Drake Maye sparked a second-half surge as New England toppled Buffalo 23-20, going 13-for-14 for 182 yards and a 56% first-down rate on dropbacks. His aggressive, mobile approach unlocked the Patriots’ attack, letting Raheim Stevenson and Hunter Henry reap easier gains.

Buffalo countered with Josh Allen’s 50 rushing yards on seven scrambles and Stefon Diggs’ 146 yards on 12 targets, but penalties and a costly miscue slowed them. Christian Gonzalez shined for New England with tight-window coverage, signaling a brighter ceiling for the Patriots if Maye keeps climbing.

Aaron Glenn’s scathing postgame message after the MNF loss to Miami highlighted a Jets season spiraling toward 0-5, with penalties and a historic turnover drought piling pressure on a defense that has to salvage games. The Cowboys game offered a rough-barometer: Jets showed grit, but execution lagged, and the blueprint for a turnaround remains a work in progress. Fantasy angles hinge on whether the Jets can prevent self-sabotage and start converting drives into points.

Jets' offense stalls again as penalties and missed protections cripple the attack, with four starting linemen out and turnovers derailing drives. A promising 14-for-113 showing from Breece Hall is marred by a costly fumble that shifts momentum and drags the unit deeper into a season spiraling toward ineffectiveness. The Cowboys humiliate the Jets with a late, 91-yard march, while London looms as the next hurdle and leadership must answer the call.

Rodgers' absence looms large in the context of a passing game unable to sustain rhythm, and the defense concedes big runs after a push in the trenches. Fantasy managers should watch Hall’s workload closely as the backfield provides the only spark, while overall Jets production remains fragile and high-variance as they chase answers week to week.
