CAN JETS AND GIANTS REMAIN UNBEATEN AFTER WEEK 2 TEST
Week 2 is here, and both New York football teams face major tests.
The Jets open the home portion of their schedule Sunday at 1:00 against the Green Bay Packers, looking to build on an impressive Week 1 victory and move to 2-0. Can Geno Smith manage the game, Breece Hall establish the run and the Jets defense keep Jordan Love from creating explosive plays?
Then Monday night, the Giants travel to Los Angeles to face the Rams in primetime. Can the Giants defense make Matthew Stafford uncomfortable? Can New York avoid costly penalties and turnovers? And can the Giants offense protect its quarterback against a dangerous Rams front?
Bob Walters breaks down both matchups, gives the biggest keys to victory and makes his Week 2 predictions.
