Patriots improve to 14-0

New England Patriots “welcomed” the New York Jets to Foxborough on Sunday in their first match-up since “Spygate”. Freezing rain and wind hampered the Patriots passing game as Tom Brady threw for only 140 yards. Brady had no touchdowns in week 15, a first for him in 2007. Even with the passing game grounded, the Patriots found a way to win thanks to Laurence Maroney who ran for 104 yards and 1 TD. With the win, the Patriots improved to 14-0 and became only the second team in NFL history to do so (1972 Miami Dolphins).

The Patriots have clinched homefield advantage throughout the playoffs.

Next up: Week 16 vs. Miami Dolphins

Tom Brady Record watch: 45 TD (5 TD from breaking Peyton Manning’s record of 49 TD in a season)
