What channel is Monday Night Football on tonight? How to watch Bills vs. Jets
Week 6 closes with an AFC East showdown of two teams on losing streaks looking to reverse their fortunes, the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets.
The Jets just fired their coach Robert Saleh after a 2-3 start and appointed defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich as the interim head coach. The team, which was a popular pre-season pick to make the playoffs, is trying to get back on track.
The Bills are coming off a second consecutive loss after a 3-0 start, a last-play heartbreaker to Houston, but they can take some control of the division if they win as a 3 1/2-point road favorite.

Bills vs. Jets predictions
Bookies.com: Bet the Bills to cover vs Jets
Bill Speros writes: “The good news is that we’re back to just one Monday night game this week. The bad news, it features the Jets. We laid the hammer on Buffalo at -1.5 in the early line. The Jets are in the midst of another tailspin. The Bills came up just short at Houston. This one should be a bit less stressful for Buffalo. Especially with the MetLife night crowd venting 55 years of pain and unfulfilled promises from the opening kickoff.”
