Report: Jets will open on Sunday Night Football against Cowboys

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on April 19, 2011, 4:09 PM EDT


A New York team will be playing on Sunday Night Football on the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, but the Giants and Jets won’t be facing each other, as rumored.

Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports the Jets will host the Cowboys in Week One in primetime to kick off their season.

The Giants’ opener remains unknown. Mehta reveals a bit more of the Jets’ early schedule: Week Two against the Jaguars, followed by three straight road games: Oakland, Baltimore, and New England. The Jets will have a Week Eight bye, and they’ll finish the season in Miami.

Let the Rex Ryan-Rob Ryan trash talking begin. (Or at least imagine it would begin if the league wasn’t in a senseless lockout.

Tough opener. Both the team and the situation of the anniversary of 9-11.

I'd be impressed if we were able to go up there and win that game.

At least we are going there with JG.

If we had to go there with Wade your score probably would have been accurate.

If we went there with Wade we'd fail to match their intensity and show no heart when we fell behind a couple of scores.

With Garrett we'll at least be prepared.

The NFL loves to give us tough openers.

At least it seems that way to me.

Exactly. I just hope we can get a TC in on time before the season starts.

It could be the preview of the Super Bowl.

Hate to say it, but no way the Cowboys win that game on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 IN NEW YORK. With all the pageantry going on, the refs will see to that. They need a foil for this game and who better than the Cowboys fit that bill?
