FLORHAM PARK, N.J.—The New York Jets have been looking up at the New England Patriots in the AFC East for nearly two decades. And, consider this: Current New York quarterback Sam Darnold was only five years old then. “I think winning the AFC East comes along with beating the Patriots,” Darnold said. There’s also the not-so-distant memory of the Patriots rolling over the Luke Falk-led Jets 30-14 four weeks ago. The Jets had been struggling mightily without Darnold at quarterback, particularly in the two games Falk started when New York had just 233 total yards against New England and Philadelphia.
