NFL Week 8: Patriots aim to end losing streak against Jets

In Foxboro, Massachusetts, the New England Patriots are struggling with a six-game losing streak as they prepare to face the New York Jets in Week 8 of the NFL season. The game is crucial for the Patriots, as they aim to avoid a season sweep by the Jets, who previously ended a 15-game losing streak to the Patriots last season. The Patriots' quarterback, Drake Maye, has shown promise in his initial starts, notably matching a historic record by Hall of Famer Dan Marino in his first two games. He now seeks to make further history as the first rookie quarterback to achieve 240 or more passing yards and two touchdown passes over his first three starts. The Jets come into this matchup having lost four straight games since their Week 3 victory over the Patriots, which adds pressure to both teams. The Jets have been challenged offensively this season, ranking 31st in rushing yards per game. The outcome of this game holds significant implications, as the Patriots must secure a win to maintain any hope of salvaging their season and rekindling their historic rivalry with the Jets.
