Pick your storyline. There’s no shortage of compelling reasons to pay attention to the Bills-Jets matchup this Thursday night. Here are seven of the top storylines for this short week leading into the game:
1. THE JETS/BILLS RIVALRY HAS NEVER BEEN HOTTER
The Bills all-time record against the Jets is 59-51, the only AFC East team they’ve got a winning record against. And it’s five straight Bills wins and counting against “Gang Green.”
Last year’s two matchups were memorable. The image still lingers of Rex Ryan’s fourth quarter fist pump in the Thursday night game in the Meadowlands as the Bills finished off the Jets last November.
