Back in the New York Groove: Bills v Jets week 7 preview

 

  Look I'm gonna keep it real with you, we looked like shit against the Titans and we really looked like shit against the Chiefs. The O-Line killed us in the Titans game and the lack of hitting and defence in general killed us against the Chiefs. Those are fixable problems especially how early we are in the season but troubling especially after the HOT 4-0 start. 

Wednesday McBeane made some moves by first releasing a guy who only a few months ago got a three year 15 million dollar extension Quinton Spain. A guy who probably could've helped out with the bad o-line play, but with Jon Feliciano hopefully coming back soon hopefully this Spain move will help in the long run opening up more cap space which could equal more help for the defence who really need it.

About the defence, on wednesday D-Tackle Justin Zimmer was signed to the active roster. Zimmer who was about one of the only guys who looked halfway decent against the Chiefs will hopefully continue that against the Jets on Sunday. Also fingers crossed Matt Milano who was inactive against the Chiefs could be back in the lineup. 

We need a bounceback after this two game skid and there's no better team to start a bounceback against the 0-6, still coached by Adam Gase, and Le'Veon Bell-less New York Jets. The Bills have a really good opportunity to sweep the Jets for the first time since Tyrod Taylor did it back in 2015. The Jets are a shell of what they were back when we played them in our week 1 opener, trading away most of their team and looking at the prospect of tanking and starting all over again.

Since this could be our very last Josh Allen v Sam Darnold AFC East matchup lets soak it in. Let's not keep worrying about losing to the Super Bowl Champions, we can get back on track this weekend to show why we're top of the division and why we're not a fraudulent Super Bowl contenders. Let's Feed Singletary, make sure Diggs gets open, give Josh some more time in the pocket, and it should be smooth sailing.   

*UPDATE* - Fucking Coronavirus man, I knew it would happen at some point but I didn't expect it to hit us literally the day before the game. Dawson Knox, Lee Smith, Tommy Sweeney, and Nate Becker all got positive hits on their tests from Friday. So this leaves us with literally just Tyler Kroft with some help from rookie Reggie Gilliam to play Tight End. If our offensive woes weren't enough we now head into Sunday's game with 4 less Tight Ends than I thought.
