Bills vs. Jets: Thursday night football features key AFC match-up

The New York Jets host the Buffalo Bills tonight in what is turning out to be an important game for positioning in the AFC, as both teams hope to start the second half of the season with a solid win.

Two AFC teams are going to make the playoffs as wild cards and one of these teams is a solid bet for one of those spots. The Jets and Bills both have holes but remain defensively dangerous enough to make some playoff noise. The Jets, at 5-3, would of course love a win to set them well on their way. For the Bills, they could continue some forward momentum and move over .500 with a win.

Check out the full coverage at SB Nation of the game, with plenty of commentary and highlights.
