We’re only a few hours away from Thursday Night Football, which is good because even three nights between NFL games is too long for my tastes.

It’s a compelling matchup. Could the Broncos actually have the same record after tonight as the Jets?

They’ll have a better chance because Willis McGahee should be in the lineup. Jason La Canfora reports McGahee will play barring something “unforeseen” happening during pregame.

I’m especially excited because this is the only Thursday Night Football game actually on television in New York, barring something unforeseen like NFL Network being widely available in the city where the NFL is located.

UPDATE: Florio talked about the Broncos running game earlier on PFT Live.
