The image of Aaron Rodgers running out of the tunnel carrying an American flag has served as a reminder of what might have been for the Jets in 2023.
On Thursday night, Rodgers runs out of that tunnel again, and it’s an emblem of what is likely to be in 2024.
The 1-1 Jets play their home opener against the Patriots and MetLife Stadium must be electric because it was a yr ago when Rodgers emerged and the stadium was as loud because it’s ever been at a Jets game.
The passion only lasted 4 plays that night. This time, the Jets are hoping for a full Rodgers experience in front of the house fans.
“I be ok with it,” Rodgers said. “It’s been an extended time since I took the sphere at Jetlife, so there will likely be loads of emotions needless to say, but we’re thankfully into our third game of the season, played two full games, body feels good, about pretty much as good as it could possibly on a brief week, but it surely’ll be fun to be on the market with the gang, and night games, I really like night games, so, enthusiastic about it.”
The Jets enter this game off of two uneven performances to begin the season.
They weren’t sharp against the Titans on Sunday, but played higher within the second half and escaped with their first victory of the season.
They are going to now try to get to 2-1 to begin a season for the primary time since 2015.
The Patriots (1-1) come into this game playing higher than people projected. They shocked the Bengals in Week 1 and lost in additional time to the Seahawks last week.
That is the primary time the Jets are facing the Patriots without Bill Belichick coaching them since 1999, so this can have a unique feel with Jerod Mayo now calling the shots.
The Jets snapped a 15-game losing streak to the Patriots in last yr’s season finale, putting to bed a storyline that had bothered them for years.
That is the third game in 11 days for the Jets, but they need to get a lift from a raucous MetLife crowd.
“I hope it’s off the chain,” coach Robert Saleh said. “I mean, it’s our home opener coming on a Thursday. I do know our fans are among the most passionate fans in all football. Really looking forward to the atmosphere on Thursday night.”
