00:00New England Patriots visit MetLife Stadium, the New York Jets.

00:10The Jets are laying six points.

00:11The total is 38 and a half in this game and, you know, the Patriots have been one of the

00:16surprise teams so far, right?

00:18Yeah, they lost to the Seattle Seahawks, but this, you know what the, you know, this is

00:23where the odds makers aren't always right, right?

00:26The odds makers had the Patriots listed to, you know, the shortest odds to be the worst

00:30team in the National Football League this year.

00:37the league.

00:38But even though it's a bad travel spot for the New York Jets, this is their third game

00:44in 11 days.

00:45They flew to San Francisco.

00:46They go back home.

01:08I know the underdogs have been barking, but I sort of feel like this is a Patriot trap

01:13by taking the pats here.

01:16Their offense is limited and it should be noted they lost their best defensive player

01:20and their leading tackler for the season last week.

01:23All right.

01:24Losing Bentley's a big deal and a game change when he wasn't in the game after he left against

01:28Seattle.

01:30People always talk about the offensive side of the football and injuries, but defense

01:34counts too.

01:36So we'll get into this.
