Welcome to Sunday Night Football
Sunday Night Football is back this week featuring the reported return of Russell Wilson to a starting line up. All Sunday Night Football games kick off at 8:20 ET on NBC.
As always in our brave new world of expansive sports gambling, it is now easier to bet on games than to watch them. You can catch current odds on all NFL games for Week 2 here on FanDuel.
As for the game tonight, Wilson returning from injury for the Pittsburgh Steelers is set to face Haason Reddick returning from his contract hold out for the New York Jets. Both teams have struggled at times this season, with the Steelers seeing more success through those struggles than the Jets while Pittsburgh was in the hands of Justin Fields. Fields is now benched and the team is being asked to follow a quarterback in Russell Wilson who is now years removed from a successful season.
The Jets, meanwhile, have lost a lot of close games. They are adding pieces and, judging by how they fought in a 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills game, are buying into what interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich is selling. That’s why I’m picking the New York Jets tonight. Though mostly it’s the no faith in Wilson thing.
As always, use this space to talk about the action as it unfolds.
You know the drill.
This is now an open thread!
