We’ve finally made it, as the season is coming to an unfamiliar end for those in Patriots Nation. This will be the first time that Week 17 closes out New England’s year since 2008 when the Tom Brady-less Patriots were unable to make the postseason despite having an 11-5 record.
This year’s version of the Patriots would’ve been extremely happy to come close to double-digit wins, as this week’s match-up against the Jets could make them 6-10 which would be the team’s worst record since Bill Belichick first season in 2000.
And, while the Jets may be a team that’s solidified that their second overall draft position, they are still a team that could cause problems for New England.
This is why the Patriots should be concerned with the Jets in this 2020 season finale.
