NFL Week 1 grades: Jets get an ‘A+’ for winning after Aaron Rodgers injury, Cowboys earn an ‘A’ for big win


Welcome to the Week 1 grades. 

The first week of NFL action is in the books and it ended with a shocker on Monday night in every sense of the word. The first shock came when Aaron Rodgers was knocked out of the game after suffering an ankle injury on New York’s fourth offensive play of the game. The next shock came when the Jets actually managed to beat the Bills, despite losing Rodgers. 

The Jets win capped a surreal 24 hours at MetLife Stadium, a span that also saw the Cowboys beat the Giants 40-0 on Sunday night. The Cowboys and Jets were two of our teams that earned at least an ‘A’ this week. 

We have grades to hand out, so let’s get to them.  (If you’re looking for a deeper dive on the Lions’ shocking 21-20 win over the Chiefs that was played on Thursday, be sure to click here.)
