Patriots Nation is probably feeling pretty good about itself today, perhaps even bordering on overconfident. The Jetslooked horrid and lost Kris Jenkins for the season (not saying I am glad he’s injured, but it is a major blow to their defense), while the Patriots are being collectively praised again as a Super Bowl contender, even by the likes of Rex Ryan! It also helps that the Colts and Chargers, perennial AFC power houses, both lost as well.
But the Jets are not a team, or even an offense, to be taken lightly.
Why the Pats and their fans still need to take this weekend’s game very seriously after the jump…
