The Jets played one primetime game in 2022. And scholars will debate whether it even counts as one. There is not much prestige in playing the Jaguars on Thursday night in a monsoon three days before Christmas, you know.
But this season? Gang Green will likely play the maximum five primetime game now that Aaron Rodgers is officially in the fold. And ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported they could even get six, presumably with a late-season schedule flex somewhere. Plus they should play several national games in the late Sunday afternoon window.
Some thoughts:
Jets at Cowboys should be the Sunday Night Football season opener.
