Week 7: New England Patriots 54, New York Jets 13 (3-4) (Sunday, October 24, 2021)

A 50+ burger! :)

Fifty-four glorious points against the hapless Jets. Okay, so it was the Jets, but better to stomp an awful team that get stomped by one. And Mac looked very good, the receivers actually caught balls, the O-line protected the QB, and the defense was rollin'. Special teams were sharp. First win at home this season!

All-in-all, an entertaining game. Coach Belichick loves beating the Jets. He was actually smiling on the sidelines! :)

And Richard Seymour, newly ensconced in the Patriots Hall of Fame, requested this game as the one to honor him. Always extra energy during Jets Week! ;)

Can the Pats maintain a semblance of competence against the Chargers next week? We shall see!

The Pats won, Jets and Dolphins lost, and the Bills were on their bye week.*
