5 takeaways from the Jets’ Week 2 loss vs. the Patriots

The Jets took the MetLife Stadium field in front of fans for the first time since Dec. 2019 on Sunday afternoon hopeful that they would be able to build on their strong finish against the Panthers in Week 1.

Instead, Zach Wilson was introduced to the boo birds during a four-interception performance that hindered New York’s ability to get anything going offensively. The defense could only hold up so long given how often it was on the field and the Patriots ultimately cruised to a 25-6 win.

Gang Green’s home opener was one to forget. Between Wilson’s lackluster performance and his struggles causing the Jets to come up just short of putting points on the board, Robert Saleh’s team failed to take that next step forward after seemingly figuring some things out over the final 15 minutes against the Panthers.

Here are five takeaways from New York’s second loss of the season.
