00:00Monumental Monday night football game at MetLife in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
00:08Not only because of the impact the outcome of the score would have on
00:13divisional standings on seating already in the AFC, even after week six, not
00:19just because the first third of the 2024 NFL regular season now officially in
00:25the books, but because of everything that had happened around this Jets
00:30organization in the last seven days.
00:33The firing of head coach Robert Sala only five weeks into his fourth year at
00:37the helm, the demotion of Nathaniel Hackett, the promotion of Todd Downing
00:42as the play caller in the first game under interim head coach Jeff Ulbricht
00:47and of course all of the notoriety and focus on a 40-year-old quarterback
00:52Aaron Rodgers trying to lead the New York Jets to a playoff berth for the
00:57first time in 14 NFL seasons.
01:01And if you might be thinking to yourself, why are we talking to playoffs
01:04six weeks into the season?
01:06That was how critical Monday night was at MetLife.
01:11And at the end of the day, Joe, for a variety of reasons, and we'll break down
01:15every angle, the officiating and too much yellow laundry on the turf last night,
01:20the abhorrent field goal kicking on both sides from both Buffalo and New York.
01:26Whatever the reason is, ultimately the box score will show and the standings
01:31will represent a Buffalo team that won to improve the four and two and occupy
01:37the top spot alone in the AFC East.
01:4023 to 20, the win for the Bills on the road in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
01:45They cover as a one and a half point road favorite against the Jets.
01:50Yeah, I mean, well, this event, I mean, they did exactly, Buffalo did exactly
01:54what they needed to do.
01:55They need to go on the road, tough environment and get the job done.
02:00And that's exactly what Josh Allen and by the way, I mean, Davis was a huge
02:06and I mean a huge factor in that game for Buffalo.
02:09Once we learned that Cook was out and he did a phenomenal job.
02:13He did everything they needed to do in order to be able to win on the road in
02:17a division, which is never an easy thing to do.
02:19In the meantime, the Jets and many aspects outplayed Buffalo across the
02:24board, especially in the second half.
02:26But you know, when you only go one of four in the red zone, you miss a couple
02:31of field goals.
02:32You go for 12 on third down and now you've got on and top everything else.
02:37You apparently have a kicking problem.
02:39One that needs to be addressed.
02:41They keep saying Zerline is healthy.
02:43I don't see it.
02:45I don't think he's healthy.
02:46I think something is going on there.
02:48It's yet another one of these things.
02:49The Jets are going to have to look at and at this point now a short week.
02:53They got to go to Pittsburgh for Sunday night.
02:56They don't have you know, these were games.
02:58They needed to win.
02:59They gave one in Denver to Denver.
03:02They gave one to Buffalo their room for error.
03:05Now is pretty much slim than on the rest of the way.
