NFL opening-night 2009

The Pittsburgh Steelers get their NFL opening-night showcase as Super Bowl champions. The oldest rivalry in football has a first-week renewal in prime time. An old AFL-style doubleheader closes out the weekend.

That"s how the NFL open night will begin the 2009 season on Thursday, Sept. 10 on NBC, with as juicy a matchup as possible: Pittsburgh Steelers hosting the Tennessee Titans, who merely had the league"s best record in 2008 and who beat the Steelers 31-14 in the 15th game of the NFL football season betting.

NBC also gets the 178th meeting between the Bears and Packers, in Green Bay on Sunday night, Sept. 13.
