Week nine of the 2021 NFL season kicks off tonight in the weekly Thursday Night Football Game. This week’s TNF features a showdown between two of the less-heralded teams in the NFL right now, both from the AFC. The AFC East’s 3rd place New York Jets will travel to Indiana to take on the AFC South’s 2nd place Indianapolis Colts.
The Jets are managing to hold onto third place only by way of the horrific season being had by our very own Miami Dolphins and their one-win season and via the upset of the week last weekend over the Cincinnati Bengals.
