New York Jets (4-1) and New England Patriots (5-0), the two best teams of the AFC East, are set to collide on Sunday at the Gillette Stadium in Foxboro for a high-profile 2015 NFL season matchup.
The Jets have been impressive so far, winning two straight after a Week 3 defeat against Philadelphia.
Their last game was a determined 34-20 victory over the Washington Redskins at the MetLife Stadium where they overcame a sluggish start to take control of the game in the third quarter with a 17-point explosion, as per Yahoo Sports.
Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and running back Chris Ivory continue to dominate their opponents with three touchdowns in between them.
Meanwhile, New England remained undefeated so far in the season with a wild 34-27 win against their "Deflategate" rivals, the Indianapolis Colts, last Sunday at the Lucas Oil Stadium, via Bleacher Report.
The Patriots were up, 27-21, in the third quarter of a tightly-contested match when a trick play from the Colts went wrong, allowing Tom Brady and the offense to extend their lead to 34-21 in the fourth quarter.
New England is expected to face a tough challenge from the streaking Jets, but with Brady leading the offense, Bill Belichick's gang will outscore Todd Bowles' crew in a high-scoring affair in the end.
Prediction: Patriots win, 38-31.
