The new NFL season kicks off this Thursday 10 September in Massachusetts with defending Super Bowl champions New England Patriots hosting Pittsburgh Steelers at Gillette Stadium. The 32 NFL teams will once again battle their way through the 17 week regular season, hoping to be in the postseason play-off mix in January and in contention for Super Bowl 50. The 50th edition of the Super Bowl will take place on 7 February 2016, at Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, California, the home of the San Francisco 49ers. The new season is the perfect opportunity for you to introduce your NFL team to us, and share your photos and stories about what your chosen team means to you.
