New Jets coach Adam Gase had a simple message for his team when it gathered for the first time last week: toppling the Patriots is the goal.
The Jets have looked up to the Patriots in the AFC East for most of the last two decades. The Jets have not won the division since 2002. The Patriots have won the division 10 times in a row.
New Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley was asked on a conference call Wednesday what Gase’s message was to the team when they met last week to begin the offseason program.
