3) Tackling

When New York Jets running backs Bilal Powell and Matt Forte ran the ball on Thursday night, it just seemed like it was missed tackle after missed tackle for the Bills.

Powell had 9 carries for 74-yards and his longest was a 51-yard scamper, while Forte had 14 carries for 77-yards and 2 touchdowns. The Jets finished with 194-yards on the ground and 137-yards through the air.

Throughout the game, the Bills had Jets players wrapped up it seemed but would let them slip away. Ultimately the Bills defensive players just couldn’t bring them down when it mattered most. Resulting in the embarrassing performance.
