I'm torn......help

The root against the Jets might not be so automatic next week. We have a tie breaker over the Jets, but not the Bills.

Does anyone truly think the Bills will keep this momentum up all season long?

It was a feel good story early but you can now see some cracks developing in the walls of that team.....teams are starting to respect Buffalo and thats NOT a good thing for those guys.

Buffalo should finish around 9-7 IMO

Now that'll be an interesting 'who to root for' game.

It's close but right now I'd say the Bills. I see Buffalo's run coming to an end soon, and just don't see them keeping close to us, unless we lose 3-4 more games which probably won't happen. The Jets I fear may be building momentum and their schedule over the 2nd half looks favorable other than games against Philly/NYG. And with those 2 teams, you never know what you're going to get, with the Jets luck I bet they get the putrid versions.

Plus, if Buffalo is really that good and the division comes down to them vs. us @ Gillette, I would pretty much guarantee a win for us in that situation. Our next game vs. the Jets is in their house where we've lost the last 2 times, if the Jets sweep the Bills and beat us they'll have the tiebreaker. Come end of season, I'd rather destiny be in our hands than on tiebreakers, so I'd rather it come down to us and Buffalo.
 
Already onto the Jets-Bills rooting quandary. Good. Time to move on and root yet again next week for the Jets.

The Jets can continue to do the Patriots dirty work as far as I'm concerned.

The Bills careening to 5-3 is a good thing. If the Pats handle the Steelers, it will be 6-1 followed by two teams with three-losses each in the division. A two game lead in the loss column with nine to go.

On the other hand, a Buffalo win pushes the Jets back to 4-4 dropping them into a pile-up of mediocre teams with rapidly shrinking chances of seeing the playoffs. The Bills would be in the catbird seat for a wild card at 5-2.

It is a huge game for both teams.
 
As foggy as I was in wondering who to root for in the Jet/Chargers game, I'm very clear in the Bills Jets game. I'm going to be rooting for the Bills all the way. I love the Bills. They are the feel good story of the NFL this year. They are scrappy. They play hard. And their blue collar, long suffering fans deserve some pleasure after a decade of abject futility.

I also love that I don't fear them any more than I do the Jets. They have a good offense, but our defense isn't getting better and healthier. A lot of good things happened for the Bills that allowed them to BARELY beat us on their home field. LOTS OF THEM! I can't see it happening again, especially in Gillette. They are starting to get dinged up at the same time we are getting healthier.

No folks, let the Bills enjoy this win, and lets enjoy it with them. If there is a "white hat, black hat" game this week, it will be the Jets/Bills, and I won't be pulling any punches rooting for the Bills
