The Buffalo Bills went into MetLife Stadium and pounded the New York Jets 45-17 in Week 10 of the 2021 NFL season.

The Jets have now allowed at least 30 points in each of their last four games and have won one of those four. Meanwhile, the Bills rebounded from their six-point outing against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, as the offense accounted for six touchdowns.

The Bills will host the Indianapolis Colts next week, while the Jets host the Miami Dolphins.

Buffalo Bills

Quarterback

Josh Allen dominated the Jets' defense to the tune of 13.1 yards per attempt. He was almost perfect throwing the ball down the field.

Josh Allen: Passing by  target depth

Target Depth Completions Attempts Yards TD:INT
Behind LOS 4 4 20 0:0
0-9 Yards 8 10 75 0:0
10-19 Yards 3 6 48 1:0
20+ Yards 6 8 223 1:1
Running Backs

The Bills still had trouble running the football (or even calling a running play), with their running backs managing just 11 rushing attempts for 69 yards during the first three quarters. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss each handled five carries, with Singletary going for 38 yards and Moss going for 16.

Wide Receivers/Tight Ends

Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis each went for over 100 receiving yards.

Diggs racked up 162 yards on 13 targets. He caught eight passes in total, with six going for first downs.

Davis was the big-play threat. He caught all three of his targets for 105 yards and went 2-for-2 in contested scenarios.

Offensive Line

The offensive line was charged with two sacks but only gave up five pressures in total. Ike Boettger gave up two pressures while Daryl Williams and Tommy Doyle gave up the sacks.

Defensive Line

It was a monster day for Ed Oliver, who came up with four pressures and three quarterback hits without a sack. He was one of six linemen who had multiple pressures.

A.J Epenesa and Efe Obada each had three pressures.

Linebackers

A.J. Klein produced three tackles for loss against the run. However, he was singled out in coverage, giving up six catches on eight targets for 85 yards.

Secondary

Levi Wallace had a big day, allowing only three catches on seven targets for 35 yards and an interception. Tre'Davious White, Taron Johnson and Jordan Poyer came down with the other interceptions.

New York Jets

Quarterback

Mike White threw four interceptions, with two of them coming from a clean pocket. His clean-pocket passing left a lot to be desired, but he was pressured on over two-thirds of his dropbacks — where he was even worse.

Completions Attempts Yards TD:INT
Under Pressure 5 16 73 0:2
Clean Pocket 18 27 174 0:2
Running Backs

Michael Carter was the focal point of the running game and received 16 carries for 39 yards, with 29 of them coming after contact. He averaged 0.6 yards before contact per attempt. He also caught four of his six targets for 43 yards, with 45 coming after the catch.

Wide Receivers/Tight Ends

Keelan Cole and Elijah Moore combined to see eight targets and only two catches. Cole caught an 18-yard pass on five targets, and Moore caught a four-yarder on three targets.

Corey Davis tallied five catches on seven targets for 93 yards, with four going for first downs.

Offensive Line

Even though the offensive line wasn’t charged with a sack, they combined to allow six hurries, five hits and 11 pressures. Greg Van Roten led the team in pressures allowed, with three.

Defensive Line

Shaq Lawson and Sheldon Rankins combined for a sack, and Rankins was the only defensive lineman with multiple pressures. Lawson was the only one with a tackle for loss against the run.

Linebackers

The linebackers were credited with just one positively graded play against the run on first review. They weren’t targeted much through the air, with C.J. Mosley being the most-targeted player. Mosley allowed two catches for 16 yards and a first down on three targets.

Secondary

Six players allowed more than 30 yards in coverage, with Brandin Echols allowing 90 yards on four catches that all went for first downs. Michael Carter II allowed 80% of the throws in coverage to be caught, as he allowed four catches on five targets for 53 yards.
