Key Highlights
- For head coach Mike Vrabel and second-year MVP candidate quarterback Drake Maye, a victory over the struggling Jets will clinch the AFC East title and position New England to challenge for the crucial No.
- 1 overall seed in the AFC playoffs. The mood in MetLife is further complicated by the fact that this is the Jets' 15th consecutive season without a playoff appearance, extending the longest active postseason drought in all four major North American sports leagues.
- Compounding their struggles is a defense that has been historically ineffective at generating takeaways this year, having gone a record 15 straight games without an interception. This Week 17 matchup is a crucial final test for New England's championship aspirations and a game that determines whether they will head into the postseason as division kings or as a Wild Card team.
