Once again, the Jets came through in the clutch and found a way to win yet another critical game this week. In fact, every game is critical from here on out, as New England continues to play good ball (as much as I hate to say it), and is nipping at our heels.
New England has three road games remaining in the season, and none are extremely difficult. They play at Ford Field and Soldier Field. Neither of said games are guaranteed, though. They also play at Ralph Wilson Stadium and the Bills are improving.
Still, it's looking like that Monday Night Football game in Gillette Stadium may be the key factor in deciding who wins the division.
I actually think the Lions are going to give them a game on Thursday; as the Patriots come off the short week and a long, grueling game against the Colts. If the Lions can come up with a couple of big plays, they can hang.
Anyway, go Lions!
