Jets vs. Bills: AFC East Defensive Battle
The Jets and Bills will face off on Monday Night Football in a matchup of two of the top defenses in the NFL. The Jets allowed the second-fewest points per game (18.6) in 2022, while the Bills allowed the fourth-fewest (19.1). Their two games last season were both low-scoring affairs, with the Bills winning 20-12 in Buffalo and the Jets winning 20-17 in New York.
The Bills are coming into the game with a chip on their shoulder. They feel like they are being disrespected, and they will be motivated to prove their doubters wrong. The Jets, meanwhile, are playing their first game with Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback. Rodgers is a future Hall of Famer, and he has the potential to take the Jets’ offense to new heights.
The keys to the game will be if the Bills can give the Jets’ OL problems and get pressure on Rodgers and if the Jets can get a spy on Allen to limit his mobile playmaking ability. The game is shaping up to be a close one. The game will likely come down to which team can make the fewest mistakes.
