To add to the above:

Ryan's revenge game was in NY and he won it. Mission accomplished. Motivation is severely watered down in a lost season for the Bills and you are correct in saying, remarkably, that Ryan has severely downgraded this defense.

I struggled to get through that brutal Cowboys game where I had the Bills ML. Bills looked COMPLETELY unmotivated and the final score of 16-6 did not do it justice. That was a very close game where only a late turnover lead to a TD to skew the result. Bills could not put it in the end zone no matter how much they tried before that against a Cowboys team that installed underachievers and sat stars (ie coaches want to lose respectably).

And here's another tidbit which points to the Jets winning...

Ryan came out at his press conference and said the following:

"I think part of it now looking at the season, we have, this is not the time. You know with, if we are trying to win a more significant game for us. Obviously that would be, you might consider something else. We want him to be the long term solution at the spot, so he has got to learn to protect himself and understand that we need him to be that."

If they are going to inhibit Taylor's ability to run, they will lose for certain. Even suggesting such a thing publicly and planting a seed in Taylor's head making him throw (not his strength when it's his primary option) is a bad thing.

There was a 4 game stretch this season where Taylor ran 24 times (low for him on average). Bills went 1-3.

Also, Mario Williams, an alleged defensive 'big dog' is compeltely nonexistent on defense.

He played 54 snaps vs the Cowboys and didn't register a single tackle, assisted tackle, hurry or QB pressure of any kind. Zero's on the entire stat line.

Bills have really struggled down the stretch and to come out with all this motivation in a season that's down the hopper is to gamble on something that won't be there in full (what is needed to win against this Jets team), especially as players are more than disgruntled with how Rex and his schemes have watered down their defensive stats tremendously.

Try to compare this game to Rex returning to his old stomping grounds at MetLife with a healthier team and one that benefited from timely turnovers and in a game where the Bills were more than alive for the playoffs. The two games just don't compare as the Jets come off a highly emotional win, but one where they still control their density and their mission of the playoffs is still not accomplished to counter that.

I will be backing the Jets with you with a very reasonable line.

Great stuff, scal! Cannot agree more here.
If Taylor will be forced to stay in the pocket, it's going to be a long day for the Bills offense.
Let's get them Jets
