Injuries are piling up at the worst time for the New England Patriots, who lost 26-20 in overtime to the New York Jets on Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The Patriots only made things more difficult for themselves with one of this year's more puzzling tactical decisions before OT began.
After a James White touchdown reception with 1:55 left in the fourth quarter and an extra point tied the game at 20-20, New England won the coin toss at the end of regulation. Rather than choosing to receive, the Pats decided to kick off to start the extra period.
