On the offensive side the Pats rushing attack is fifth is fifth in the NFL but their passing game is fourth worst. Things look the same on the defensive side where they are fifth best against the run but sixth worst against the pass. The jets defense stepped up after being destroyed by the 49’ers in week one. They are dealing with multiple injuries to the defense and the holdout of Hassan Reddick shows no signs of ending. And 24th in rushing yards.
