Was the lopsided result of Sunday's Buffalo Bills win more a factor of a hungry Super Bowl contender righting the ship after a surprise upset loss, or a dismal football team mucking its way through another discouraging season?
The New York Jets fell to 2-7 after Buffalo's 45-17 win, a score line that actually looks closer than the game was. New York outscored Buffalo 14-7 in the fourth quarter, with many of the Bills' starters out of the game.
The deluge of penalty flags that dragged on a blowout left Bills fans more time to chime in on several topics, from Stefon Diggs to Gabriel Davis. Unfortunately, there was no upper-deck pool to comment on this week.

People actually picked the Jets to beat the Bills. Like actual human beings 😂 #CantFixStupid

Have all the #Bills fans stepped back from the ledge? I wasn't worried, but at least they smacked down a bad team like they should have.

On Stefon Diggs' excellence
me:Doesn’t wear Diggs jersey for the first time this season Diggs:Hold my beer
— Drake Gyllenhaal (@DrOooMD) November 14, 2021
Everyone at @RecRoomBuffalo thought the first Diggs play in the end zone was a TD, and they played the Shout! song.It wasn’t. Lucky Diggs ran it back and caught the next one while it was still playing.THIS IS WHY YOU DON’T PLAY THE SONG UNTIL THE XP!(Will die on this hill)

I know it’s “just” the Jets, but #Bills needed a big response after last week and they got it. Team fired on all cylinders. Diggs in particular was incredible.

Feeding Diggs at will, jet sweep to McKenzie. Turning the clock back to 2020 and guess what, it's working.

It’s a crime that Stefon Diggs doesn’t have at least 10 targets a game this season
— Adam Gorski (@AdamGorski_) November 14, 2021
Never stop throwing to Diggs please.

I LIKE WHEN MR. ALLEN THROWS THE BALL TO MR. DIGGS

Grab bag
We did so much jet sweep stuff with McKenzie in 2019 and then the past couple years they've completely disappeared, it's honestly been something I've been super upset about.

Just incredible that the Bills drafted a difference making RT, from a non FBS school, whose team opted out last season. The draft makes no sense, but oh man I think Beane found a gem. Brown can play.

bills beat the jets by four scores, cam newton scores twice for the panthers, the lions are bad in a funny way... there is peace on earth once again.

Bills have 4 rushing touchdowns and didn't even use their best running back, Josh Allen

To say the #bills responded is a bit of an understatement
