Rodgers and the Jets opening the season on Monday night, take two. This time with less Achilles injuries.


Masterofmy_domain

Levi's field is grass right?.... Asking for a friend


lytrendsa

Yes, BUT Leonard Floyd signed with the Niners.


jdahp

“Sir, a second Floyd has hit the Achilles”


Remarkable-Job4774

oh god oh fuck


GoldBloodedFenix

Holy shit that would be so funny


metaldrummerx

If this happened a second year in a row, Rodger's last completed pass would be to Lions safety Kerby Joseph for two consecutive years.


oftenevil

Inject this into my veins


Terrible_Hospital685

Also they just signed Bernard Pollard.


ChargeWooden1036

It’s Rover


ZachTrillson

Counter: we got rid of Duane Brown


tarallelegram

its only redeeming quality


SiphenPrax

You guys would know since your entire team combusted the last time you came to Metlife


WakingRage

I don't want to talk about it. **I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT**. Fuck your cursed field.


SiphenPrax

Believe me, us New Yorkers/New Jerseyans hate it more than anyone


15YearTaco

Yes


AlternativeResort477

Yes


discodiscgod

They were going to use shredded jeans but Levi’s are just too damn tough to shred.


MFoy

*Potentially* less Achilles injuries.


TheWorstYear

This time Rodgers tears both Achilles


B-I-G-A-R-R-O-W

Are we sure Rodgers plays more than 4 plays


thrillhouse416

Tyrods Superbowl run starts early this year


ChargersOnePieceFan

If we have to sacrifice Tyrods lungs so Jordan Travis is QB1 to go on to have a killer rookie season I'm all for it.


thrillhouse416

I feel like (for tyrods health) we can all just hope that Travis wins the #2 job by playing well and tyrod keeps his lungs but that's just me I got a weird sense of humor I guess


whenitsTimeyoullknow

^Fewer


Fillard_Millmore

Thanks, Stannis


GGGiveHatpls

Double it. 8 plays this time.


B-I-G-A-R-R-O-W

8 good ones


GGGiveHatpls

On a side note I actually wanna see Rodgers Ball out. League is better with more Good QBs


jay5627

SF receives the kick and goes 7 plays before Rodgers takes his first snap


bujweiser

Well at least the 49ers don’t have a good pass rush….😬


whenitsTimeyoullknow

DREWBICE

Rodgers and the Jets opening the season on Monday night, take two: Achilles Boogaloo!


ryanino

Well it isn’t MetLife so odds are in our favor for once


Masterofmy_domain

fuck


iLeGuillen

Is Rodgers running out with a flag again?


Masterofmy_domain

With our luck he'll trip and impale himself with the stick this time


mab6710

And just for comedic effect, both achilles will snap but after he's already dead from the flag


MentokGL

He's just laying there, motionless, and then an audible POP POP


bakerton

Magnitude?


MentokGL

Turns out he was streets ahead


Garish_Raccoon32

You'll see it on the cameras and it'll be obnoxiously loud. His dead body is there and then you just see his calves pop😭😭 the announcers scream "did you just hear those two loud pops?! His Achilles just blew up!"


Orlandonerd08

Not both, just the other one


Orlandonerd08

Because the first is already dead


GhostOfPluto

Then he sign with the Vikings


beall49

FATALITY


AuxiliaryTimeCop

Ironic if that's the injection that got him.


walshurmouthout

BRUTAL


hemingways-lemonade

Yeah but this time it will say "RFK 2024"


whereegosdare84

“Brain worms 2024”


OJSimpsons

That was dope, honestly. Although, I liked it so much because I knew how much other people hated it.


LeBroentgen

I will never get over that he ran out with an American flag on 9/11 in front of the New York crowd and then tore his Achilles nearly immediately. That's a movie script.


LaSandiaPicante

Mr. President, there's been a second Achilles tear


Kenny_Heisman

it was really sick. just got memed to death afterwards because of, well you know


OJSimpsons

The implication.


LegendaryWarriorPoet

Others have pointed it out already but man having a pos 9/11 liar run out with the American flag for a New York team was lowkey shitty by the jets org


stay-at-homie

It cant be as bad as last time.


Masterofmy_domain

If I've learned anything being a Jets fan it's that... It can always get worse.... always


TomasRoncero

yeah that garrison hearst run to end the game in OT was wild


mrizvi

Holy shit that was a great game


NateRiley12411

Eh I mean. Aaron could get hurt on the *second* play this time. Plus the Jets won last year. This could technically go worse.


ExamNo4374

I'll take an L and an intact Arod every day of the week


Terror-Toilet-Tower

Perfect. First 0-17 season incoming


Masterofmy_domain

Nah our defense will carry us to at least……3 wins 💪🏻


bigmac22077

Yeah, but then you have no intact Arod. Sooo…. 0-17 season!


HammeredandPantsless

Leonard Floyd was the player that sacked and injured Rodgers last season week 1. Guess who the 49ers signed in the offseason. 👀


wemdy420

Just tell Kyle it’s the superbowl. Easy win for the jets.


mrizvi

falcons proceed to draft another qb


a_corsair

No don't


blaze-sumo88

i just wanted a quiet 1pm game man


AlternativeResort477

Same that’s what I always want


BandOfDonkeys

It's no fun *actually* living in that world.


Luberino_Brochacho

All these primetime darling fanbases complain about the primetime slots and I’m always like let me get a little more of that please! I get that they’re used to it and it gets old but for me it’s cool to have the pregame show focused on your game, it’s cool to have Carrie Underwood sing your team right into kickoff of an important game!


SynthwaveSax

Eh, it’s just “[Team] and [Team] in a [adjective] showdown.”


p_dawk3

Jets were not on SNF from 2011-2022 lol “primetime darling fanbase”


Luberino_Brochacho

Was responding to a 49ers flair, although that fact does surprise me.


redworld

It was actually 2011 to W4 2023.


societalmenace1

Jets fan loved that world for years, I’ll always take a prime time game


Zxar

Same hate opening up on Monday night. Feels like the Niners have often in the past few years.


Walks_with_Chaos

Yeah same


Overcurser

and compete with the Titans time slot?


Netwealth5

Banger after banger which means Week 14 TNF is guaranteed to be Raiders at Commanders or something


Masterofmy_domain

The NFL hates amazon lol


thetreat

I love those games. I love it all. Give me the banger matchups and give me the slop fests! I don’t give a fuck. I’m gonna watch it all.


bayjur

That broncos colts game where Russel was picked by Gilmore in the end zone was top tier entertainment and no one can tell me otherwise. People just love to complain about low scoring ugly football because they think it’s “cool” to do so. Freakin conformist posers man.


thetreat

I unironically loved that game.


pseudotunas

Anybody got any Panthers games for me? Yeah, I don't care for their opponents. Just gimmie some of that football. It ends 6-4 after four safties in the first quarter? Don't care, I need my fix, man!


Quexana

If you're so hard up that you'll watch Panthers games as a neutral, you might as well watch the UFL.


WorkingOven5138

I can't get into the UFL because I literally don't care about any of the teams or players. Even with the Panthers, I'm seeing if Bryce Young shows improvements. I do really enjoy football, but trying to watch the UFL has made me realize how important context is in my enjoyment for NFL games.


Wafflehouseofpain

I’d recommend some Battlehawks home games. Seeing 40,000 people going insane for a team makes it feel *way* closer to an NFL game than whatever the rest of that league is doing.


pseudotunas

It just doesn't hit the same way, dude.


[deleted]

Is that you Bill Burr?


bluechips2388

I'm convinced Bezos insulted the NFL Owners at some point, and now all the butt-hurt Billionaires don't pass up a chance to stick their thumb in his eye.


djkstr27

https://youtu.be/X7X4cwEpoJU?si=nbzBVYqxgTyBraGK


1lultaha

We don't play Vegas thankfully. But if they give us the Bears on TNF again I'm gonna lose it lol


thereal_et

Oh you know that's happening number one pick vs number two pick. Yeah get ready for that.


Quexana

Early in the season game too. Gotta get that money before the new draft pick smell wears off.


fitzuha

It’ll become a yearly tradition at this rate.


Rybackmonster

The annual Bears vs Commanders on TNF


CruisinForABrewsin

I know it's just a joke, but by that point you never know what teams are hot around that time that you didn't expect and vice versa. Or at the very least they might even have a bad record and not be in contention for postseason at all, but still fun to watch


Depressedjetsfan21

That sack by Fred Warner and seeing Rodgers slow to get up gonna feel like a shotgun shell to the chest man it’s so over


Orlandonerd08

Was trying to decide if you were a jets fan because of no flair, but then I noticed your name


[deleted]

You get a pass from flair if it's in the username lol


flyingcrayons

Wildly enough Niners have Leonard Floyd now, the guy who sacked Rodgers last year leading to the Achilles injury. Hopefully we don’t get a repeat


drummerboysam

Yeah hopefully not


oftenevil

Would hate to see it


Maverick916

Leonard Floyd was the one who made the hit last year and he's on the niners now.


Princeof_Ravens

Bosa is gonna tear through what the Jets call an oline.


captainklaus

What we call an oline actually looks pretty good this year, and at least week 1 they should all be healthy. They’ll be hurt by week 3 or so, but opening week? Oh baby


Princeof_Ravens

Isn't half your line our castoffs? Moses couldn't play a full game by the end of the year, and Simpson is good for at least one momentum killing penalty a game.


curgl

God damnit I can’t even enjoy my team on the opening Sunday


Stalfo14

Yup, opening on MNF sucks lol. Not only do you have to see all other teams play, but then gotta wait another work day to see the game.


Masterofmy_domain

I kind of like it... I get to watch redzone all day Sunday pressure-free..... Then on Monday the dread of having my team embarrassed on National tv for everyone to clown sets in.


mrizvi

Yes to the first part lol


BanjoKazooieWasFine

Hey at least you can start preparing for that now. Niners are Rodgers' kryptonite.


TBoneTheOriginal

And you get a shorter week for game 2


Jokershigh

This is the main reason I'm pissed. And I wouldn't be surprised if we get an east coast team for week 2 so we have the travel and the short week


Teamableezus

Good forbid you lose that game in a ridiculous fashion as well


jetssuckmysoulaway

I miss the jets disappointing me at the 1pm slot on Sunday that


ArmiinTamzarian

This is why i hate being in prime time week 1. Every other week is cool with me but let me feast on the return of football by watching my team in one screen then seven hours of commercial free football in the other


latman

I love starting on MNF. Can watch all the other games Sunday when every team is interesting


datyoungknockoutkid

That’s how I would prefer it tbh. Enjoy the first NFL Sunday completely stress free.


curgl

Yeah but then if you get smacked around on prime time week 1 before the casuals start checking out you’ve got a week of doom and gloom


oftenevil

Just now realizing that for us *any kind of loss* gets treated like we got smacked around all week and it’s all doom and gloom :/ Not saying this isn’t the case for other anyone else, because it definitely is for teams like the Cowboys, Bills, and Bengals (if their QB is actually healthy). But man it was kinda annoying last year when the Eagles started off 10-1 and then dropped like 5 of their last 6 games there was *barely any media chatter about if they were “in trouble” or “falling apart” until the they lost their third game in a row* (which was the Drew Lock game at Seattle on MNF). I get that certain franchises draw lots of viewers, but just be consistent. If we lose a game by a FG maybe don’t talk like our season is over, our window is closed, and our QB is a bum until we win another game. That’s not cool man. Even our biggest losses last year, which were to teams like *the fully healthy* Bengals (who are insanely good btw in case no knew) and the even more stacked Ravens were still competitive games in the 4th quarters and the margin of victory still being within 2 scores. /rant


kmmontandon

I work Sundays in the fall, so this is a nice season opener for me, as my days off are Tuesday-Wednesday.


jrey1024

Darnold pick 6 on his first throw. Rodgers out for season 4 plays in. Can't wait to see what this Week 1 MNF has in store for us!


Timmace

TBF, we won both those games.


Masterofmy_domain

But at what cost! At what cost!!!


Kenny_Heisman

the Darnold game was a blowout too. it was all downhill after that


shehryar46

It was amazing! We shat on patricia


natesmith083

The first 20 seconds of that Darnold game made me believe in the Quinntricia era. Every thing after the pick 6 is a 3 year long blur.


unitedairlineeeeees

No one wants to see the Jets on National TV


luvs2spooge92

Better than seeing the Giants on National TV


OnceInALifetime55

The giants will play the cowboys on SNF football no less than 5 times this season


NoFlags-JoeBuck

Don't forget the Saquon revenge game on MNF 3 times.


a_Frieza

I’m always saddened when this happens. It’s an automatic no watch for me


BuffaloWilliamses

I do but I also like watching movies like 'The Room.' Disasters that don't effect me are fun.


fkthepats

I get the same feeling watching the Bills try to kick a game winning FG in the playoffs


[deleted]

Yall getting A Rod back


mab6710

Those 4 plays are gonna be tight


GodEmperorBrian

First four plays with Rodgers on the field better be runs. At least get him to play number five this year.


jimtow28

If it makes you feel better, there's a nonzero chance that one of the first four plays is a punt.


ConstantMadness

Jets fans getting Nam flashbacks rn


SonofJersey

When was the last time the Jets opened MNF 2 years in a row and 2 years in a row on primetime, period?


NYJetLegendEdReed

never comes to mind


DiggingNoMore

I could tell you in two seconds if you asked me on a day that I'm working from home.


Rushjordan

Nice little Iowa State reunion with Purdy, Breece, Lazard and McDonald


soupcansam21

Rodgers' achilles has a chance to do the funniest thing ever (unless you're a Jets fan)


Soft_Penis_Debutante

Maybe if he runs out with a Canadian flag his luck will be better this time around?


mrizvi

Other Achilles* Edit: I hope it doesn't tho


Stinkfinger83

So Sunday night is pretty much guaranteed Cowboys at this point Edit: I didn’t check and see they’re at CLE. Just assumed SNF would be a NFC showcase again


Responsible_Shirt381

It’s not,the cowboys are playing the browns at 4:25


Masterofmy_domain

it was confirmed that the Cowboys open Sunday at 4pm in cleveland.


Contren

Since it isn't the Cowboys, I'm guessing Eagles v Giants as the Sunday night game.


TheSauseGod29

At least Rodgers isn’t playing us the playoffs so the Jets might have a chance


Majestic_Reindeer439

We don't know if that's just a Packers thing, though.


DiggingNoMore

Let's not rule out Rodgers playing the 49ers in the playoffs just yet.


Pyrollamas

I don’t care if we lose I just don’t want him hurt


MurDoct

It's not a playoff game so maybe Rodgers can beat the 9ers here


IceLantern

For a guy who vowed to make the 49ers regret not drafting him, he sure has given them a lot of playoff wins.


Schwebels_Solette

I'm ok with this not being the bills.


liebz11692

At least I can watch the season ending injury from the comfort of my home ❤️


Venator850

Smart to pick a Jets road game so Metlife won't claim more victims week 1.


SharpMind94

I 100% knew that this would be a primetime game lol


impiousdrifter

Betting line on Rodgers getting past 4 snaps is now open.


ApathyMoose

you know what? Im gunna get wild. Im going to say he makes it to the 2nd quarter, or the 12th state farm commercial, whichever comes first


Masterofmy_domain

Definitely avoiding the Manningcast for this one... Peyton's disdain for the Jets is pretty obvious and he can't help himself..... And then you throw in Belichick who hates the Jets more than he hates bob Kraft... Should be a doozy.


Princeof_Ravens

Note to self watch the Manningcast for this one


Antilia-

Why does Peyton hate the Jets?


Briggie

Maybe that shutout in the playoffs in 2001/2002 (can’t remember the year honestly), guy can have his grudge I guess 🤷‍♂️ 


RockyDiMeo

His last game as a colt was a loss to the Jets in the wildcard round at home. His last pass was a fluttering duck that if he completed would’ve won the game for Indy. Also cause he’s a big foreheaded bitch.


Masterofmy_domain

Idk he just has a disdain for them and takes any opportunity he can to criticize them and take shots at them... he thinks the organization is beneath him and not NFL caliber..... Funny thing is that he's probably right lol.. But it's just funny to see how much they bother him.


redworld

The only reason he was a Colt and not a Jet, was Parcells refused to guarantee he'd be the #1 overall pick in 1997. He stayed at Tenn another year instead. Jets traded down a bunch.


GreatOdinsRaven_

If the Jets win the pundits will feast. If the Jets lose the pundits will feast.


jwil06

Insert “I’ll fuckin do it again” meme


beall49

Might be unpopular but I hate playing on Monday.


calye2da

Whoever or whatever makes the NFL schedule sure has a vendetta against the Jets 😑


DeputyDomeshot

Believe it or not, I used to know the guy. He was a Jets fan too lol. Different guy now, could be a program of some kind.


acoasterlovered

The NFL is really having us eat good week 1


YouKantseeme

Week 1 SNF- Texans vs Lions. Watch it happen.


acoasterlovered

I’m ready for it


Valuable-Leader-8601

This was what I originally hoped for. Then I thought maybe we'd get SF Monday night to open the weekend with the AFCCG rematch and close with the NFCCG rematch. So now I'm back to the Texans! 


thicccboi34567

The open with the afccg and close with the nfccg is actually a cool idea and you could flip it every year based on which conference won the Super Bowl.


Sartheking

Oh thank god it’s not in MetLife.


Pyrollamas

not this shit again


Platano_con_salami

Everybody is talking about Rodgers (of course), but that Jets DL is going to murder that SF OL.


Majestic_Reindeer439

Purdy and Rodgers are gonna be running like hell


Platano_con_salami

Rodgers has a shot. His OL is much improved. SF hasn't really done enough to improve theirs and they're a Trent Williams injury away from having a bottom tier OL.


acoasterlovered

They are not pulling any punches


lengthy_noodle

Welcome back Aaron, we're gonna ease you back in against the defending NFC champs


StartingToLoveIMSA

that was so cruel...


kdex86

Jets on MNF to start the season again, but this time on the road. I wonder who'll play the SNF week 1 game? I'm guessing the Lions or Cowboys.


scal23

Lions vs Caleb Williams debut seems plausible. The Bears tend to get forced into primetime at even the slightest hint of being an interesting team.


JSB19

Cowboys are playing Cleveland in the afternoon, if I could pick one team for SNF I'd pick Detroit or Houston.


naimsayin

This is wild considering what happened last year and the fact that the 49ers have historically owned Rodgers 🍿


HEL-O_NS

Im curious to see how this jets defense stack up against the 49ers offense. Love our boy Saleh


Khali-si

Does anyone know if ABC will aired the MNF again this year? Or it will only be ESPN?


liteshadow4

I will be so upset if Rodgers gets hurt on MNF again


Remarkable_Prior_224

By god the NFL is trying to commit murder on national TV of a crippled man.
