Quick kicks on this first Sunday of the NFL season

* If you're a fantasy football player, you may have Brandin Cooks on your radar now. The rookie receiver made an impression in his Saints debut. It helps having Drew Brees as your QB too!

* Dallas Cowboys have a couple things to ponder. If you thought it was a 49ers home game, instead of Dallas', you're not the only one to notice. The crowd noise appeared to be pro-Niners.
Secondly, Tony Romo may be the anti-Russell Wilson. Romo was a dessert cart - offering turnover after turnover. Romo tries to force things, hoping to make happen instead of living for the next play.

* Kansas City doesn't appear to be near the team they were last year. Yes, it's the first game. Yes, every team can't be perfect week after week. But, the Chiefs appeared off their game facing the Titans under their new coach Ken Whisenhunt. Don't worry just yet Chiefs fans, your team joins the Packers, Bears and another notable team...

*Notables - overall first pick in this year's draft Clowney injured in his first game for the Texans.
            - Dolphins win over Patriots!
            - Ore, sorry, Philadelphia hit the accelerator after being down at halftime 17-0 to win 34-17 over the Jaguars.
            - The Browns comeback to tie the Steelers was a bittersweet effort, as the Steelers pull out the        win on their final drive, capped by a field goal. Final score 30-27.
