Gee, you think the NFL is trying to steal baseball's thunder? Today is MLB's opening day, but that didn't stop the NFL from announcing its prime-time schedule for Week 1. The season begins Thursday, Sept. 4, with Super Bowl champions the New York Giants hosting the Washington Redskins (7 pm/ET, NBC). The initial Sunday-night game will see the Chicago Bears visit the Indianapolis Colts (Sept. 7, 8:15 pm/ET, NBC), and Monday Night Football's season begins Sept. 8 on ESPN with a doubleheader: the Minnesota Vikings at the Green Bay Packers (7 pm/ET) and the Denver Broncos at the Oakland Raiders (10:15 pm/ET).
