"Yes, they escaped with a two-score victory on Thursday Night Football, which is always ugly, but they surely weren't as sharp as head coach Mike Vrabel would have liked. Still, there is hardly anything to complain about in Foxborough. The Patriots are an incredible 9-2, which not only puts them atop the AFC East by 1.5 games but has them currently slotted in as the No. 2 team in the entire conference."
"This offseason, the Jets signed quarterback Justin Fields to a two-year, $40 million deal. This was seen as a huge risk at the time, especially at that price point. To say that it has not worked out through the first 10 games of the 2025 NFL season is an understatement. Things came to a head on Monday, as The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported that New York was benching Fields after his Week 11 showing against New England."
The New England Patriots were not sharp in Week 11 but still secured a two-score victory over the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. The Patriots sit at 9-2, atop the AFC East by 1.5 games and currently occupy the No. 2 seed in the AFC. The Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins are gaining ground while the Jets continue to struggle. The Jets signed Justin Fields to a two-year, $40 million deal that has underperformed through 10 games, leading to his benching after Week 11 and a planned start for Tyrod Taylor. Fields has multiple games with under 55 passing yards, and New England's defense overwhelmed the Jets, further pushing New York toward potential draft positioning.
