He came in the game to have Marcus Cannon move to an eligible extra TE.\u00a0 But by doing this, Cannon if not exercising the eligible TE on the next play has to be the one that comes out.\u00a0 On the next play, Wynn was beaten to the outside by Bryce Huff and he knocked Mac Jones&#8217;s hand as he was trying to release the pass and Jones threw up a wounded duck that was intercepted.\u00a0 That INT is not on Jones but on the poor play of the O-line.\u00a0 How would Jones be playing if he had the play of the Offensive Line from last season?<\/li>\n<li>Cole Strange was even worse. He was called for two holding penalties and gave up a sack.\u00a0 He was taken out of the game and Wynn replaced him at LG.\u00a0 The loss of David Andrews, who had been holding Strange\u2019s hand, showed up here in this game.<\/li>\n<li>James Ferentz is just not big enough to handle someone like Quinnen Williams.<\/li>\n<li>The Jets&#8217; front 4 were magnificent. I was very impressed with John Franklin\u2013Myers, despite the fact that he was called for the crucial roughing the Quarterback penalty when he launched himself at mac Jones, eliminating the pick-six.\u00a0 Even when subs came in they also applied pressure.\u00a0 I would love to see the number of QB hurries Mac Jones had.<\/li>\n<li>I thought that Mac Jones made some big plays with his feet and a few 3<sup>rd<\/sup> down completions.<\/li>\n<li>I loved how the coaches had Jones come out in a no-huddle offense to open the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> This didn\u2019t allow the Jets to make any defensive player substitutions. They got tired and were less effective.<\/li>\n<li>The Patriots took what they were given with underneath stuff to Stevenson and short passes to Jakobi Myers.<\/li>\n<li>Mac Jones got the ball out quickly during this drive.<\/li>\n<li>The near pick-six, nullified by a roughing the QB penalty, was a miscommunication between Jakobi Meyers and Jones. Jones threw it to the outside and Myers cut inside.\u00a0 In real-time, It looked worse, like Jones was throwing it right to the Jets&#8217; D-back.<\/li>\n<li>That roughing the QB penalty was legitimate since the DE launched himself at Jones.\u00a0 It has been called consistently all season and the Jets have nothing to argue about.<\/li>\n<li>The other controversial penalty was unnecessary roughness when CJ Mosely hit Mac Jones in the head as he was going down. Jones was a runner, but Mosely can\u2019t give the runner a forearm shiver to the head.\u00a0 That\u2019s targeting and he deserved the penalty.<\/li>\n<li>The failure of De\u2019Marcus Mitchell to down the ball at the one-yard line should have been challenged. Mitchell controlled the ball and it is down where he touched it.\u00a0 He had control.<\/li>\n<li>Rhamondre Stevenson had a great game as an all-around back. He ran for 71 yards and caught 7 passes for 72 yards.\u00a0 \u00a0His pass-blocking and blitz pickup are very good too.<\/li>\n<li>The Patriots\u2019 Defense shut down the Jets&#8217; running game (51 yards allowed) and forced Zach Wilson to try and beat them.\u00a0 The Patriots&#8217; Defense was credited with 20 QB hurries in this game.<\/li>\n<li>Zach Wilson was bad. He was 20-41 (&lt;50%), for 355 yards, 2 TDs, 3 INTs, and was sacked twice.\u00a0 He scrambled out of numerous sacks and ran around like a chicken with his head cut off.\u00a0 The two INTs by Devin McCourty were the result of Wilson throwing the ball downfield on a hope and prayer.\u00a0 The Jets won the last two games when Wilson had no turnovers.<\/li>\n<li>Jakobi Meyers had a great game with 9 catches for 60 yards and a TD. He was targeted 12 times.\u00a0 Thornton had one catch as did Agholor.<\/li>\n<li>Davante Parker was hurt on the 1<sup>st<\/sup> play from scrimmage on what should have been an easy pitch and catch. Parker ran a quick slant but Jones threw the ball late and slightly behind him, allowing the DB to break it up.\u00a0 If Jones had led him it was a catch.<\/li>\n<li>I thought Jabrill Peppers had a good game and hit hard. He took a late-hit penalty out of bounds (good call).\u00a0 Peppers led the team with 8 tackles.<\/li>\n<li>Have to give kudos to Nick Folk for his consistency on his 5 Field Goals. He even hit one from 52 yards.\u00a0 Greg Zuerlein missed an FG for the Jets and that took the air out of the crowd.<\/li>\n<li>Mac Jones threw the ball from the shotgun a lot today. You rarely saw him under center and drop back.\u00a0 I wonder if that is because those dropback steps are the ones that hurt him the most.\u00a0 I later found out that when Jones is under center he has only thrown 11 times all season.\u00a0 However, they caught the Jets trying to beat the Pats by exploiting one of their tendencies. \u00a0\u00a0When under center and having Damien Harris in the backfield, it is a running play nearly 100% of the time.\u00a0 Jones caught the Jets in a run blitz and did a beautiful play-action pass, connecting with Hunter Henry for a 22-yard gain.\u00a0 We need to see more of that.<\/li>\n<li>Rumors were swirling that Mac Jones was having numbness in his toes last week. That could be that his wrap for the high ankle sprain is too tight and is cutting off circulation.<\/li>\n<li>The Patriots\u2019 left too many points on the field by settling for FGs rather than getting the ball in the end zone. You can\u2019t do that and expect to beat good teams.<\/li>\n<li>I think there are too many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to Mac Jones. One time on the bench he had Bill Belichick, Joe Judge, and Matt Patricia in his ear.\u00a0 Why wasn\u2019t Patricia over with the swiss cheese Offensive line?\u00a0 Instead, they left assistant O-line coach Billy Yates there to clean things up.<\/li>\n<li>The Patriots&#8217; Special Teams had their best game of the season.\u00a0 The Patriots&#8217; starting Field Position was at their own 43.<\/li>\n<li>Let\u2019s not forget that Mac Jones is 4 weeks from his injury. That is the same timeframe he would have had if he had the surgery.\u00a0 Jones wanted to prove he could rehab without surgery and be back in the same timeframe.\u00a0 I think Jones played a lot better than he is being given credit for.<\/li>\n<li>Congratulations to coach Belichick for his 325th victory and sole possession of 2nd place all time.\u00a0 Considering this is the Salary Cap and Unrestricted Free Agency era this means more than having the overall record.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Patriots are right where I expected them to be after 8
