buccs...


2.LB, Micah Parsons...

Micah Parsons is a rookie Linebacker from Penn State University, he was drafted 12th overall by the Dallas Cowboys in this year's NFL draft back in late April. He is expected to make a big impact on the Cowboys defense. He faces a big challenge In his debut as he will face Tom Brady.


3.WR, CeeDee Lamb...

Lamb is in his 2nd season in the NFL. Drafted By Dallas 17th overall in the virtual 2020 draft, Lamb still has a lot to prove. NFL analysis Peter Schreager said on GMFB this morning that he predicts Lamb to have atleast 90 receptions this season. The 2nd yr wideout certainly has some big expectations this season.

_______

Players to watch: Tampa Bay Buccaneers


1.TE, Rob Gronkowski...

You can argue that Gronkowski is the greatest Tight End of all-time. He will easily be inducted to the NFL hall of fame

one day. Last season Gronk came out of retirement just to join his old pal Tom Brady In Tampa. Well... He still is out of retirement and playing well and Brady always looks for Gronk In his passing plays...


2. S, Antoine Winfield Jr...

Winfield Jr became even more famous because of the photo I have pictured above... But, in all seriousness tonight Winfield Jr will be a important piece for the Buccaneers with their other starting Saftey, Jordan Whitehead being OUT because of a hamstring. You can call Antoine a playmaker for sure and should be fun to watch against a beat up Prescott...


3.LB, Lavonte David...

David is the defensive captain for the Buccaneers. He is a Vet who hasn't skipped a beat in his play style. He is in his 10th NFL season and has racked 24 sacks in his career. He has played with the Buccs his entire career...

________

Score prediction: Buccaneers 31, Cowboys 6...

Thanks for reading and have a great day/night
