‘While the struggles Allen endured against the Jets stand out above the other challenges the team faced throughout the course of the game, there is no denying that Buffalo has a dearth of capable talent at the wide receiver position. When the Jets took Diggs away during the second half by using more two-high safety looks, the Bills’ passing game shut down.’

Sullivan: The Bills aren’t in panic mode, but loss to Jets casts doubt
‘Sure, Allen is still a freak of nature who rushed for 86 yards and two TDs. But we were supposed to be past the point where his raw running ability covered up for his poor decision-making in the passing game, what he called “brain farts”.’
Sabato: Josh Allen played poorly again, but the Bills can provide more help
‘Against the Jets, the Bills had seven called runs for 23 yards. Granted they only had 56 plays in the game, but they have invested too much capital in running backs for Allen to carry the ball more than anyone else, something he did for the fourth time this season.’
NFL Sunday takeaways: Bills ought not panic after listless loss to the Jets
‘True, though he did run in both of Buffalo’s touchdowns, Allen did throw two fairly gruesome interceptions.’

Josh Allen’s elbow is bigger concern for Bills than 0-2 AFC East record | Opinion
‘The team that looked so invincible against the defending champion Rams in the season opener and dominant in five of their first six games – including wins over the Chiefs, Ravens and Titans in the AFC playoff mix – has hit a bit of a rough patch.’
Wilson, Jets’ Defense Stun Allen, Bills In 20-17 Victory
‘But the defense did its job against Allen, intercepting him twice and sacking him five times. Allen was 18 of 34 for 205 yards — held without a TD pass for the first time since Week 17 of last season against Atlanta — and the INTs by Gardner and Jordan Whitehead.’
Banged-Up Allen Shoulders Loss After Bills Fall To Jets
‘Allen was intercepted twice and sacked five times. He finished 18 of 34 for 205 yards and was held without a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 17 of last season against Atlanta.’
Bills-Jets Game Delayed Briefly By Camera Malfunction
‘Midway through the third quarter Sunday at MetLife Stadium and the Bills leading 14-10, a SkyCam camera whirled out of control and hovered low over midfield — delaying the play on the field for 12 minutes.’
Jets pull off upset over Bills, force Josh Allen to throw two interceptions
‘The Jets’ defense gave the Bills problems all day, and Allen, who threw two interceptions last week, did the same thing against this unit. The Bills’ first drive of the game was going so well, after a botched kickoff gave them perfect field position, which Stefon Diggs used to set up a quick red zone situation with a 41-yard catch.’
Josh Allen says his ‘bad decisions’ cost Bills in loss to Jets
‘”It’s tough to win in this league when you’re playing a good team and your quarterback plays like s—,” Allen said. “Made some bad decisions tonight, really cost our team. A lot to learn from, a lot to grow from. But that’s not, that’s not the standard we hold ourselves to. That’s not the ball that we play. So, a lot to look at, a lot to learn from.”‘
Jets vs. Bills score, takeaways: Zach Wilson, defense fuel New York’s shocking upset win over Buffalo
‘Playing without Jordan Poyer and Matt Milano, Buffalo’s defense was unable to stop the Jets running game late in the game. Conversely, the Bills offense struggled to run the ball. Take away Allen’s 86 yards on nine carries, Buffalo picked up just 48 yards on 13 carries. Newly acquired running back Nyheim Hines, who was used on special teams and in the passing game, did not receive a carry.’
Bills’ Josh Allen says he’s feeling ‘slight pain’ in right elbow after upset loss vs. Jets
‘As the Bills were trying to stage a last-minute comeback toward the end of the game, Allen dropped back to pass and came under pressure by Jets edge rusher Bryce Huff. As he unloaded to throw the ball, Huff brought his arms down hard on the ball and knocked it free. Allen could then be seen shaking his arm and flexing his hand following the play, which resulted in a strip-sack.’
Bizarre delay: Bills-Jets game stopped for more than 10 minutes due to SkyCam malfunction
‘With just under nine minutes left to play in the third quarter of Bills-Jets, the game was stopped for roughly 12 minutes after there was a SkyCam malfunction at MetLife Stadium. According to the CBS broadcast crew, one of the cables that was holding up the camera snapped, which left the SkyCam floating too closely to the field.’
Bills’ Josh Allen Gives Himself Harsh Assessment After Loss to Jets
‘“It’s tough to win in this league when you’re playing a good team and your quarterback plays like s—,” Allen said after the game. “[I] made some bad decisions tonight, really cost us our team. Lot to learn from, lot to grow from, but that’s not the standard we hold ourselves to. That’s not the ball that we play.”’
