The Jets keep talking about being more physical and reverting back to a “Ground and Pound” team. Well, this is an excellent game for the team to make a statement. The Bills are no slouch in the trenches as they brought in the most coveted free agent this off-season, Mario Williams. He joins second year force Marcell Dareus and other free agent acquisition Mark Anderson to form a revamped defensive front. New York’s offensive line has to set the tone early and create space for Shonn Greene and company.
While Mark Sanchez needs to make plays, the offense needs to run the ball well to set up the play-action for Sanchez. Offensive coordinator Tony Sparano likes to use play-action to attack and make big plays in the passing game after he establishes the ground game. Look for rookie receiver Stephen Hill’s number to get called a few times down field, that’s why he was drafted.
