The Buffalo Bills are set to host the New York Jets in NFL Week 17 action. What five bold predictions can be made for the game and what should fans be on the lookout for throughout the game?
1. Tyrod Taylor Puts Up Big Numbers Against a Tough Secondary
New York still has one of the top secondaries in the game, but Tyrod Taylor will find a way to put up big numbers. Taylor has proven himself to be a potential long-term starting quarterback option for the Bills, which is exactly what they were hoping he could become. He has the weapons to put up consistently big games and his full potential will show this week against the Jets.
2. Ryan Fitzpatrick Continues His Impressive Play
One of the bigger stories over the last couple of weeks has been the play of Jets' quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. He has never been able to power an offense throughout his career, but that is exactly what he has been doing this year. It doesn't hurt that he has a lot of high caliber wide receivers, but he will continue his impressive play this week against the Bills.
3. Sammy Watkins Breaks Through with a Massive Performance
Buffalo has needed Sammy Watkins to step up and find a bit of consistency throughout the majority of the season. He has yet to find that consistency, but he will break out with another massive performance this week. New York may have a good secondary, but Watkins is a big game waiting to happen and it will happen this week.
4. Brandon Marshall Racks Up at Least 100 Yards, Two Touchdowns
After being acquired from the Chicago Bears before this season, Brandon Marshall immediately became the No. 1 wide receiver that the Jets have been needing. He is one of the most consistent receivers in the game and that has been showing this year. Marshall will continue his dominance with at least 100 yards and two touchdowns against the Bills this week.
5. Buffalo Comes Out with a Rivalry Win Over the Jets
These two teams have a bitter in-state rivalry and the Bills are going to take home the bragging rights from this game. New York has to win this game if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive, but that will not end up happening. Buffalo is going to come out with a win, although it won't be easy and it should come down to the final few minutes.
