The Patriots and Jets went into overtime in their first game this season! The Jets were down by 10 at one point, but Mark Sanchez lead his team to 13 unanswered points and almost a win. However, Tom Brady and Danny Woodhead marched down the field where Stephen Gostkowski hit a field goal to tie the game at 26 and then win it with a field goal to make it 29 in Overtime. The Jets had one more chance but Rob Ninkovich sacked and forced Sanchez to fumble to end the game and give the Patriots the lead in the AFC East! Let me know what you guys thought of the game!
