Although 0–2 Down, Patriots HC Bill Belichick Aims to Extend 2800+ Days Massive Advantage Over Jets at MetLife

Will a prolonged losing streak come to an end this weekend? Since the Tom Brady era, the Patriots haven’t won a Super Bowl and have missed the playoffs twice. However, one remarkable fact remains in their history. This weekend, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots will face the New York Jets in their quest for their first win of the 2023 season.

On the contrary, the Jets have had a successful season so far, winning both games against the Buffalo Bills and Cowboys. For the third consecutive week, following Aaron Rodgers‘ devastating Achilles tear, the Jets will rely on third-year quarterback Zach Wilson. With the NFL’s surprising and historic records, can the Jets secure a victory against Belichick and his team this time?

Will Sunday’s game witness the shattering of a record?

The NFL is gearing up for a potentially record-breaking event this Sunday afternoon. If Bill Belichick and his Patriots manage to defeat the Jets, they will shatter their losing streak for the current season and secure their first victory. On the flip side, should they fall to the Jets, Robert Saleh’s team will etch their name in history by breaking an eight-season, 14-game losing streak, spanning over 2800 days. Rich Eisen, during a recent episode of “The Rich Eisen Show”, characterized the Jets’ performance during these seasons as a series of “Impotent offensive series after another, after another, after another.”

He went on to emphasize, “The Jets get swept by Belichick, it’s insane, 8 straight seasons, 14 straight games, they have lost to Bill Belichick.” The last time New York won against New England was on December 27, 2015, so Belichick has this huge advantage. Moreover, it almost seems like a curse that Belichick cast on the team when he unexpectedly resigned from his one-day coaching position with the New York franchise on January 4, 2000.

However, whether they can break the streak this time remains the burning question, as the Jets appear to be motivated to win despite Aaron Rodgers’ setback. Additionally, the arrival of new coach Robert Saleh adds another layer of possibility of the Jets’ winning.

What did Robert Saleh say about the Patriots’ winning streak?

In their game against the Bills, the Jets secured a victory, possibly due to Bills quarterback Josh Allen‘s four turnovers. However, their match against the Dallas Cowboys exposed a less favorable side, with the defense struggling to contain Dak Prescott and the offense witnessing Zach Wilson’s three interceptions. It felt reminiscent of the Jets’ poor performances from the 2022 season.

Furthermore, if they continue in this 2022-like state, it’s worth noting that the Jets suffered two losses to the Patriots in the previous season. Regarding the team’s losing streak against the Homeland Defense, Jets’ coach Robert Saleh remains hopeful this time around. He stated, “I get it, we acknowledge [the losing streak], but at the same time, it doesn’t define this group today, with the group that we have, 2023 Jets.”

Hence, Saleh and his team will focus on ball control in Sunday’s game at MetLife, and it will be intriguing to see which side breaks the record this time.
