The 3-1 Jets need to be careful that this doesn’t become a “trap” game, with at date in Foxborough looming next week. Despite six interceptions on the young season, Kirk Cousins brings a 68 percent completion rate and an 81.9 passer rating, along with an offense that is running at a 121 yards per game clip. On defense, the Redskins are giving up less than 100 yards per game so far, making them a very dangerous 2-3 team.

The Jets are going to have to bring their “A” game to win this contest at MetLife. Here are some keys to a Jets’ victory.
