The Patriots are going to be without a number of important players for today's game at the Meadowlands against the Jets.
Danny Amendola, Patrick Chung, Julian Edelman & Devin McCourty all downgraded to OUT vs Jets tomorrow. #nyj

At the end of the day, this is not going to be an easy game. The Patriots have been dealt serious injury after serious injury all season and still have a 12-2 record to show for it. Something about having Tom Brady seems to make up for all of the injuries.
With that said, this game is set up for the Jets to win. The Patriots do not need this game to clinch homefield advantage in the AFC. They have another next week in Miami where they can wrap up the top seed in the conference. While this is still a difficult game, it is the type of game the Jets need to win if they want to be a Playoff team.
