vs. New England Patriots, 10-2 (December 27th)
Next is the rematch against the New England Patriots. The last two weeks have been beautiful for New York Jets fans, watching that team go down two straight times. The Patriots have clearly been affected by injuries, losing the likes of Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Rob Gronkowski, and Dion Lewis at various points in the season. Tom Brady has done what he can, but he can’t play all of the positions.

Tom Brady has been great throughout his career against the New York Jets, winning 21 of 27 starts against the team. His completion percentage is over 61%, and he has thrown 38 touchdowns versus 12 interceptions. His greatest talent is his ability to make unknown wide receivers look like stars. He always finds a guy that will beat you, no matter what the roster looks like.
Remember when I said the New York Jets need three wins to secure a playoff spot? This is not one of the games that they will likely win.
