The Patriots went two games above .500 to move to 6-4 with the win over the Jets. The defense was outstanding, and with the game poised to go to overtime at 3-3, another great defensive stop forced the Jets to punt. Marcus Jones took it at the Patriots’ 16 and then raced 84 yards for the game-winning touchdown with just five seconds left.
The win pushes New England ahead of the Jets in the division, although both are now 6-4 due to the season series sweep. Miami and Buffalo are ahead of them at 7-3. All four teams are still in playoff position.
