Patriots plav Jets for lead in AFC East
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The strange brew that makes up the New England Patriots in many ways defies logic. But it works, as the Patriots’ trip to the Super Bowl proved last year.
New England visits the New York Jets tonight in a nationally televised NFL contest that will provide an early jump in the AFC East race for one of the teams. The Patriots, who beat the Jets 26-14 in the AFC wild card game last December, routed Indianapolis 33-3 in their season-opener. New York edged Buffalo 28-24.
The Patriots are directed by Coach Raymond Berry, who was a Hall of Fame wide receiver with the Baltimore Colts. Yet, the team favors a conservative attack built around running backs Craig James

But Tippett said the Jets presented a double dilemma — they can ram the ball down a defense's throat and have as good a crew of receivers as anyone.
New England lost two of its longtime stars, perennial All-Pro guard John Hannah and defensive John Julius Adams, to retirement. Still, as All-Pro linebacker Andre Tippett claims, the Patriots are a closer group now than in any of his four years of terrorizing offenses.
The Jets overcame a noisy crowd and a highly motivated Bills team in the debut of quarterback Jim Kelly. Ken O'Brien then for 318 yards and touchdowns of 46 yards to Al Toon and 71 to Wesley Walker.
"They are confident and efficient and well-coached," Walton said. "They're the most talented team in our division and maybe in the entire NFL."
“Our defense is much better than last year,” said the man who led the AFC with 10% sucks last season. “I think our performance Sunday symbolizes that and the confidence we have out there.”
New England buried the Colts on Sunday as Eason completed 18 of 29 passes for 252 yards and a touchdown. Wide receiver Stanley Morgan, who caught the touchdown pass, suffered a mild concussion on the play but is expected to play tonight.
have no tie here.
Berry took over for Ron Meyer midway through the 1984 season. His practices are light, with virtually no hard contact, and he is more accessible than Meyer.
"You have to stop the run," Tippett said, "not neglect it and worry only about the pass."
Tippett likes the sound of that
"He's a players' coach," Tippett said.
