The Buffalo Bills enter play this week against the New York Jets facing a pivotal point in their season. While they remain in first place in the AFC East, the team has stumbled badly in its last two games. They were blown out on the road by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 4, losing 35-10, before dropping a gut-wrenching 23-20 contest at the Houston Texans. While that one sounds much better, the Bills trailed 20-3 before they woke up and rallied.
Buffalo can’t afford the same kind of slow start this week against the Jets.
