John Middlekauff reacts to the New York Jets’ dominant 24-3 victory over the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football. John admits he was wrong in predicting a Patriots win, as they were thoroughly outplayed on national TV, largely due to Aaron Rodgers’ impressive performance at quarterback for the Jets. Rodgers looked as sharp as ever, showcasing his ability to throw accurately and move effectively outside the pocket. On the other hand, the Patriots struggled mightily, with their offensive line allowing constant pressure on QB Jacoby Brissett, who took a beating throughout the game. John also previews the Jets’ upcoming matchups against the Broncos, Vikings, Bills, and Steelers, discussing how, if Rodgers continues to play at this level, the Jets could potentially win all those games. From the Patriots’ perspective, John talks about the challenges facing first-year head coach Jerod Mayo as he navigates the growing pains of a struggling roster. He also questions whether Jacoby Brissett can stay healthy behind a porous offensive line, which is crucial for the Patriots’ plan to keep rookie QB Drake Maye on the bench this season.

Jets gonna jets but they have a weak schedule yeah they should make the playoffs
Rodgers with a vintage performance…..it was painful watching Brissett play QB….I'm sure he's a good guy in the QB room and the locker room but please make it stop
Well 3 Thursday night games in. 1 has been good, 2 have been awful. Way to go NFL
I believe Kraft. Bill B said publicly Mayo being the next coach was written into his (Bill's) contract.
Forget BRADY, AND PEYTON…as a WEST VIRGINIA kid being a won over CHARGERS FAN since the 1979 defeat of the Steelers… I will say it loud, AARON literally is the TRUE G.O.A.T. QUARTERBACK SKILL AND MANAGEMENT OF THE GAME regardless of SUPER BOWL appearances….NFL MEDIA hates on Rogers because he doesn't tow the WOKE IDIOCY that has polluted this awesome LEAGUE….HAPPY FOR YOU JETS FANS..!!!
Nobody:
John: “ it could get ugly and it could get ugly fast”
You said Rodgers couldn’t move anymore…
Good backs.
Wilson is a stud
If rodgers builds rapport with conklin you have lazard Conklin who get the "i look way better with rodgers" bonus
Could be a tough team
the minnesota game for the Jets is in london
It’s a looooong season. One game at a time. Aaron didn’t play for a whole year and was rusty. Excited to see him as the season continues. LFG Jets!
Bad match-up for the Patriots. Jets have an excellent front 7 and and incredible QB. Patriots can't throw and can only run the ball.
Saleh beat Tomlin with Zach Wilson bozo
Game was boring. Pats lost their starting left guard and tackle and Brisset was helpless.
Good job to the Jets. They beat an EASY team. The Jets aren't good. They aren't doing anything in the playoffs if they even make it.
Terrible betting picks. I’m out on listening to this nonsense again
Can’t believe I let the patriots get me excited😂😂 we are garbage
John. Love your show. Favorite right now. “a little old”. He looked better than a few years ago. He looked utterly elite. Top three.
Laughing so hard at Colin, where Colin was so wrong AGAIN! Seriously so sick and tired of Colin always ripping into Rodgers and always praising and making excuses for his buddies.
I’m shocked that Rodgers moved this well. And the Pats D isn’t that bad, yet he got his way every time
So no Colin? lol…waited all night for him so he can eat his words 😂. But we did beat the Steelers at Pittsburgh with Zach Wilson, so their matchup is winnable
Gotta to give him his flowers. Hoping he feels good this morning. Could not be happier for Aaron. Next!!! Credit where credit is due. 🏈 Jets💐.
I wish they would’ve put Maye in earlier. This thing was done at halftime
Bro needs chapstick!
Brissett never was good he never has thrown over 200 yards this year, he just played weak teams. Multiple people convinced me the Patriots will run the ball and the Jets can't stop the run, 6 points was too much so I added them to my no money private picks. My consistent below 500 record convinces me to never gamble, and I only pick games I like or someone gives me a reason.
I looked at the Jets schedule and said to myself preseason, they get to that 2nd Patriots game above 500 they will go to the playoffs, now if they beat Buffalo they can win the division. I think the Patriots will do the standard QB break in and if Brissett does not clear 250 or 300 yards the next 2 games, they will switch QBs. If Brissett is winning throwing 150 yards, why not let the rookie look good throwing the ball for under 150 yards. If he isn't Lance the other team for 3 games have no book, he should be able to reach a low bar of passing yards.
Vikings in London but okay
John said he LOVED patriots +6.5 lmaaaao
John you took the big L like a kid…. Saying Aaron Rodgers is just can’t move no motion with your partner in crime Colin. No no no… Aaron Rodgers is still the biggest draw in the NFL. He is the one player I will pay to see… SUPERSTAR
That tone is definitely changing 😭💀
After their Cinderella win against Bengals in week 1, Pats showed who they are against the J-E-T-S.
“It could get ugly and it could get ugly fast”😂😂😂🫵🏾
Great Arod performance = Cowherd no show.
All the weird salt in these comments. Great content John. You the best.
Like Rodgers said on the McAfee show.. dont jump back on the wagon later lol
No one can make me hate Rodgers. Love watching him make the media pissed
I didn’t expect Rodgers to turn back into mvp Rodgers either. I thought he was going to be a statue and he was anything but
Andy Dalton is 3-0 against Us.
Good on you John. will we see a :"where Colin was wrong" probably not.
You aren’t young enough or cool enough to say “give him his flowers” just stop it
@0:25 exactly lol 😂
Your boyfriend sounds like he’s choking on AR”s junk today.
Colin thinks Rodgers sucks.
I was told Rodgers is Jared Goff
Where Colin was wrong…. “This spread at 6 is outlandishly high. What are the wise guys thinking “?
