This is anecdotal at the moment, but I'm waiting to look at scoring, efficiency benchmarks, penalties from Week 1 and from what I'm hearing from people who report on the game, it was the ugliest Week 1 in some time...
And I suspect not having those four preseason games to get it together, like cars racing around the track a few laps till the green flag, had much to do with it...
