Week 16 Showdown: Patriots at Jets

The Jets are still in the playoff hunt after defeating the Cowboys on the road last week in a closely contested game. If the Jets want to make the playoffs, they must win out and get a little help from the Broncos, Chiefs, or Steelers.

The last time these teams faced off, the Jets lost by a touchdown in Foxborough. This time, the Jets are at home and have the advantage of a ravenous fan base that knows it has to win to keep the playoff hopes alive. Still, defeating the Patriots will be no easy task. Currently, the Patriots are the top team in the AFC and look the part of a defending Super bowl champion.
