The game will be played in Broadway’s shadow (sort of) so it’s understandable the marquee for the Buffalo Bills game against the New York Jets Monday night will light the names of Josh Allen and Aaron Rodgers.
Allen vs. Rodgers!
That’s the show.
Except for Allen that’s not really what this game is about. For the Bills quarterback, this production is more about him against a very good defense.
A defense that believes it can be generational.
A defense that has given him fits in the recent past.

Luka Dončić was not pleased with the officiating in Slovenia’s 100–89 quarterfinal loss to Canada in the FIBA World Cup on Wednesday morning.
Following the loss, the Mavericks star did not hold back on his comments toward officials, specifically regarding the play of Canadian star Dillon Brooks. While Brooks is known for his physical style of play and his growing role as the NBA’s ultimate antagonist, Dončić believes some of Brooks’s fouls in the game were uncalled for.

When is the Dak Prescott extension coming? If the rebuild around Matthew Stafford fails to make big progress, does he stick around?

When Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson was with the Seahawks, he made his name in a fashion rarely seen in football: geniality. He and easygoing coach Pete Carroll made for a perfect match as Wilson won a Super Bowl in 2013 and an NFC title a year later.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the deal. Bosa is now expected to play the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

While he was short on details, Raiders coach Josh McDaniels labeled Chandler Jones’ absence a “private matter” a day after the defensive end’s tirade on Twitter aimed at the team.

Chris Jones said he still hopes to agree to a new deal with the Chiefs and indicated he could play in the season opener.

At first, it was social media fodder. Now it’s looking like a deep-seated problem between the Las Vegas Raiders and four-time Pro Bowl DE Chandler Jones.
Jones was absent from Raiders practice on Wednesday, days before their season debut against the Chargers.
Las Vegas head coach Josh McDaniels said Jones is out due to a “private matter,” even if Jones’ rant against the team on Tuesday tells a different story.
“It’s a personal situation and a private matter,” McDaniels told the media (via NFL.com). “We have dealt with it, and I am not going to talk about it.
