The New York Jets will try again to win their first game of the season on Sunday when they host the Carolina Panthers at 1 p.m. ET at MetLife Stadium. New York comes into this game trying to avoid the third 0-7 start to the season in team history.
The hope is that the Jets can finally snare that elusive victory against what is perceived to be a beatable opponent. But Carolina isn’t going to let a win be pried away easily. The Panthers have actually won two straight games heading into NFL Week 7 .
It will also be tougher to beat any opponent without the injured Garrett Wilson, who is out for Week 7 with a knee injury. New York’s offense ranks 29th in the NFL and now looks even weaker without its best player.
