An inside look at Thursday’s Jets-Patriots NFL Week 3 matchup at MetLife Stadium.
This is a battle of former first-round picks who are off to strong, if not dominant starts to the season. Wilson has had some really impressive catches in the first two games, coming up with clutch third-down catches. Last week, he had a huge third-down catch on the game-winning drive. But he has yet to reach the end zone, and his overall numbers don’t jump out.
The Jets expect Gonzalez to travel with Wilson, as he has with the No. 1 receiver in the first two weeks. Wilson got a heavy dose of that last week when Titans No. 1 corner La’Jarius Sneed followed him for almost the entire game. “This league is tough,” Wilson said. “That’s what it is. It’s definitely tough. You get the better player on you. It’s a game plan thing and we’ve got to be ready for it. You can’t just crown people before the game is how I feel about it.”The Jets have been terrible on Thursday night for a long time, but they change that here. I think Aaron Rodgers and the offense put together a more complete performance and the defense dominates Jacoby Brissett and the Patriots.
“It’d be a boondoggle to keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said, “so you know, we’ve got to change a couple things, we’ve got to be a little sharper, we’ve got to start faster. We’ve been starting really slow the first two weeks, so we’ve got to start faster, put something together in the first 15 , give our defense a chance to play with a lead.”Thursday nights have not been kind to the Jets.
