Counting Down to Football Season
Kickoff weekend is more than one game — it is the start of eighteen weeks of Sunday plans, fantasy drafts, and rivalry matchups. A countdown on your home screen turns the offseason wait into something you can actually see shrinking, and gives you a reason to lock in your draft, your jersey, and your watch party before Week 1 arrives.
