Jets lose 15th straight meeting with Patriots as Zach Wilson continues to struggle

In peak NFL drama fashion, the New York Jets had one last chance for a Hail Mary as time expired.

Quarterback Zach Wilson heaved the ball the 46 yards he needed, a throng of players fighting for a ball that Jets receiver Randall Cobb managed to brush with one hand before Cobb’s foot, and the Jets’ victory, slipped away on a rainy day.Two records were on the line as the Jets hosted the Patriots.

The Jets’ offense had one impressive drive in which Wilson distributed the ball broadly and decisively to his weapons. The 13-play, 84-yard scoring march narrowed the game to a one-possession deficit with 5:29 to play in the game, and defensive stands would give the Jets a few more last-minute heaves.

But while the Patriots struggled to finish drives, they had much more success than the Jets sustaining them. Offseason acquisition Ezekiel Elliott found rhythm with 80 yards on 16 carries in addition to a seven-yard catch. New England’s lead back Rhamondre Stevenson chipped in with another 59 yards.
