The Patriots were demolished by the Jets on Thursday Night Football, and the team’s leaders aren’t holding back about how bad of a performance it was.
“It was real tough. Divisional game. Prime time,” safety Jabrill Peppers said. “We came out and got our a– kicked. Plain and simple.”
The Patriots never led. They had one offensive play go for more than 20 yards. Aaron Rodgers sliced and diced the Patriots’ defense, which gave up 400 yards for the first time this season. Their only points came on a field-goal from Joey Slye.
