The Jets are entering this game with a 1-1 record overall and they have a 0-0 record in their divisional games too. They are 0-0 in their home games, 1-1 in their road games, and they are also 0-0 in their neutral site games this season, but they will be at home for this game. They won their last game against the Tennessee Titans 24-17. Aaron Rodgers was the starting QB and he completed 18/30 passes for 176 passing yards, 2 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions. Breece Hall led the team in rushing yards with 62. Garrett Wilson led the receivers with 57 receiving yards on 4 receptions. Quincy Williams led the defense in that game with 8 solo tackles and 1 assisted tackle while Will McDonald IV led the defense in sacks with 3. Brandin Echols came away with the only interception for them in that one.

The current betting odds have the Patriots listed as a 6.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Patriots have looked good in their games this season with their 1-1 record overall. They are coming off a loss against the Seahawks in their last one, but they put up a really good fight sending that game to OT. They also pulled off an upset win over the Bengals in week 1 and that game was on the road. This is their first divisional game of the season, but they have already been tested by 2 solid teams and Brissett has proven to be a good starter in this offense. Brissett isn't winning games with his arm, but he isn't turning the ball over which is huge and the team also has a really good run game to go with their good defense. Meanwhile, the Jets are also 1-1 overall this season, but they haven't looked great in their games. They got blown out by the 49ers in their season opener and even in their game last week, they struggled against the Titans with a slow start. They managed to come back and win that game by a touchdown, but a lot of that was also mistakes made by the Titans offense, something the Patriots haven't really been doing. The Patriots are going to play another smart game here with a lot of running and they are going to try and control this game by limiting possessions for the Jets with the run game. The Jets didn't really get any games with Rodgers last season so he is still trying to get in his rhythm with this new offense, and that is something the Patriots can take advantage of on defense to stay in this game. The best way to place a bet here is on the Patriots to cover the spread in this game.

“There’s always consideration in those weird spots. I did what I thought was best.” - Jerod Mayo on punting on 4th and 1 in overtime after their loss against the Seahawks in their last game. 

"It felt like he was really bringing power to his game today. I thought a couple of his sacks -- or at least one of them -- he ran right through that right tackle. If he continues to develop that, he can be a double-digit sack guy in this league." - Robert Saleh on Will McDonald after his team’s win against the Titans in their last game.
