The 2022 NFL season will be as intense as the previous season and even better that Tom Brady is back after a short retirement. Last season was good, the Rams built a team to win the Super Bowl but they still have to show if that team will work to defend the title.

Another league in the US, theNBA, offers games during Christmas since it is a special date for the fans and most of them are at home watching the games. The NFL has everything perfectly planned for the upcoming one, it just hasn’t been fully revealed to the public yet.
