Bills vs. Jets game today: Watch NFL Week 6 live stream for free

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – The Buffalo Bills enter tonight’s game against the New York Jets looking to avoid a three-game losing streak for the first time since Josh Allen became their starting quarterback.

The last time the Bills lost three games in a row was in 2018, but Allen missed three of those games due to an elbow injury. This time it’s a healthy Allen trying to get Buffalo (3-2) back on track against the Jets (2-3). The Monday Night Football game begins at 8:15 p.m. Eastern Time and will be broadcast on ESPN.

Several streaming services will broadcast the game live, and you can watch it on Fubo (free trial and $20 off your first month), DirecTV Stream (free trial), and Sling (promotional offers).

The Jets are dealing with changes of their own. They will play their first game under interim coach Jeff Ulbrich, who took over after Robert Saleh was fired following a disappointing 2-3 start. A win today could tie the Jets with the Bills for the top spot in the AFC East, making this matchup crucial for both teams.

Bills – Jets matchup preview

This game will likely come down to how well Josh Allen can handle the Jets’ defense, which ranks second in the league in passing defense. Although Allen has yet to throw an interception this season, Buffalo’s passing game has been a bit off-kilter with just 42 first downs in five games – its fewest since 2018. On the other hand, Aaron Rodgers faces a tough defense against the Bills Ranks in the top 15 in both pass and goal defense.

The Bills have a +7 advantage in the turnover battle, while the Jets are even. This could be a key factor in what is expected to be a close game.

Bills – Review of the Jets’ last game

Invoices: CJ Stroud passed for 331 yards and a touchdown and Ka’imi Fairbairn hit a 59-yard field goal as time expired to give the Houston Texans a 23-20 victory over the Bills on Sunday. The Texans (4-1) had built a 20-3 lead after a field goal in the third quarter, but the Bills stormed back with 17 unanswered points to tie the game with about three and a half minutes left. Stroud was warned for intentional grounding on third down, leading to a fourth-and-15 and pushing the Texans out of field goal range with under a minute left. Houston’s punt brought the Bills to their own 3-yard line and after three incomplete passes, Buffalo punched back to the Texans. A 5-yard run by Dare Ogunbowale set up Fairbairn’s winning score.

Jets: Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has lost both times he played in London and returned to the East Coast “rejuvenated” after throwing three interceptions in a 23-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. The Jets are 2-3), and Rodgers said after the game that he had a sprained ankle, a week after struggling with a swollen knee. “We are playing below our potential. Too many mistakes,” Rodgers said. “We are slow starters. Too many mental mistakes. Generally just too many errors. That’s hard to overcome and then I have to worry about football. I can’t turn the ball over three times and win in this league.”

If he’s out, Buffalo’s other receivers will have to find a way to make up for production. The Bills receivers combined for four catches on 18 targets last week.

Jets: WR Garrett Wilson. Former Ohio State Buckeye has bounced back after a slow start to the season, catching a career-high 13 passes for a season-high 101 yards on a career-high 22 targets last week.
