For me, it's all about establishing the run game. Miller is healthy again, and Damien Williams needs to see a fair amount of snaps as well. With Wilkerson out it shouldn't be as difficult to run against them, but either way we should expect a challenge from their front 7.

I also believe Dion Sims needs to be strong contributor if we are to succeed tonight. He's shown some strong flashes, especially last week, and I think we can rely on him as our TE1 for this week.

But the most crucial key to victory tonight for me is stopping Chris Ivory and Chris Johnson. Rex is going to want to limit Geno's throws as much as possible, and after seeing CJ Anderson obliterate us last week, he's got to be feeling confident in the run game going against us.

What are your keys to victory?
 
Most games I feel it's all about ball control- keep the opposing qb off the field. However, with Geno I don't think that matters. So for this game I'll say red zone efficiency will be key. TDs not FGs wins.

Well that and I'm wearing my lucky undies

THIS many points tonight!"

The line on both sides of the ball. If our o-line blocks well for protection and run, we won't be stopped scoring. If our defensive line can limit the Jets run game and pressure Geno, the Jets won't score much. Everything else stems from the line play.

I think the threat of Peyton Manning's passing game opened up the run for the Broncos. The Jets will not have that threat tonight. We should be able manage.
 
The key is winning the turnover battle. Our defense needs to come back from last week and make some tackles.
 
I'm not as concerned about our run game, but the D does need to stifle Ivory. Johnson is done, but Ivory can pound the rock. Sure tackling, that's the key.
 
We are obviously going to score points, so the key to winning is our defense playing well. Our CB2 and nickle CB positions have me worried. With Jimmy Wilson and Walt Aikens starting at CB, and the way we let Denver run all over us last week, this game is on our defense.
 
Our can't see our offense having problems getting to 24+ points as long as we control the ball 50% or more of the time. I could care less if it's runs or a controlled passing game.

I think the only way we lose if or defense doesn't show, does something like let the Jets establish a strong run game.
 
The Jets wil bring their bag of tricks tonight, and Percy Harvin will be a big part of that imo. And we will see a lot of short passes to Jimmy Wilson's and Walt Aikens's side of the field...and we know Wilson will miss those tackles, so we need to have great safety play. This is a game where Delmas and Jones need to make plays.
 
Hit them in the mouth early and they will fold. Don't let the score stay close. They have nothing to lose so watch for fake punts early.
 
How about our D learning to tackle
