Everyone had the Raiders at 2-0 and the Chargers at 0-2. Everyone expected the Saints to look good and the Texans to look bad (please don’t look up where I am in The Post’s standings from game predictions). It has been a crazy two weeks, and, like always, no one knows what to expect in the NFL.
That brings us to the Jets, who had a strong debut against the Titans and held a 10-point lead against the Packers in Week 2 before things fell apart. The Jets defense looks better than advertised, but there are still questions about this team, like most teams.
The Jets feel like a scrappy bunch that will be able to stay in games. But two games is a small sample size. That doesn’t mean we can’t start looking ahead at the Jets’ schedule. Some of these games look much different than they did in May, when the schedule came out, or even than they did three weeks ago.
