Well at least Rodgers will be closer to his surgeon.
Saleh return? Nah Rodgers revenge for not being picked #1. Also no cross country travel between games so it's the best scenario possible.

Play the best team on the schedule when the Jets will be its healthiest presumably.
I have to agree with TCT on this. Cross country with no game the week before. Start it off right. One of the best teams as we are as healthy as we will probably be all season.
Let’s see where we are right from the start. Love this first game.
The Jets don't have a ton of tough games on the schedule this year. So let's give them one right off the bat.
Is our starting oline going to be ready to start week 1? Maybe
will they have had much playing time together before week 1? Nope
The NFL front office has always had a hardon against the Jets since showing them up in SB III. When Joe Namath said , "Welcome to the American Football League" to Pete Rozelle, it sealed their fate. Just think, when both NY teams needed a GM and went to the league, the guys in Blue got George Young. They gave us Jim Kensil. When it came time to enforce the defending a field goal rule, the only time it got called was against the Jets. And those are just two examples.
If there is a way for the league to screw us, they'll do it.
If they have to do only one thing in the opener to win, it is:
Stop McCaffrey
Later
That’s true, but even if they were all hurt they are better than what we rolled out Week 1 last year.
I cannot understand Goodell? When the,Jets were on Madison Ave., Goodell was an intern for them. Now he wouldn't give them the time of day. C'mon Rog, you weren't privy to much. You probably had to use the bathroom in the lobby. You're trying too hard to act squeaky clean. In psychology it's called overcompensating.
Week one games are always a toss up since the league lessened the OTAs. Upsets are the norm.
It's a blessing to get the toughest game week 1.

I like getting the toughest game out of the way first, conditionally, if the "O" line can jell enough during training camp and pre-season to play well and protect Rogers. There are a lot of new bodies on this "O" line trying to learn to play together in a very short period of time. The saving grace is that most of the new additions are vets. I'm optimistic. I will feel better about it if the reports from camp are all positive.
There might be something to that. And against it. Experience of the OL. Cohesion there yet? True chemistry with QB and receivers.
OTOH, I look at the Jets teams. A few good passes to wonderful receivers. Their running game is worth considering. Their defense?
WOW!
That’s the best and only way to look at it! Jets as a whole and individual players and coaches have ALOT to redeem themselves on with this game here:
1. Show the world that they as a team are foreal and not the SAME OLE JETS!
2. Robert Saleh can prove he’s a better Head Coach than most think with this W.
3. A-Rod out to prove he’s back and ready and also stick it to the 49ers for draft day.
4. AVT, T. Smith, M. Williams, Chuck Clark and M. Moses (if they’re healthy) out to prove their worth.
5. The rookies want to show out!

I doubt the O line sees significant time together.
Between Salehs philosophy of limiting the big guys reps and 3 of 5 coming off surgery.. Hopefully they get more than the one series that last years line got though.
Sadly, probably.
