The Jets have the 6th best run defense per DVOA and ypc. Their proficiency there - particularly compared to their abominable pass defense - is indisputable.
That said, I agree with your sentiments when it comes to the offensive coaching. NE obviously had some issues to start the season, but they've been excellent for the past three weeks, despite a patchwork OL for two of them. There really isn't much to complain about.
Yea, I will give Jets credit - they aren't bad vs the run. I think I am just a little surprised going back and seeing the Pat's had the second least rushing totals vs them this season (Raiders had the least) considering we have ran the ball on them 30+ times in single games quite a few times, had good yardage, and scored rushing TDS vs them since 2012. But then again, it was with Ridley and Ridley wasn't available Thursday night. They stopped the run vs us, they may of forgot we had TB throwing the ball as he was fantastic Thursday night, it's hard to get in stride when you don't have the ball much but TB was very efficient and looked sharp.
