Patriots Fell Just Short
After winning the first game of the season the Patriots fell just short in the last game against the Seattle Seahawks. The Patriots outscored the Seahawks 7-3 in the 4th quarter to tie up the game but in overtime, they gave up a field goal and they ended up 23-20. The offense didn’t move the ball as well as they did in the first game and Jacoby Brissett completed 15 of his 27 passes for 149 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions.
Hunter Henry was a huge asset and he finished with eight catches for 109 yards. The top running back for the Patriots was Antonio Gibson who rushed for 96 yards and 11 touchdowns. Rhamondre Stevenson also rushed 21 times for 81 yards and a touchdown. In this game, the defense is going to need to be good or it will be a long game.
Jets Bounced Back
They haven’t played all that well in either of the first two games of the season but they were able to pick up a victory in the last game against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans scored 24 points, including seven points in the 4th quarter and that was enough for the victory. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 18 of his 30 passes for 176 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Breece Hall also rushed 14 times for 62 yards.
Braelon Allen also had a strong game finishing with seven carries for 33 yards and a touchdown. After that performance, it wouldn’t be shocking to see Allen get even more touches. Hall also caught seven passes for 52 yards and a touchdown.
New England Patriots vs New York Jets Prediction
Primetime under are a lot of times the play, but this total is just too low. Aaron Rodgers is playing better football and he’s going to have a huge game here. The Jets running game was also good and it’s going to be much of the same here. I also expect Brissett is going to have a strong game for the Patriots and that will be the difference here as this game is going to be higher scoring. Back the over to cash here.
