On Sunday, the New York Jets lost to the Patriots 15-10, this extends the Patriots winning streak to 15 against Gang Green.
Facing the possibility of going 0-3 for the first time since 2000, the Patriots made sure that wasn’t the case after falling short of victories. Thanks to a Mac Jones touchdown pass to Pharaoh Brown and a late safety by linebacker Matthew Judon, the Patriots got the edge over their longtime rivals.
“It’s been like this three weeks in a row for us,” longtime coach Bill Belichick said. “It was good to come out on the good end of it.”
Zach Wilson, who made his second start in place of the injured Aaron Rodgers, only threw for 157 pass yards and was 18 for 36 with no touchdowns. He was not able to affect the game that much, save for a solid possession in the fourth quarter, which was capped off by a 1-yard touchdown from Nick Bawden.
