The Jets accounted for 493 total yards, 28 first downs, to go along with 123 yards rushing and 3 td's by Forte, and were also 62% on third down conversions. Outside of the Bills hitting on two bombs and a costly fumble by the Jets, the game should have been a relative blowout. Add on top that they were on the road on a short week playing a divisional rival. The Jets can play.
Very much agree though that the D-Line we are running out there is too good to have an overall performance like the one we saw last Sunday. I think they will rebound in a very big way against Pit. The interior O-Line just flat out needs to look like a totally different unit than a week ago. I have faith Zeitler can do an about-face from the week one clunker. Bodine? Good lord, I hope so...
Those were the key elements for the Bills.
Blown CB/Safety coverage accounted for at least one of them.
The Jet front rush was getting push against the Bills.
Did they sack Tyrod like Dalton? No... but the pressure was there. He did not have a clean pocket.
I'm just hoping Z and Ced get on the same page for blocking this Sunday.
Bodine... oof. We can only pray.
