Week 2 of the NFL season might not feature a ton of must-watch games, especially after an exciting debut to the 2017 schedule of games.

But this weekend’s action does offer a good number of quarterbacking battles fans will want to watch on Sunday.

Monday too. Yes, the Detroit Lions and New York Giants are on this list for Monday Night Football.
