New York Jets at Buffalo Bills, Nov 2, 2008 1:00 PM EST

Buffalo Bills (5-2) vs New York Jets (4-3)
1:00 PM EST, Ralph Wilson Stadium
Keys to Victory :: Key Matchups :: Gang Green Nation :: Video Preview
BUF Injury Report :: NYJ Injury Report
Bills inactives: DE Aaron Schobel, OG Brad Butler, WR Josh Reed, RB Xavier Omon, CB Ashton Youboty, OT Demetrius Bell, DT John McCargo, QB Gibran Hamdan (3rd QB).
Lineup Notes: Duke Preston to start at C, Jason Whittle to start at RG, Ryan Denney to start at DE and James Hardy to start at WR.

The 5-2 Buffalo Bills are set to take on the 4-3 New York Jets in a second straight AFC East battle for our beloved Bills.  Let's make this simple: a Bills win re-establishes this team as the Patriots' main contender for a division crown, while a loss re-establishes this team among a vast pool of average NFL teams.  In short, this is a must-win for the Bills - not only when it comes to division standings, but their psyche as well.

The Bills will be without a few key starters, but the Jets aren't completely healthy, either - QB Brett Favre has been banged up all season, and MLB David Harris will miss this one.  Both teams are hurting, but both teams will be fighting tooth and nail for a win today.  This is going to be a good one, folks.

The team needs you today.  Even if you're not going to be at The Ralph, fire up your account and get ready to cheer on the Bills in this here game thread.  It's game time, folks.  GO BILLS!

does anyone know a website that streams the game in english

by geno227 on Nov 2, 2008 12:22 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

try this

http://xssports.lhosting.info/

If that doesn’t work, someone will likely post another link around kickoff. Check back then…

Interesting to see that McCargo is inactive again today…

no doubt...

but I thought McCargo was at least healthy..?

I'm going to call...

a rather pedestrian running game, a decent pass attack, and a good showing by the defense. 2 sacks. Roscoe will have one 20+ yard return. 23-16, Buffalo.

Hard to remember

he has barely played a full season. Mistakes happen but that was pretty dumb. just like the Dallas game last year.

by RabidBuffalo on Nov 2, 2008 1:47 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Man, that offensive line needs work

Bad O-line protection from that right side. That’s the third or fourth time he’s been forced into a bad decision or turnover.

by BearsNecessity on Nov 2, 2008 1:46 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Trent's still young.

He’s killing us……BUT

We shouldnt have to ask him to do so much….

The Run game is supposed to help him

He’s still young. Moan all you want…

if we could run the ball…we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

Besides…..I don’t think you’d want another QB under center.

by Scoe221 on Nov 2, 2008 1:49 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I agree

that not being able to run had a lot to do with that.

by RabidBuffalo on Nov 2, 2008 1:50 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I just don't understand

whay we make excuses when Trent makes a bad play but when J.P. makes a bad play it’s because he sucks. I think both guys are pretty equal at this point and there is a possibility that Edwards could be better eventually but most Bills fans will let Edwards make bad play after bad play and will make excuses.

by Scoe221 on Nov 2, 2008 2:29 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

What an ugly score

The offense moved the ball very well and was stopped more by stupidity (INT, no gain on 4th and inches) than the Jets defense. I’m hoping for a 20 play TD drive to open the 2nd half. It would further add to the TOP advantage (4.5 minutes now) and put the Bills on top 14-13.

It is starting to become painfully clear that luck and an easy schedule has given the Bills a 5-2 record

Maybe, but I think it has to do more with the NFL in general. A team gets hot and looks real good for a few weeks and then plays poorly a few weeks and loses games you can’t believe. There may be a few teams at the top that are truly really good and a few at the bottom that are truly really bad, but most everybody else can look good or bad on any given week.

I wouldn’t disagree with any of that. I guess the hope was that maybe we would be in the upper echelon, although I don’t think anyone would have predicted that before 4-0. Losing 3 of 4 would sure suck/

Yeah, unfortunately Buffalo has shown they are firmly in that “everybody else” group. Maybe, if we are lucky, this core of young guys can grow into the upper echelon.

They are slightly better than last year….Edwards is better than last year’s duo, and our run D is better, but we are worse running the ball and still are way too soft against the pass. Also, our ST has taken a hit….

Turn it on fellas….

OK….same situation as last week, only the complete opposite…

road team up 16-7 in the 3rd Q. We could use that huge play just like the Dolphins got last week……

Lack of discipline as a team

how many times this year have penalties taken away a 1st down?

Yeah, I think the backs could do a much better job of cutting back or bouncing it outside instead of just plowing into the pile.

Doesn’t even look like halftime adjustments did much good.

Keep digging those holes Peters. What better way to endear yourself to fans than to conduct one of the most bizarre holdouts in NFL history followed by coming back and playing like garbage

O-line really needs an upgrade this offseason. It’s the next big step we have to make.

awful drive. seems like they can’t sustain one w/o a defensive penalty.
