COMMENTARY
The blossoming connection between Jakobi Meyers and Cam Newton is not something that many would have predicted coming into the season. It’s an unusual sight, seeing a quarterback with Newton’s resume relying so heavily on a second-year wide receiver who played quarterback in college and went undrafted.
But the unlikely pairing was the driving force behind New England’s comeback 30-27 victory over the winless New York Jets on Monday night, and gave reason for optimism that the New England offense can start to turn things around in time to make a last-gasp push for the playoffs as they head into the second half of the season.
