The NY Jets host the Buffalo Bills in Thursday Night Football, November 12 start time at 8:25 PM ET, at MetLife Stadium, E. Rutherford, N.J. Buffalo is going to continue going to him as their No. 1 receiver and he will continue producing now that he is back to full health.

Part of the reason Ryan looks forward to those games is because of quarterback Tom Brady, whose longevity Ryan apparently doesn’t understand.
Now, with Ryan Fitzpatrick due to have surgery on his left thumb, Smith will be asked to lead the Jets’ offense in the near future.
Ryan is trying to play down his return to NY, but the Bills will be fired up after a solid win against the Dolphins last week.
Buffalo News – Rex Ryan showed up in a Clemson helmet on Tuesday.
Before you bite my head off for even suggesting there’s a correlation, remember that he’s the one who said he wanted the Buffalo Bills to be a bully on the field.
The nod to Clemson was in honor of his son, Seth, a member of the nation’s top-ranked Tigers.
NY Jets quarterback Geno Smith has appeared in only one game this season after former teammate IK Enemkpali broke his jaw in an altercation that was reportedly over an unpaid $600 debt.
Finally, there’s Rex responding to a tweet from Jets safety Calvin Pryor.
“Yeah I mean he’s always done that”. But I never lost who I was, privately or anything else. He’ll make a few big plays, but then he’s prone to the killer mistake, so the key will be to take advantage of a possibly weakened Jets offensive line and get pressure on Fitzpatrick. “I know you guys don’t believe me, but it has not entered my mind yet about all those other things”.
“He’s mad because Clemson put it on Louisville again this year“, Ryan said.
And if you thought the short week would cut down on the amount of bluster generated for the primetime contest… well, you don’t know Rex Ryan, do you?
This is the NFL…..and as much as the writer of the aforementioned article would like to remind us that the NFL wants to change their image, deep down inside, the League and the owners love this stuff.
Enemkpali was claimed by the Bills the next day – an attention-seeking move by the embittered Ryan that was nearly as transparent as Monday’s “news”. While the Jets (5-3) and Bills (4-4) trail the undefeated New England Patriots, the Jets now hold one of the AFC’s wild-card spots, with the Bills just behind them. Why not? Right when you think these press conferences can’t get any more entertaining, any more freaky, he walks up to the podium like a comedian at a sold-out arena.
Not everyone’s was on board. And he questioned Ryan’s coaching decisions in NY by saying: “He could’ve played guys in the right position”.
On behalf of bearded Americans everywhere, Fitzpatrick boldly got the last laugh.

Minutes before, Ryan said “it was strictly about us against another opponent”. “I’ve got five kids, so something’s working for me”.
