Buffalo aims to attack New York’s secondary with a precision-heavy passing attack, leveraging Josh Allen’s prime form and Joe Brady’s scheme to maximize yards-after-catch and red-zone efficiency. A fast, clean start in Week 2 would push the Bills to 2-0 and force the Jets into rare mistakes in a divisional bout.

The Bills’ defense seeks a repeat performance against a run-first, mobile offense, even with Ed Oliver sidelined by an ankle injury. Rookie T.J. Sanders steps into a bigger role as Buffalo pressures Zach Wilson and neutralizes the Jets’ ground game, while Buffalo fights for balance and control of pace to dictate the tempo at MetLife.

Key narratives center on Allen’s ability to exploit a vulnerable Jets secondary, the Bills’ offensive efficiency under Brady, and the defense’s capacity to replicate a plan that stifles a multi-faceted attack. If Buffalo can execute with discipline, convert in the red zone, and limit big plays, the Week 2 win can reinforce the AFC East message.

Buffalo faces a short-week showdown in Week 2 at the Meadowlands, aiming to exploit New York’s cover on the boundary and corral Justin Fields’ rushing ability. The plan centers on attacking Brandon Stephens with route variety and motion to test the Jets’ depth, while keeping a tight lid on Fields’ legs. Ed Oliver’s absence heightens the challenge on defense, making disciplined gap control crucial as Buffalo seeks rhythm in a compressed schedule.

Two-on-two, the Bills must shift the passing game into gear and pressure the Jets with timely blitzes and smart containment. If Buffalo can establish a steady passing tempo and limit Fields’ scrambles, a road win becomes a realistic outcome despite the quick turnaround.
