Game #16 The Finale - NY Jets vs Patriots 12/30/2018 1:00

[BigKen]

Hightower is back.

 

[BigKen]

Darnald loses the ball and van Noy picks it up and goes 45 yards for the TD, 28-3 Patriots.

Thank you defense. Play like this in the playoffs and the Patriots are Suoer Bowl bound.

Two huge sacks and two fumble recoveries, one for a TD and the other taken inside the 10.

 

[BigKen]

Jets have run 30 offensive plays and 19 have been for negative yardage.

Defense is playing the way we've hoped all year.

Rivers is playing really well in place of Claiborn who is a coach's decidion to be inactive.

 

[PatsFan2003]

Very nice to see the Patriots taking care of business as expected without any drama.

EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE PLAYING THE PATHETIC JETS, nice to see Brady mostly on target and mobile. Of course the receivers were pretty open all day.

Boring when boring is good.

 

[BigKen]

McCourty will be in the concussion protocol and most likely will be available for the playoffs.

Good game all around. Great way to finish the season and get prepared for the playoffs.

Patriots now have two weeks off to rest and prepare.

Now that was a good sign heading into the bye, yes like someone said it was only the jets but the offense got to wotk in sync and that last td drive is what this offense should look like little bit of everything but effective and kept the d guesing.

Now lets have the seeds hold up and see the texans instead of kc,la,balt or pitt first game. Let whoever 4 5 is battle it out and go into the 1 . Anything could happen there and if the pats take care of business they could be home for the afccg. Amything is possible. Can only hope.

But looked good heading into bye and hope it keeps up.

Jets.

Pats will be one and done in the playoffs, This team is old and slow. A big rebuild is coming.

Patriots looked pretty good on all 3 phases of the game today and that is great heading into the play-offs. Hope McCourty is ok and can play... Congrats to Brady for getting over 6000 completions!

Yes it was a game against the Hapless Jets but it was a solid win today!

Overall good game.
Brady still missing open receivers is a concern.
The team still taking dumb penalties.
Decent season. Go try and get healthy and let's see where the playoffs take us.

Well let's hope this team does not have to play the Ravens. I have been saying for at least two years now with teams getting lighter and faster on D, big bruising RBs are the answer and the Raven have that, and a solid D. That team is built for the playoffs. We have not stopped the run all year so the Ravens are a team that worry me.

The Ravens should've lost to the Browns if the Browns didn't suddenly remember they were the Browns in the waning minutes of the game. While our history with the Ravens gives me the jitters I think BB can game plan effectively for their offense. Stop the run and likely win the game. I'm not saying it's an easy task, just saying they've had teams in the past that made me more nervous than this one.

I personally think the AFC playoff teams are pretty evenly stacked and won't be surprised by anybody beating anybody else.

I would prefer to play the Ravens.

Their D makes me a tad nervous and again and I hope I am wrong. This team cannot stop the run and if I am the Raven I would run it down the Pats throat, keep TB off the field and rely on the D to pressure TB. They just seem like they are built to beat us

Yeah that's nothing, no other way that could have gone down. One ref thought he crossed the line that play happens in a split second, I don't blame the refs for that,
