FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. Week 1 is here.

The Atlanta Falcons will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET to kick off their 2025 season.

However, Tampa Bay went on to win the division for the fourth consecutive year, while Atlanta finished second and missed the playoffs. Is this the year the Falcons flip the script? A brand-new season awaits and fittingly enough, it starts with the Buccaneers.

Many NFL experts have revealed their Falcons-Buccaneers picks. Check out the full list below:
