The New York Jets will hope to add a win to their record in 2024 in Week 5. The team will face the Buffalo Bills at home on “Monday Night Football.”
As usual, it will never be a walk in the park in the NFL. If the Jets (2-3) expect to beat the Bills (3-2), there will be a few key things New York will have to focus on against Buffalo.
It will have to be a full-team effort, make no mistake. But these factors could weigh heavy on whether or not New York leave with a win or loss.
Here are three keys to the Jets pulling out a victory against the Bills:
Give Aaron Time

This has been a rinse and repeat one each week at this rate. The Jets offensive line has to give quarterback Aaron Rodgers time to do anything. He’s been on the run too often this season, just like last week during New York’s 23-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Get Breece going

The offensive line has to help here, too. The Jets rushing attack has continued struggles each week. That makes things tough on the entire offense. New York becomes predictable and an opposing defense takes advantage of it… especially one like Buffalo’s and their stout secondary.
Force Josh into mistakes
(USAT)
The Bills lost to the Houston Texans last week. The one thing everyone saw quarterback Josh Allen was still capable of? Playing a lot of “hero ball.” If the Jets’ front-seven can pressure Allen, he’s going to chuck balls up for the cornerbacks Sauce Gardner and DJ Reed to take away.
