The Buffalo Bills were able to come away with their fourth straight win in spite of an ugly second half by the offense. The Bills go on the road now to face a New York Jets team that is looking to bounce back from a lackluster performance of their own against the New England Patriots.

This is going to be a key divisional matchup as both teams are going to want to improve their record within the division. For the Buffalo Bills, these are the key players worth watching and will likely play a big role in the outcome on Sunday.

Josh Allen

This season, Josh Allen has been one of the best quarterbacks in the league almost on a weekly basis. However, this past week against the Green Bay Packers he had some uncharacteristic bad plays.

He finished the game completing only 52% of his passes (season-low) for 218 passing yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. The second interception in particular was concerning as Allen would throw in the red zone and cost the Bills at least three points.

These are the types of throws that Josh Allen makes because he doesn’t want to give up on a play but also one where it would just be better to throw it away and settle for the field goal.

The Jets are only allowing 203.1 yards per game through the air, which is the 10th lowest in the league. It will be a challenge for Allen but he should be able to get back on track.
