NFL: Buffalo Bills at New York Jets Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports

The Buffalo Bills (5-5) have dug themselves quite a hole in their drive to make the playoffs for the fifth consecutive season, but if the team has any hope of making the postseason, it starts with Sunday afternoon’s AFC East clash vs. the New York Jets (4-5) at Highmark Stadium.

Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks previews the game, discusses the key matchups to watch and identifies the top story lines as the Bills look to salvage a split of the season series vs. the Jets.
