Jets trying to achieve rare feat vs. Patriots for first time since 2000 originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The rivalry between the New England Patriots and New York Jets has been pretty one-sided in the 21st century.
The Jets will try to take another step in reversing that trend Sunday afternoon when they play the Patriots in a Week 8 matchup at Gillette Stadium.
If the Jets beat the Patriots this week, they will sweep the season series against their AFC East division rival for the first time since 2000, which was Tom Brady's rookie campaign and Bill Belichick's first year as head coach.
