THE WIDER PICTURE
| Team | SRS | SOS | MARGIN | TO +/- |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jets | +1.2 | -2.6 | +3.8 | +7 |
| Patriots | +6.1 | -2.5 | +8.6 | +7 |
SRS is how many points a side beats an
average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good
team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20.
SOS is how hard that schedule has been.
Full table.
IN THE BOOTH
Ethan Price
The numbers guy
Milton Williams lived in the Jets' backfield with 4 sacks, and it took Drake Maye needing only 11 completions to move the ball—New England's ground game was nonexistent, but the defense did enough damage to make it irrelevant.

Kyle Williams turned a short completion into 106 yards and a score—that kind of efficiency is what separates a Patriots offense that works from one that doesn't when the run game collapses entirely.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers —
none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that
did not happen.

Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
