SE PA
As tntfarm suggested, aerial seeding is an option. Less consistant than a drill but some take that risk when conditions are moist. For sure, cereal rye and triticale the end of Sep. Could consider hairy vetch, crimson clover, or austrian winter pea but that's getting late. If you are in the snow belt, that is in your favor for winter survival of the legumes. Another thing to consider would be to plant a week to 10 day shorter hybrid and get it off the middle of Sep. There are indeed some good corn hybrids and bean varieties in your area that have shown promise for this management strategy.
