The Patriots hope to seek redemption in their final matchup with the Jets in Week 8 after suffering an embarrassing blowout loss in their only nationally televised primetime game earlier this season on Thursday Night Football.
Despite the chaos going on behind the scenes in New York, which eventually led to the dismissal of head coach Robert Saleh, the Aaron Rodgers-led Jets team was able to hand the Patriots a blowout loss, 24-3, to officially hand them their second loss in a row and start the ugly trend of what was to come in the weeks that followed.
Although they haven't fared well in that time either, as they enter this week's matchup with the Patriots with a disappointing 2-5 record, they just added Davante Adams to the team in a blockbuster trade to reunite the receiver with his former quarterback. That is a significant change to what Rodgers had to work with last month and could play a pivotal role in the Patriots' hopes of adding another win to their season.
Their struggling defense against a very beatable Jaguars team in London last week doesn't provide much optimism that they can get the job done back home this Sunday, but after suffering another embarrassing loss on the national stage, perhaps that will serve as motivation to work even harder to upset their longtime rival's season even more.
