Jets get Sunday. Giants get Monday. Buffalo gets a breather.

New York’s football weekend came in installments. The Jets lost their Sunday home opener in overtime, the Giants take the Monday night shift, and Buffalo can watch both after banking its second win Thursday. The unbeaten regional trio lasted until Green Bay completed its comeback at MetLife.

Sunday: Packers 20, Jets 17 (OT)

The Jets led the Packers by 10 in the fourth quarter but lost 20–17 in overtime. A failed fourth-and-1, a 63-yard punt return and consecutive sacks on New York’s opening overtime possession shaped the finish. The result sends the Jets to Detroit at 1–1 rather than 2–0.

Sunday’s broadcast also illustrated an important viewing distinction: a FOX listing does not put every afternoon game on every FOX station nationwide. Team viewing pages direct out-of-market viewers to NFL Sunday Ticket, while NFL+ carries local and primetime games on supported mobile devices subject to its restrictions. Future weekly guides will keep separating a network listing from actual local availability.

MetLife ticket and parking links were separate on the Jets’ official schedule. That game has passed, but the planning lesson remains: confirm the event and parking arrangement on the team page rather than assuming a game ticket covers both. Stadium & Street did not quote live inventory or a ticket price.

Monday: Giants at Rams

The Giants visit the Rams at SoFi Stadium on September 21, with kickoff scheduled for 8:15 p.m. Eastern on ESPN and ABC. WFAN is the Giants’ listed radio outlet. Their 28–20 opening win over Dallas is behind them; the next assignment comes on the road.

The official inactive list settled the Giants’ largest pregame question: Deonte Banks will not play because of the calf injury that kept him out of Friday’s practice. Linebacker Micah McFadden is also inactive. With Paulson Adebo already on injured reserve, New York enters the game without two of the cornerbacks who were central to the original Week 2 plan.

Los Angeles has an important absence of its own. Puka Nacua is inactive after being listed with a hip injury, and Jordan Whittington is also out. Nacua caught five passes for 74 yards in the Rams’ opening loss—nearly half of Matthew Stafford’s passing total. That changes the receiving rotation; it does not automatically erase the pressure on a depleted Giants secondary. Davante Adams and the Rams’ remaining receivers still make that matchup the place to watch.

Buffalo has already done its Week 2 work

The Bills beat Detroit 41–31 on September 17, after opening with a 36–31 win at Houston. There is no Buffalo game on Sunday, September 20. Their next scheduled opponent is the Chargers at Highmark Stadium on September 27: 1 p.m. Eastern, FOX.

Buffalo’s two wins have produced 77 points and allowed 62. That is enough offense to make the start entertaining, and enough scoring at the other end to keep the discussion honest. The extra days before the Chargers give Bills fans time to enjoy the wins without confusing a strong September start with a finished season.
