Patriots should roll the Jets this week. Their defense is playing really well, Zach Wilson is still Zach Wilson and prone to turnovers, and the offense should be able to stay on the field and not turn the ball over in the first 10 minutes and get down 13-0/17-0... Jets have lost 14 straight(!) to the Patriots.
www.espn.com
"With a win, the Patriots (0-2) would tie their longest win streak versus any single opponent in franchise history. It also would tie the NFL's longest active winning streak against one opponent. The Kansas City Chiefs have won 15 straight over the Denver Broncos.
The longest streak in league history is 20 -- the Miami Dolphins (1970-1979) over the Buffalo Bills."
WR Wilson: Jets' long skid vs. Pats 'unacceptable'
Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson said Tuesday that New York's current 14-game losing streak to the Patriots is "unacceptable."

Chicago Bears observations:
The finger pointing thats already starting to go around on that team is pretty laughable. Justin Fields pretty much pushed the blame onto OC Luke Getsy for the 3 straight inside RB screen passes that resulted in a pick 6 at the end of the game. Fields took no ownership of the lazy slow pass into traffic.
Fields the entire game looked and acted generally disinterested. Same as week 1. His drop backs are beyond slow. Their so slow, that it's completely throwing off the timing of the routes. He routinely has WRs open and actually had good blocking. Fields had to have been told this week, do not scramble on pass plays. I'm not sure if that's why he was pouting and purposely trying to make the team look bad.
From what I've seen of Fields so far this year, he looks like a guy that doesn't put in any of the film study work. He's not understanding basic defensive schemes and what will be open. If things don't improve, I'm expecting him to be "injured" around week 6 with a hamstring injury.
The Bears could be to blame for not putting better veterans around Fields to help coach and mentor him. I'm not sure how coachable the guy really is.

Explains why there was just silence over him leaving last week with no reason why.
In other Bears news, penalty machine LT Braxton Jones goes on the IR.
Bears also will roll with a rookie QB from Shepherd as their backup QB now. Nathan Peterson has been released.

More than $100,000 of equipment stolen from Soldier Field as Bears' bad week continues
The Bears' very bad week keeps getting worse.

@Krankor doing whatever it takes
The thing that kills me about the Giants is that Daniel Jones is making 40 million a year and everyone/fans/media/coaches treat him like some rookie who just came out of an FCS school and don't know how to play ball. It's like he won a Make-A-Wish contest or something. What the hell is up with the lowered expectations over there? Jones is a good running back who can't throw the ball. He beat a Minnesota team last year that shit all over themselves and got paid for it. Guy is getting elite money but he don't perform like that.

He hasn’t looked good but that line isn’t doing him any favours.
Jones is heavily criticized in the NY media. In fact Michael Kay just opened his show today discussing that. Probably doesn't get crapped on too much nationally because he's just sort of there and kinda boring.
And he probably plays behind the worst offensive line in league and has most of his career. Honestly he'd fare better on other teams with better lines.

He's the third highest paid QB in the league so it doesn't matter what the OL does. When you get paid that much, you gotta perform at a high level no matter what.

That'll be their excuse in a few weeks when they have a rain game and the sod is falling apart. That was the only lawn equipment in the city.

Wisconsin needed an excuse to drink anyway.

Trent Brown should be back this week for the Patriots so that will give them basically their starting OL unit depending on who the RT ends up being. Marcus Jones was placed on IR, which is a blow to their return game.

Not to sandbag but our damn running game is kind of a joke until Punchy McPunch Punch finishes his suspension.

I know he was injured last year but what the hell... if you're paying a guy that much $$, maybe at least have him be active for ST if nothing else?!?
