The New York Jets’ Week 6 matchup against the Buffalo Bills will mark the beginning of a new chapter in the team’s history. The Jets chose to terminate head coach Robert Saleh early on Tuesday morning and elevated defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich to the position of interim head coach, in an unexpected change of events. Following a wobbly 2-3 start, the Jets made the decision to change course.
There’s a curious sensation that things may go extremely wrong for the Bills as the Jets prepare to play them in MetLife Stadium on Monday Night Football. That might, however, also provide the Bills with a significant edge if the Jets players struggle with this change.
We can all agree that the Jets’ defence is formidable, despite the fact that a lot is uncertain for them at the moment. They have excellent run defence and a strong pass defence. They have only given up a maximum of 221 passing yards per game, with two of those games having a maximum of 61 passing yards.
The defensive line is one of their more potent defensive groupings. With six sacks so far this season, edge rusher Will McDonald leads the Jets, who have racked up 18 sacks in five games overall.
The offensive line of the Bills will be crucial going into Week 6. Their shoulders will be the ones to bear in this game. The Bills will be headed for their third straight defeat if they are easily defeated by this Jets defence.
Josh Allen is among the league’s most protected quarterbacks as he has only allowed six sacks in his first five games. But over his career, Allen has had a few difficult games versus the Jets.
