Will this be the Bills year? No seriously. Will THIS finally be THEIR year? Head coach Sean McDermott and quarterback Josh Allen would really like to know as would ALL of Bills Mafia.
This Bills’ core has already checked a lot of boxes on the “Wow it’s been a while since …” list. In 2020, they won the team’s first playoff game since 1995. In that same year, they made it to their first AFC Championship game since 1993. Now, they are just the second group in the Bills’ 64 seasons to post double-digit wins in four straight years. They have also put up top offensive and defensive rankings in multiple seasons, yet the franchise’s first Super Bowl championship remains elusive.
Now Josh Allen, a quarterback who consistently works his way into the MVP conversation, leads his Bills into another season. Allen, along with wideout Stefon Diggs and tight ends Dawson Knox and rookie first-rounder Dalton Kincaid, will try to get this team over the hump.
The Jets have posted seven straight losing seasons and have missed the playoffs each of the last 12 years. Over that span, New York has made head coaching changes and tried quarterbacks both young and old. Robert Saleh is their third since Rex Ryan coached the team to an AFC Championship game in 2010, while QBs like Ryan Fitzpatrick, Joe Flacco, Josh McCown, Sam Dornald and Zach Wilson have tried to be “the guy.” Now enter future Hall of Famer and four-time MVP, Aaron Rodgers for his crack at changing the Jets’ fortune.
Though the uniform is different, Rodgers has familiar faces around him. The Jets brought in Nathaniel Hackett to be their offensive coordinator, who worked with Rodgers in the same capacity for three seasons in Green Bay — including 2020, when the Packers led the NFL in scoring with 31.8 points per game. Also, wide receivers Randall Cobb and Allen Lazard will join forces with Rodgers again. For Cobb, it will be his 12th season catching passes from Rodgers.
Outside of any “Cheese Head” connection, the Jets are looking for last year’s defensive rookie of the year and Pro Bowler Sauce Gardner to build off the great start to his career. Last year’s fourth overall pick went on to win Defensive Rookie of the Year honors as well as receive a Pro Bowl and All-Pro nod. That’s a high bar for the next Jets defensive rookie, who just so happens to be defensive end Will McDonald. General Manager Joe Douglas took McDonald with the 15th overall pick in April’s draft out of Iowa State.
According to DraftKings the Jets are still 2.5-point underdogs against the Bills. The over/under is 45.5.
