ANALYST PREDICTION WINNER
Rich
Cimini		 PATRIOTS 27, JETS 24
I'll take Bill Belichick and Tom Brady on a short week over Rex Ryan and Mark Sanchez.
Ian
O'Connor		 PATRIOTS 27, JETS 17
Even without Gronk, Brady has more weapons to work with than his less talented counterpart, Sanchez. The Jets are home, but the Pats aren't the Rams. Season over.
Ohm
Youngmisuk		 JETS 23, PATRIOTS 20
Rex will find a way to slow down the Pats with no Gronk and keep the Jets season alive and well.
Kieran
Darcy		 PATRIOTS 24, JETS 23
It'll be another close call against the Pats, but not good enough -- the Jets' playoff hopes will be put to bed on Thanksgiving.
Jane
McManus		 JETS 32, PATRIOTS 27
New England has been prolific, but adjusting to life without Gronk may take a week. Not a short one. Sanchez will have to be on target to get the win.
Ryan
Ruocco		 PATRIOTS 31, JETS 23
The Jets will hang tough, as they usually do, vs. New England but the Pats have just a little too much firepower for Gang Green.
Don
La Greca		 PATRIOTS 24, JETS 20
The Jets are getting better but Brady will be too good in the end.
Michael
Kay		 PATRIOTS 27, JETS 14
I'm not sure the Jets D can shut down Brady but pretty sure the hoodie will have Sanchez back on his heels.
Patrick
McEnroe		 JETS 31, PATRIOTS 27
The emotional Jets will shock the Pats. Can you say, "playoff run?"
Robin
Lundberg		 PATRIOTS 31, JETS 23
The Jets will find some success against the soft Pats D but won't hold Brady & Co. down like they did Bradford.
