Ill go out on a limb and say Arizona...
No chance. Arizona is not interesting in the slightest to the national audience. NBC isn't putting them in the opener.

49ers and Broncos will not be the opener. Makes no sense. They can have us play just about any team with a decent fan base and they'll get huge ratings for the opener. 49ers and Broncos will be huge games regardless of when they are televised. My money is on Dallas or Green Bay. The Giants would be a dark horse candidate.
Completely agree with this entire post. I think it will be Green Bay myself, but Dallas or the Giants would not surprise me either.

I actually agree with this BECAUSE .. I think a SEA/SF game will be the Thanksgiving primetime game this year. Just call it a hunch. That's must see TV and aside from the small demo that's out doing Black Friday shopping.. everyone is at home on Thanksgiving. Not to mention, NBC runs that game.. has done rivalries in both seasons it has added it.. and is free and clear of having to use the Cowboys or Lions.
