Patriots are great, but win over Jets just another example of AFC East's futility

The New England Patriots might have broken Sam Darnold on Monday night.

“I’m seeing ghosts,” Darnold said to himself on the sideline, in a moment that he probably wishes he wasn’t wearing a microphone for.

It’s not even surprising anymore. The names change, but the back-foot interceptions and general confusion have been a constant in the AFC East for almost two decades.

The New York Jets were absolutely horrendous in a 33-0 loss to the Patriots on Monday night. We’ve seen this story unfold too many times since Bill Belichick got the ball rolling on this Patriots dynasty.
