Their OL is so bad and Rodgers has almost zero mobility, so the Bills knew that the Jets would run the ball and use quick passes to mitigate those weaknesses. That worked for the Jets until the Bills got a two-score lead and the Jets had to throw. Then it became sack city.
Reminds me of watching an NBA game called by Bill Walton about 10 years ago. A Pistons player threw away an inbounds pass (something that happens all the time), and Walton said "that was the worst play in the history of professional basketball." If you search YouTube, he named at least 20 plays a year the "worst in the history of the NBA."
This is a weird game. The Jets are going to go all out, but they can't play spoiler. I know that we're all worked up about seeding, but the worst that it can be is #3. That's a good place to be in week 17. But I'll still be mad if they lose.
And delay. Lots and lots of delay.

But on a serious note, when I was a kid they had DE, DTs, and LBs. Now they got Edge, 1T, 3T, Mike, Sam and Will. I blame Mel Kiper.
I stand corrected on that, but Mike Brown is still alone in his cheapness.
Great QBs are supposed to do that. Mahomes won a SB with JuJu and MVS as his two best receivers. Brady made Edelman into a star. Joe Burrow can't win a game without both of his all-pro receivers.
Burrow is strange for a great QB. Usually a top QB elevates the talent around him, but Burrow really needs two #1 WRs to be successful. For example, the Bengals are 6-4 with Higgins but 1-4 without him. The only game that the Bengals won without Higgins was against the Raiders. Chase has played every game. So, just having the best WR in the league is not enough for him. He needs #1 and another top 10 guy to do anything.
And now from the other side. I once graded an exam where the students were asked why the US Senate didn’t ratify the Treaty of Versailles. One student wrote “The US Senate didn’t ratify the Treaty of Versailles because President Hitler didn’t take any Senators to the conference.” So close. I also had a student write “President Washington was lucky to have such well endowed advisors like Jefferson and Hamilton.” Now that’s a reference book that would tell us a lot.
