It’s game day and fans will be able to see the Buffalo Bills take on the New (Jersey) York Jets live from MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The Bills come into this game set to defend their 1-0 record while the Jets are looking to bounce back from their heart breaking loss against the Steelers last week.
The Jets and Bills always have physical matchups and quite frankly, the Jets know how to make life harder for the Bills. While Buffalo has had the Jets’ number in recent memory, the Bills always seem to struggle a bit against the Jets.
There’s no question that the Bills’ offense is nearly unstoppable when Josh Allen is the one under center, but he needs more help from the defense and not give up 40+ points again. That Week 1 performance against the Ravens by Buffalo’s defense was just down right ridiculous. That cannot happen again against the Jets.
As for the Jets, their defense isn’t much better either. They allowed 34 points against Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers. Now they have a major challenge of trying to stop Josh Allen…yeah, good luck with that.
Can Bills leave New Jersey with a win?
Can the Bills get to 2-0? Absolutely, no questions asked. However, we know that the NFL is a week-to-week schedule and anything can happen once the clock starts running. We have seen upsets happen and it’s no longer uncommon. Not to mention, with this being a division game, it is a tougher atmosphere and one big mistake could cost a team the win.
The good news is that the Bills have played the Jets well and while they haven’t always won big on them, they do what they need to do for a win. That’s the case this Sunday as the Bills take the victory and go back to the other side of New York State with a win and 2-0 record.
