In the spirit of playoff baseball, Monday’s Week 6 game between the Jets and the Bills is, to borrow a line from Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra, like “Déjà vu all over again.”

Jets-Bills at MetLife Stadium under the Monday night lights last season marked Aaron Rodgers’ debut in green and white, which ended four times in the game when Rodgers tore his left Achilles tendon.

This primetime game will be the fourth meeting between Rodgers and Bills QB Josh Allen, who are each coming off their worst games this season. New York (2-3) and Buffalo (3-2) have each lost two games in a row. Rodgers, who has a career-low 74.9 career passer rating against the Bills, will face a Buffalo defense that will be without DT Ed Oliver and has given up 29 points per game over the past two weeks.

“We all know he’s a Hall of Famer,” Bills HC Sean McDermott said of Rodgers. “A very good player, incredibly smart and gifted. He does a great job on offense. There’s more than the challenge of him just being an elite thrower, it’s the mobility, the mental part of the game and I just so much respect for his game and the things he’s been able to do over the years and how he’s done it.

Allen is the only starting QB in the league who hasn’t thrown an interception, but has thrown six picks in his last four games against the Jets. His 108.9 passer rating on Monday Night Football (min. 3 starts) is the fourth-highest mark in NFL history, but his 83.6 passer rating against the Green & White since 2021 is the lowest of any team where Allen has played at least had to deal with it three times.

“They really play tough football,” Allen said of the Jets’ No. 2 defense. “Their front is very talented and they have a lot of talent on the back end as well. They have a great linebacker duo. They are a tough defense to play against. Number one will set the run and try to commit to that. Then be smart with where football is going and how quickly we can get it out of our hands.”
