Summary

The NFL is back, and Sunday’s action-packed slate of games didn’t disappoint: but tonight, it’s time for the most anticipated matchup of Week 1: Bills at Jets on Monday Night Football. After a hype-filled offseason, we’ll finally get to see if future Hall of Fame QB Aaron Rodgers can deliver hope for a playoffs-starved Jets fanbase. And for Josh Allen and the Bills - who have claimed the AFC East crown for the past three seasons - questions are swirling around how much longer their championship window remains open. So before you tune in to Joe Buck and Troy Aikman tonight, we called up ESPN NFL Nation reporters Rich Cimini and Alaina Getzenberg – who each cover the Jets and Bills, respectively – to get a sense of where these two AFC East rivals are, and what we can expect to see from them after the kickoff.
