They were part of a key matchup in the game. Jets receivers Eric Decker and Brandon Marshall were primary weapons in New York’s passing game and Ryan Fitzpatrick never hesitates to use them. Buffalo’s top two corners usually hold their own against anybody, but they had a tough go of it Thursday night.
Decker and Marshall combined for 227 receiving yards catching 12 of their 17 targets and a touchdown in New York’s six-point win. Fitzpatrick had just 10 incompletions on 34 pass attempts and averaged a bloated 11 yards per attempt.
