It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The Jets know how important this game is to the Pats, who must win to seal up the division, bury the Rats, and have any hope of catching the Ravens or Texans. The loss to the Ravens really hurt this team. IMO this is an absolute must win game for the Pats.
The Jets don't give a rat's arse about the importance of this game to the Pats.
They are simply clawing to survive for themselves.
We'll see everything and the kitchen sink tonight (and that's not only our Thanksgiving feast! )
As SMY notes, the history of the Pats-Jets rivlary between BB and Rex Ryan is that the Pats do much better in the second game of the season:
Patriots fare much better against Jets the second time around - Patriots - Boston.com
2009: L 16-9, W 31-14
2010: L 28-14, W 45-3
2011: W 30-21, W 37-16
2012: W29-26 (OT), ?
The second game hasn't been close the past 3 years. It will be interesting see if today holds form, in spite of the injuries and the short week. I'm guessing it will.
