The Bill's offensive strength was negated by the Jets defensive strength.  It was strength versus strength.

 

In contrast the defense is also a Bill's strength.  Can you say that offense is a Jets strength?  Again, only giving up 20 points to KC or Philadelphia is a good defensive performance.  Against the Jets it's not so good. And throw in the fact that the Jets moved the ball at crucial times during the game resulting in huge momentum changes magnified the defenses poor play.

 

It was a team loss.

Random thought …

 

What happened to Cook?

 

Were his touches too productive early on?  
 

Shakir treatment?.. oh, you make plays as a rookie?.. To the bench with you. 

In close games the coaches just don’t trust rookies and young players unless they’re forced to.

Last year should've been their year. This team will be like the 90's Bills, a tease.

Poor post. Making 4 SB's is a tease? You've got no clue

It teased the hell out of me considering two of the SB’s we should have dominated.  

[Brand J]

Bills had 254 yards of offense but only 14 pts at halftime. They had 63 total yards and 3 points the entire second half. Brutal. This loss was absolutely on the offense, as was the Miami L.

"Road favorite"

That place was 50% Bills fans. If anything it was a neutral site. I have pictures but they're too big to post on here. Bills Mafia was in the building!! Brutal but humbling Loss

Brutal loss. I was there. It was close to 50/50. It was loud for the Jets on offense. MVP chants after Allen's second TD run.

I can't believe we're arguing about this 30 years later but we were only favored in the first Super Bowl and decent sized underdogs (at least +6.5) in the other three.

Allen with two awful turnovers. Rookie picks. 

2 weeks in a row with 2 ints and a red zone pick 

Not going to win much playing that way.

 

Maybe something changed during the bye?

Not sure but those were certainly some of the worse tos since his 2nd season

The Jets having the ball the first 9 minutes of the 2nd half set the tone.  
 

The coaches did a p** poor job today.  
 

 

Fake punt led to a first down then a TD on that drive 

 

A 13 play 75 yard Jets TD drive to close out the 1st half.  

 

A 96 yard drive at the end of the game.  
 

The O stunk.  But it went up against a great Defense.  
 

Our D looked lost.

I think you'll see that pretty much any loss of this team will result from Josh having a bad game.

 

The whole team lives and dies on his shoulders.

 

It will be that way until his career is over.

I agree with this 100% and not just because I don't trust Phillips (which I admittedly do not), but I think the Bills coaches are so slavishly inflexible with their rotation that they're hurting themselves at critical moments. Today was a fine example when the Jets got the ball inside their own 5 with about 7:00 left and who comes trotting on the field but Jordan Phillips. 10 seconds after my wife told me to stop grumbling about it, the Jets were on the move.

The reason they run that rotation in the first place is so they can have everybody fresh at crunch time, but when crunch time comes around it's time to get your best players out there. Ed Oliver should have been out there to start that series right next to Settle or Jones, as opposed to Phillips who still spends way too much time trying to slip blocks instead of aggressively engaging OLinemen to stone opposing offenses like he should be. 

Somebody on that staff needs to sit him down and explain to him that if he continues to go out there and play for himself and hang his teammates out to dry, he's going to end up right back in Arizona or some other place that is looking for a glory hound. Guy's got a ton of talent but until he starts playing more like a fighter than a dancer, he's always going to be a liability at key moments.

 

Truth. 

 

When he plays at his best, Phillips is a huge upgrade on Bryant, and maybe even on Ed as he played his way back from the high ankle, but fundamentally JP is like Forest Gump's damned bunch of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.   Did you notice after a successful run play where Phillips didn't mind his gap in the first half, Edmunds came up and got in his face?  The next couple run plays got stuffed.  But Edmunds can't get in a guy's face every snap, especially when he has his own struggles.

 

Obviously, missing Poyer and Milano, and then Elam and Jackson and Rousseau going out didn't help, but I wonder if the D has gotten a bit lackadaisical.  Like, they figure if they're holding the other team to 20 points or less and maybe getting a takeaway, they've done their job and can make some "career decisions" and ease off.  But they can't count on Josh to never have a bad day or to always light up the scoreboard like pinball.

I'm not trying to defend the offense or say they weren't brutal.

 

But when your defense another team to sustain 14 and 15 play drives, 8 minute drives; when they give up 176 yds rushing one week and 208 yds the previous week (WITH Poyer and Milano), it's hard to argue that they're Doing Their Job.

This could just be me....but I think what Dawkins said in the locker room is closer to truth.

Did anyone ever see the phantom holding replay on last drive? Oddly I think there was one against us on the last drive when we lost to the Phins too.

You're correct. But the defense also let the jets just run it 75 yards for the game winning fg

Jets passed once and the drive started on our 4 yard line😂. Not sure what is more embarrassing, that or losing to the Pats while they attempted 3 passes all game. 
 

What’s the point of having all those DBs on the field if they ain’t even passing?

Because we need people on the field, we are trading for backups for when our backup thats starting gets hurt lol
