How to Watch NY Jets vs Patriots in Week 8 with & without cable
By Justin Fried
The NY Jets are reeling following a fourth consecutive loss in Week 7, losing by a final score of 37-15 to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. With their season on life support, the Jets are desperate for a win this week against the New England Patriots.
One of the Jets' only two wins this season came earlier in the year when they blew out the Patriots in Week 3. That also marked the last time the Jets won a game.
The Jets are desperate to return to the win column, especially following the addition of Davante Adams and the arrival of Haason Reddick. The good news is that their opponents offer them their easiest challenge, at least on paper, in weeks.
The Patriots have won just one game this season, that coming all the way back in Week 1. Drake Maye has provided a noticeable spark to the offense, but this is still a team eyeing a top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
It's a classic AFC East rivalry game with major implications for the Jets. Here is everything you need to know about this week's Jets-Patriots game.

The last time the Jets and Patriots faced off was Week 3 of this season in a 24-3 blowout Jets win. The Jets have actually now won each of their last two games against the Patriots, their first winning streak against their longtime division rivals since 2009.
Prior to the Jets' two most recent wins, the Patriots had won 15 consecutive games against their AFC East foes. The last time the Jets won three consecutive games against the Patriots was in 2001.
Fun fact, that third victory was actually the infamous game in which Jets linebacker Mo Lewis injured Patriots quarterback Drew Bledsoe, kick-starting the Tom Brady era in New England.
