As a few others have said, it's going to be a mess. And that means it could really go either way, and the better team might not win.
The refs have no preseason either. They always make tons of mistakes, even more than usual, in the preseason. Now they'll be making them in the first few games. The game could hinge on bad calls, or it could hinge on actual penalties. It could swing on silly turnovers (like botched snaps/handoffs), special teams miscues, lots of things.
That's why win or lose we should all be prepared not to read to much into the first game.
