The Buffalo Bills looked like a new team Sunday with a 32-6 win over the Jets, but the Jets had a lot to do with that. New York’s offense couldn’t move the ball.
New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh has gone out of his way all season to defend quarterback Zach Wilson, no matter how much Wilson has struggled. Finally, Saleh had to bench his quarterback.
With the Jets trailing the Buffalo Bills 29-6 late in the third quarter on Sunday, Wilson took a seat. Tim Boyle replaced him.
Wilson completed 7 of 15 passes for 81 yards, one touchdown and one interception when he was benched. The game was a blowout when Boyle went in, but Wilson was a big reason the Jets were blown out. When the Bills led 16-0 late in the second quarter, the Jets had just 18 yards of total offense.
