REACTION: Patriots Survive Jets as Offensive Struggles Continue

CLNS Media Sports Network

In their week 3 matchup against the New York Jets, the New England Patriots notched their first win of the season at Metlife Stadium with a 15-10 final score. With the weather being rainy, the Patriots offense failed to get their bearings and convert, relying heavily on their run game and defense to keep them in the driver's seat.  In this segment, John Zannis and CLNS Patriots reporter Taylor Kyles give their immediate reactions following the Patriots win, and what the team can build on moving forward.

00:00 So let's just start on the offense, okay?

00:04 Jets have a good defense, we know it.

00:08 But still, you know, obviously just a real inability to get anything going down the field,

00:18 it stays there.

00:19 Obviously the Jets can cover.

00:21 Jets have a good front.

00:22 I was impressed that the Patriots were able to run the ball.

00:24 I mean, let's just say their commitment to the run, it wasn't incredible, but they ran

00:29 the ball 40 times, they really went for it.

00:32 But the passing offense, again, just kind of sputtering.

00:34 And again, 15 points, Belbelichick said it himself in the postgame, Taylor.

00:38 Yeah.

00:39 15 points isn't going to get it done most weeks.

00:57 Win or lose.

00:59 I'm glad he acknowledged it because I kind of felt like a jerk going downstairs.

01:02 Like at first we heard from David Andrews, who fairly credited the offensive line.

01:07 They didn't allow a sack.

01:08 They ran for 150 yards.

01:10 Like they answered two big question marks.

01:12 We were saying, okay, they can't pass protect and they can't run the ball.

01:15 They can't find balance.

01:17 And they did those two things.

01:18 And they're, I think, the only thing supporting them in the game.

01:20 Yeah.

01:21 And that was clearly something they wanted to do because they kept coming out in two

01:24 and three tight end sets, sometimes using Pharaoh Brown or pretty often using Pharaoh

01:27 Brown as a fullback to kind of diversify what they were able to do.

01:32 And we saw that really be the lifeblood of the offense.

01:35 But you know, the offensive line was really the only, yes, that's awesome.

01:41 We found some continuity.

01:42 Let's go.

01:43 But other than that, man, I thought that the downfield passing game, I tweeted that I wasn't

01:47 sure what went wrong exactly because this is the second of three games where they played

01:52 in really bad weather.

01:53 So you can't discount the fact that it is harder to throw down field in those conditions.

01:57 There were also times where it just seemed like the chemistry was so off.

02:00 I didn't know who was at fault.

02:01 But at the same time, like Matt Jones was throwing a few uncatchable passes.

02:05 There were two to DeMario Douglas that I think should have been penalties.

02:08 But the refs were really keeping flags in their pockets for some reason on a few plays.

02:12 But it really killed them, especially when they were third down in manageable situations

02:16 where they could have gone to the sticks or, you know, just shy of the sticks, maybe gotten

02:20 something.

02:21 And then instead you see them take a shot that's not even close.

02:23 Like that kept killing them on third downs.

02:25 You had some big conversions and then you also had penalties.

02:28 Like there was a one drive, you had three penalties on a three play drive.

02:32 You had the one for too many men on the field where they got bailed out with a really impressive

02:36 all be a completion of Devante Parker along the sideline.

02:39 And then Cole Strange had a holding earlier in the game that ended up contributing to

02:43 them having to punt.

02:45 So they didn't turn the ball over.

02:47 That was huge.

02:48 And I think that's a big reason they won the game, because I'm sure if one of those drives

02:51 ended in a penalty and gave New York some momentum or better field position, this game

02:55 might have gone a bit differently.

02:57 So there were big, big good things to take away.

03:00 Again, turnovers, offensive line play.

03:02 But the downfield passing game being non-existent was really scary.

03:06 And we'll see if it is a product of the elements, if it really is just the execution, because

03:12 next week they play in the Dome.

03:13 So there's not going to be any excuses.
