New York Jets News: Geno Smith has a Secret Advantage Heading Into Patriots Game

The New York Jets enter their AFC East showdown with the New England Patriots armed with a unique psychological edge: Geno Smith has already beaten the franchise twice as a visiting starter. In 2024 with the Seattle Seahawks and 2025 with the Las Vegas Raiders, Smith outdueled New England, combining for 689 passing yards, a 2:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio, and a 72.8% completion rate across both wins.

The Jets, who have struggled mightily in Foxborough—losing 14 of their last 15 meetings since a 2010 playoff victory—their longest winless streak in franchise history, could use Smith’s track record as a confidence booster. The Patriots, meanwhile, have dominated the series for years, including six straight losses by 14+ points, making this a rare opportunity for the Jets to break the trend on their own turf this season.
