NFL Tailgate host, Ben Graham: “This season is going to be massive. I’m expecting the closest season in decades. Can the Eagles go back-to-back?
“Has the Chiefs’ dynasty ended? Will the 49ers bounce back? Will Micah Parsons be the difference in Green Bay? So many questions but all will be revealed over the coming months on the road to Super Bowl 60 in San Francisco,” he said.
“For Australian NFL fans, we can’t wait for a real NFL game at the MCG in Melbourne in September 2026 but this season, keep an eye on the best punter in the NFL, Michael Dickson of the Seahawks and of course, Super Bowl winning Offensive Line at the Eagles, Jordan Mailata. Strap yourselves NFL fans, this season is going to be wild.”
