NFL Week 2 is ready to bring another exciting week of action as teams look to build on a nice first week or forget a disappointing season opener. Every single game matters, and there are some matchups that we have to circle. The big matchup is Sunday Night Football. The Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens are squaring off. Patrick Mahomes vs. Lamar Jackson is always exciting, but these two quarterbacks, along with their supporting cast, have the chance to be explosive. Anytime these two teams play against one another, it’s a chance for something incredible to happen.
Cowboys vs. Bengals: High-Octane Offenses Clash
The other exciting matchup features the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals. Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb have the potential to prove lethal; however, Joe Burrow and a fast-paced offense will not be left in the dust if both offenses choose to go out and score at will. If this ends up being a head-to-head battle, it will simply be a matter of whose offense can establish itself first.
AFC East Rivalry: Bills vs. Jets
In the AFC East, the Buffalo Bills host the New York Jets. Josh Allen will aim for a cleaner performance after a shaky start, while the Jets’ young roster is hungry to make a statement. Division games are always unpredictable, making this one especially intriguing.
NFC West Clash: 49ers vs. Rams
Over in the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers take on the Los Angeles Rams. The 49ers’ defense remains one of the toughest in the league, but Matthew Stafford and the Rams have the tools to create problems. With division stakes already high, this matchup could shape the race later in the season.
Young Quarterbacks in Focus: Packers vs. Falcons
Another game to watch will be the Green Bay Packers vs. the Atlanta Falcons. Jordan Love is beginning to find his footing as the leader of Green Bay. Meanwhile, the Falcons are trying to build confidence around their young offensive group.
