This is a make-or-break game for the New England Patriots, who have not had the start to the season they would have hoped for. 

And an away contest victory over a divisional rival is the way to get back on track. 

The Patriots have beaten the New York Jets in the last 14 matchups, and they are looking to make it 15. However, the Jets have other ideas in mind, ready to snap that streak.

3 Patriots players to watch

• OL Trent Brown

Trent Brown returns to the field after missing the second game due to a concussion. His return is big for the team who have had many problems on the offensive line due to injury. Now with Brown back, along with Cole Strange, David Andrews, and Mike Onwenu on the line, the Patriots starting core could show what they are capable of. 

• QB Mac Jones

This is his time to shine. Mac Jones has a chance to prove himself in this game, helping lead the Patriots to victory. Getting that first win of the season could put them back on track and help restore confidence in the quarterback. 

• CB Christian Gonzalez

The rookie cornerback has a big task ahead of him, with Jonathan Jones ruled out and Marcus Jones placed on injured reserve. He has already proven to be a top defensive player in the league, having recorded a sack in his NFL debut along with an interception in the loss to the Dolphins in Week 2. Let's see if he can keep it going in Week 3.
