Jets' Zach Wilson looking to leave his struggles against the Patriots in the past

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Zach Wilson certainly is not alone in having a tough time finding success against the New England Patriots' defense.

But the New York Jets quarterback has had some of his worst moments while facing Bill Belichick's bunch. And that's something he hopes to change Sunday when the teams square off at MetLife Stadium.

“I just need to be smart with the ball,” Wilson said Thursday. “Especially last time we played them at home, a lot of them were just dumb plays by me. I need to play one play at a time, be efficient with the football, trust what I'm seeing and play ball.
