1. The last two weeks, the Jets D has looked increasingly more like a Todd Bowles-coached unit. They’re bringing disguised pressure, and fast. Bowles loves to rush safeties and speedy linebackers (Demario Davis has flashed lately). Linebackers and especially safeties are not always accounted for in an offense’s pass-protection call. It will be interesting to see how the Jets play this week. In recent years, Bowles has backed off the blitzing and dropped eight into coverage against Tom Brady. But the 2017 Patriots offense is more vertical than horizontal; naturally, the ball is not out as quickly.
