Last week a new era began for the Jets. Head coach Robert Saleh and quarterback Zach Wilson made their debuts. And New York prevailed over the Giants in their preseason opener. Of course, the Jets are facing low expectations with the NFL odds for 2021. But at least Jets fans were able to dream of better days ahead. Last week, Green Bay took a sneak peek of a future new era. Quarterback Jordan Love saw extensive playing time for the Packers. Based on Aaron Rodgers’ likely departure at the end of this season, Love is in the air.
