The Cowboys have no shortage of enticing storylines heading into their week two home opener against the New York Jets. Both teams started the season in primetime, with the Cowboys leaning on their defense and special teams to blank the Giants 40-0. The Jets saw Aaron Rodgers’ much-anticipated Monday night debut against the Bills end with an Achilles injury before he ever completed a pass, but also saw their defense keep them in the contest long enough to win on an overtime punt return touchdown.
Even if the Mike McCarthy vs. Aaron Rodgers rematch headline is scratched come Sunday, these are two teams riding high with confidence instilled by their head coaches, with Robert Saleh having the Jets prepared to rally around Zach Wilson on the fly to earn an emotional home win.
