Storylines
The Buffalo Bills
They are once again looking like one of the premier teams in the NFL. The team boasts one of the better rosters as they aim to be a top offense and defense once again. Josh Allen will command the huddle as they strive to win their fourth straight AFC East championship. While they’ve proven to be good enough to make it into the playoffs, they haven’t been able to get over that final hump and this team is looking to make it to the Super Bowl for the first time in 30 years.
The New York Jets
The New York Jets made one of the more notable acquisitions in the offseason by trading for four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers. This puts significant pressure on a team that hasn’t made the playoffs since 2010 and has struggled to achieve a winning record. The improvement of the offense could help them become contenders, as they already had a defense that finished second in points allowed per game.
Prediction
While this could be an exciting game, it might take the Jets a little more time to get this new unit able to build chemistry, and the Bills team already has it. Take Buffalo to get an early-season victory.
