New England Patriots vs New York Jets

The Patriots vs Jets is without a doubt the strongest rivalry in the NFL right now. The hype leading up to this game is huge as always but there has been a lack of trash talk even with a Jets coach (Rex Ryan) who seems to talk trash more than he actually coaches. As the game kicked off and the first quarter progressed the Patriots sent a message with their defense giving up zero points while Gostkowski added on two field goals to end the quarter with the Patriots leading 6-0. The Jets came back immediately in the second quarter with a forced safety early to get on the board 6-2. The Jets offense were able to tack on a two yard touchdown run from Mark Sanchez to take the lead 6-9. Running the two minute drill that he has become famous for Tom Brady marched the Patriots down the field. Then with only 9 seconds left in the quarter Brady hit Rob Gronkowski in the end zone taking the lead as the second quarter ended, 16-9. The Third quarter had the Patriots picking up right where they left off adding on ten more point with a Brady touchdown and Gostowski field goal. The defense also showed more of the same shutting down the Jets in the quarter for the second time in the game. At the start of the fourth quarter the Patriots had a commanding 23-9 lead. Going in to desperation the Jets were able to add on one more touchdown cutting the Patriots lead to only 7 points. Responding well, the offense came right back adding on another touchdown making it a two possesion game.Then with their backs against the wall and the fourth quarter running out Mark Sanchez cracked underneathe th pressure and threw a pick six to Ninkovich securing the win for the Patriots increasing their record to 6-3.
