‘And a sloppy, dirty job it was.’

It was ugly and bizarre, but Bills come away with huge win vs. Jets
‘Regardless of how it looked, though, it could very well go down as one of the Bills’ more important triumphs of the regular season. Besides snapping a two-game losing streak, the Bills also improved their record to 4-2. That gives them a 2 ½-game lead in the AFC East because of the victories they have over the 2-3 Dolphins and 2-4 Jets. The outcome put to rest, at least for a week, the mounting doubt about just how good the Bills really are after sprinting to a 3-0 start.’

How can the Bills defeat the New York Jets on Monday night? Here are 4 keys to a Buffalo win
‘Establish balance. Allen was asked about the challenge of attacking New York’s secondary. He pivoted in his answer. “No. 1, I think establishing the run and making sure we can try to commit to that,” Allen said Wednesday. The Bills will need to pose a threat in both the run game and the pass game to keep the Jets on their toes. History shows they can do it. “I think we ran it well last year. But it wasn’t like this crazy 300-yard run or pass game,” Allen said. “It was just kind of a good balanced attack that we’re going to have to utilize going forward, and especially against this team because they’re playing some really good football right now.”’

Bills-Jets: Who you got? Buffalo News writers make their predictions on Monday's game
‘This has got the potential to be an ugly prime-time affair. The Bills’ offense has been borderline unwatchable the past two weeks. Things could get uglier without running back James Cook and wide receiver Khalil Shakir, both of whom are hurt. They have been, by far, Josh Allen’s most consistent offensive weapons. Figuring out how the Bills are going to move the ball on offense without them against a defense that has given them fits is hard to do. Defensively, the Bills should be able put a good game together, even without Ed Oliver (injured) and Von Miller (suspended) on the defensive line. Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers looks washed, but the Bills have to worry about running back Breece Hall. I don’t trust the Buffalo run defense against an elite running back, and I don’t trust the offense at all right now. Jets, 20-17.’
Bills Mailbag: Which receiver should Brandon Beane target in a trade?
‘Cooper is making just $1.2 million in base salary this season, which would mean the Bills would be on the hook for the remaining portion whenever the trade was made. That makes him an affordable option, should Cleveland be willing to trade him. The Browns are dead in the water and Cooper is a pending unrestricted free agent, so it’s logical to think Cleveland would be willing to shop him.’
