The Patriots won the coin toss and deferred, giving Aaron Rodgers and the Jets offense first on the field. After a pair of first downs, a penalty drawn by Anfernee Jennings and a sack by Deatrich Wise, the Jets pulled it back. On 3rd-and-19, Rodgers’ quick pass was completely off the sticks.

New England’s first drive was short and they quickly found themselves down three goals with little chance.

The Jets’ next drive started in a similar fashion with a pair of first downs. New England’s run defense then felt the loss of Ja’Whaun Bentley with the addition of an unnecessary roughness penalty on Jahlani Tavai that put them in the red zone. Rodgers eventually hit Allen Lazard on a speedy hitter that got loose off Alex Austin and took him 10 yards for a score. (Patriots 0 : 7 Jets)
