Week 6 of the NFL season marks a reset of sorts for the New York Jets.
The club fired head coach Robert Saleh last week after Aaron Rodgers made three interceptions, including the No. 6 pick in the first quarter, in a 23-17 loss to the Vikings in London. Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich has been appointed on an interim basis and will help set the tone for the Jets, who are 2-3 and have a chance of finishing first in the AFC East with a win over the Bills.
The 3-2 Bills suffered a blowout loss to the Ravens, and last week they suffered a walk-off loss to the Texans on a 59-yard field goal by Kaimi Fairbairn, making it their second straight loss. Josh Allen briefly left the game with head and ankle injuries, but was cleared in concussion protocol and returned. Although he didn’t turn the ball over and has yet to throw an interception in 131 pass attempts this season, he completed just 9-of-30 passes for 131 yards in the loss, including The big part was at 49 yards. -Yard catch and run by rookie receiver Keon Coleman.
