THE TEAM NEWS

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

  • New England Patriots suffered a fourth straight loss last week as they went down to AFC East rivals Buffalo Bills, ending a long winning streak against that particular opponent.
  • They have some serious work to do if they are to remain in the play-off picture but sitting at 2-5, the Pats can ill-afford to lose many more matches this campaign.
  • Despite the long week, the Pats have a long list of players that will sit this clash out including influential CB Stephon Gilmore whilst there are also 14 players listed as questionable.

NEW YORK JETS

  • New York Jets remain on course for next year’s #1 draft pick as they fell to 0-8 with a heavy loss to last year’s Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8.
  • The Jets had shown some decent signs in their loss to Buffalo Bills in their previous contest but they were completely outclassed in last week’s 9-35 defeat.
  • A change at QB looks to be in the offing for the Jets this week with Sam Darnold listed as doubtful and that is unlikely to help their bid for a first win of the season.

THE PREDICTION

New England Patriots have struggled in their first season without QB Tom Brady and their hopes of making the post-season are already hanging by a thread. They sit at 2-5 and must go on a winning streak to put themselves back in contention, starting with this trip to face the winless New York Jets. The home team are 0-8 and are the only franchise in the NFL without a win this season as they close in on the #1 pick in next year’s draft. Despite the struggles of the Patriots, they should be too good in this one and they should come out on top of a low-scoring affair that produces no more than 44 points.
