Week 6: New England Patriots 24, New York Jets 17 (4-2) (Sunday, October 15, 2017)
Ever get the feeling that you're hopelessly behind? I still have nearly a dozen hours of TV watching to catch up on! Yeesh!
Anyway, here's the latest Pats' game review. I know you're all just DYING to read it. ;)
The game was one of those slugfests you get when you play a division rival. The Pats started out slow and the Jets played better than expected, so it was touch-and-go there for awhile. The defense is up to its bad old tricks and the offense is still sputtering, but somehow the Patriots managed to pull this one out on the road. Frankly, their record is better on the road than home so far this year.
It's disappointing at the lack of consistency and improvement with this team. I really don't know how the playoff picture will look. Too early to tell, but hopefully the Pats can figure out what's going on and fix it.
All I can say is thank goodness we have Tom Brady! Without him I shudder to think where this team would be.
The Pats beat the Jets, the Dolphins won, and the Bills were on their bye week.
