Tonight at 7:00 p.m. ET on CBS the New York Jets (2-8) will try to keep up the momentum they gained two weeks ago by upsetting Pittsburgh when they take on the Buffalo Bills (5-5) at Ford Field in Detroit. Fans can live stream the game by clicking this link; Jets fans can hear the radio broadcast on 98.7 ESPN New York, while Bills fans may do the same on WGR 550 AM.
This game was supposed to be a Bills home game, but several feet of snow changed all that. Buffalo hasn't been able to practice much, or really even get out of their homes, giving the Jets a bit of an advantage. In addition, this will be the second Bills home game played away from their home stadium.
"I've never seen anything like it," Bills coach Doug Marrone said of the heavy snowfall. "It's very difficult to put into words exactly what's going on. Us being able to go out and practice is obviously not an option for us. This is very challenging. It's a tough, tough situation."
The Bills may need to rely on their desperation to overcome the limited practice time-this is a must-win game for them following a potentially crippling loss to Miami on Thursday Night Football in Week 11. "We need all hands on deck," injured running back Fred Jackson, who will be playing through injury said.
"I need 100 percent for me to be out there and help my teammates. I think they want me out there. I want to be out there. I want to try to make some plays and get this thing turned around."
The Jets looked like a different team with Michael Vick under center and having gained familiarity with the team's personnel. Head coach Rex Ryan is refusing to second-guess his decision to stick with second-year QB Geno Smith as long as he did before turning to Vick.
"You can easily say, 'Oh, well, we should've done this,' now," Ryan said. "At the same time, I was comfortable in my decision, not just with Michael, but with the other ones as well. So, I'm not going to spend time looking back."
