The New England Patriots will roll out the red carpet for the visiting New York Jets in Sunday's AFC East divisional tilt.
Since getting blown out by the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Patriots have been one of the hottest teams in the NFL. They went into Orchard Park and handed the Buffalo Bills their first loss of the season, and they blew the doors off the 3-1 Las Vegas Raiders in a 45-17 victory in Week 5.
Fans are used to seeing the Patriots bully the Jets, but despite multiple roster issues, "Gang Green" has continued to play tough. They knocked off the Cleveland Browns in a stunning comeback victory last week, and only one of their three losses has come by a double-digit score.
