W2W4: New York Jets vs New England
Patriots Week 2
The New York Jets will be heading up to
New England for a Thursday night game against the Patriots, who like
the Jets had a close last second win in Week 1, as New England was
able to defeat the Buffalo Bills on a Field Goal by Stephen
Gostkowski.
- Geno's Encore
Geno Smith had a pretty good NFL debut
earning his first victory as a NFL Quarterback on Sunday against the
Buccaneers, and on Thursday night he will be getting his first taste
of the big rivalry between the Jets and Patriots. In Week 1 Geno
threw for 256 yards on 24 for 38 passing, with a touchdown pass, as
it was clear that the Jets didn’t mind letting Geno lose in Week 1
showing confidence in their rookie QB. Geno did however have two
turnovers in the game, as he fumbled and threw an interception, which
is something he will have to continue to work on. Maybe most
impressively about Week 1 for Smith was his ability to run the
football, as he extended a few drives on good runs, and finished with
47 rushing yards on six carries.
