The Jets got the ball back and punted, and Tom Brady hit Phillip Dorsett for a 25-yard touchdown. To continue the pattern, when the Jets got the ball back, they soon punted, and the Patriots got seven more points on a Julian Edelman touchdown. The Jets punted on their next drive, as did the Patriots … and then the Jets punted, and the Patriots punted, and the Jets punted, and the Patriots punted. Then, the first half concluded.

The Pats got the ball but were forced to punt on the first drive of the second half, but they got the football back when Devin McCourty intercepted Luke Falk. Stephen Gostkowski hit a field goal, the Jets got the ball back and punted, and Rex Burkhead found the end zone for another Patriots touchdown, giving them the 30-0 lead. The Jets’ next drive ended in another punt, but Gunner Olszewski muffed the kick and Arthur Maulet scooped it up for a touchdown. The two sides exchanged punts, and the Pats got the ball back. Rookie Jarrett Stidham entered the game for the Pats given their big lead, but his third pass attempt was picked off by Jamal Adams for a touchdown. The Pats then punted twice with a Jets punt in between. The Jets couldn’t get a first down on their final offensive drive, and the Pats took over, icing the game.
