Both defenses look good.

Hope Aaron's injury isn't too serious

I wouldn’t mind if the Jets somehow pulled this out.

All the AFC faves with an L.

Achilles injuries are awful.
^^^^
That said, an ankle injury that keeps him out til week 5 ( after the Chiefs travel to NY ) would be fine.

Multiple penalties could (should?) have been called on that return (including a block in the back/"blind side block" and a trip/"leg whip"?) but hey, I'm happy for Jets fans and Bills haters that the refs "let them play".

Confirmed. Rodgers done.
Tom Brady come on down!?!?
Are you the next contestant on who wants to be a Jets QB?

As a Garrett Wilson owner, go trade for Jameis.
He could probably be had for a 5th rounder.

I feel your pain, but how could they not, especially after getting the ___+ sued out of them recently?

...The rule all but eliminated the advantage of using "pop-up" kicks short of the goal line, which had grown in popularity as a strategy for pinning teams close to their goal line. That approach had increased the total number of returns during the past two seasons, causing a corresponding rise in concussions on the play.

Noting that concussions occur at a higher rate on kickoffs than any other play, the NFL's competition committee decided to further incentivize teams to avoid returns, at least for this season...

So, how many millions per minute are the Jets paying A-Aron for his 1 series?

"In terms of actual game time, Rodgers played for a total of 1 minute and 34 seconds before the clock was stopped following his injury, or 94 seconds total. That means he will be paid about $399,000 per second of game time he saw, or nearly $24 million for that first minute alone."

But they forgot the discount double check. I am sure State Farm will make good on a substantial rebate.
