Bills Take 7-1 Record to MetLife Stadium Against Jets
By Alexander Cole
Buffalo Bills (7-1) at New York Jets (2-7) — Sunday, November 15 | 1 p.m. ET | CBS | MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey
The Buffalo Bills take a 7-1 record into Sunday’s meeting with the New York Jets, who enter at 2-7, as the teams renew their divisional matchup at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Buffalo has put together one of the strongest records in the league through the first portion of the season. Sunday’s game gives the Bills an opportunity to add another win and maintain their position as the schedule moves into November. With the postseason race approaching its decisive stretch, every divisional result can carry added importance.
The Jets, meanwhile, enter the matchup looking to improve a record that has left them well below .500. At 2-7, New York needs wins to change the direction of its season. A home victory over a 7-1 opponent would be a substantial result and could provide a needed boost.
The divisional setting gives the game significance beyond the records alone. Buffalo and New York are competing within the AFC East, where games between division opponents can influence the standings and eventual tiebreaking picture. A Bills win would strengthen Buffalo’s position, while a Jets victory would give New York an opportunity to make up ground within the division.
Buffalo enters with a five-game advantage in the win column, but the game will be played on the Jets’ home field. New York will have the opportunity to use that setting to challenge the league’s 7-1 team.
The 1 p.m. ET kickoff is part of Sunday’s early window. CBS will televise the game from MetLife Stadium.
