We can't let them go up three games on us because it's difficult to battle back three games down with five to play," said Donte Whitner. "We feel like this is a must win for us this weekend and we're going to treat it like that."
"We can't look ahead, but you have to look ahead from the standpoint of seeing what's at stake at this next game," said J.P. Losman.
Jacksonville (7-3), Tennessee (6-4) and Cleveland (6-4) are the three teams not leading their respective divisions that sit ahead of the Bills in the conference standings. Buffalo has the benefit of playing two of those three teams over the final six weeks with the Bills also traveling to Cleveland on Dec. 16.
But without a win over Jacksonville their chances for the postseason will be dramatically reduced.
Surprisingly the Jaguars have been a better team on the road than at home this season. Jacksonville is an impressive 4-1 on the road with wins at Denver, Kansas City, Tampa Bay and Tennessee. They're 3-2 at home following their most recent win over San Diego (24-17).
Still Whitner isn't expecting anything to come easy against one of the more physical teams in the NFL.
"It's not going to be easy to go down there and get a win. Jacksonville came up here last year and lost to us at home," said Whitner. "They have a good football team and they're having a good season and they don't want to let us go down there and beat them. So it's going to be tough."
