The Patriots beat the Jets 15-10 at a rainy MetLife Stadium on Sunday.
It wasn’t pretty, but Mac Jones and the Patriots managed to land enough punches on offense to ground the Jets and a woeful offense commanded by Zach Wilson.
The Patriots are now 1-2 this season, while the Jets fall to 1-2.
It wasn’t exactly a riveting performance from Mac Jones and the Patriots offense, but the Patriots’ defense feasted against an impotent Jets offense that more or less operated without a functioning game.
But regardless of whatever qualifiers you want to toss out there, the Patriots did enough to get in the win column with a 15-10 victory against a deeply flawed Jets roster without Aaron Rodgers at the helm on offense.
How bad was Zach Wilson and the Jets’ offense?
The Jets generated just 171 total net yards, with most coming in the fourth quarter. Wilson was 18-of-36 on throws with 157 passing yards.
The New York Giants beat the Arizona Cardinals 31-28.
They entered the Week 2 game against the Cardinals and the first two quarters were an extension of the Week 1 beatdown at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys with Arizona scoring on all but one drive and taking a 20-0 lead into halftime.
The futility was highlighted by a Daniel Jones interception that went right off the hands of running back Saquon Barkley for the second consecutive week.
The Giants did come out in the third quarter and show some fire on the shoulders of Jones, but each time they punched, the Cardinals punched right back.
Then came the fourth quarter and that’s when DJ completely took over and the game flipped on its head. Everything that had gone wrong was washed away and the Giants suddenly started firing.
The defense picked up stops when they needed it and the Giants offense, which couldn’t buy a point for six quarters to start the season, scored on five consecutive drives.
In the New York Jets’ second game of the 2023 NFL season, in a sunny and hot Arlington Texas, the Jets were dominated by the Dallas Cowboys, 30 – 10.
The first half action was dominated by the Cowboys, who moved the ball at will against the vaunted Jets defense. Only a long catch-and-run touchdown pass from Zach Wilson to Garrett Wilson saved the Jets from being down 15 points at halftime.
With the score Cowboys 18, Jets 10, the Jets took over on offense at their own 25 to start the second half. They promptly went three and out, as the Jets offense continued to look overmatched against the Cowboys defense. The ensuing Jets punt gave the Cowboys a short field as they started their first drive of the second half at their own 42 yard line. The Cowboys took advantage.
The Jets could do nothing and after another Jets punt the Cowboys methodically moved downfield before settling for a short field goal and a three score lead at 27 – 10 early in the fourth quarter. At this point the game was all but over.
The Cowboys intercepted Zach Wilson on the next Jets drive, giving them the ball deep in Jets territory yet again. Another Cowboys field goal made the score 30 -10 in favor of the Cowboys midway through the fourth quarter and the rest was garbage time.
The Jets got the news they were expecting but dreading Tuesday morning.
An MRI exam confirmed quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a torn left Achilles tendon that will require season-ending surgery, a source confirmed.
The Jets’ dream season has turned into a nightmare.
Rodgers was injured on his fourth play against the Bills on Monday night when Buffalo defensive end Leonard Floyd sacked him in the eventual 22-16 Jets win.
Slow motion replays showed a pop in Rodgers calf as the Achilles ruptured. Rodgers initially got up and limped a few steps. He then seemed to realize what happened and sat down on the field.
Jets coach Robert Saleh said after the game the team feared it was Rodgers’ Achilles and the tests Tuesday confirmed that.
