The New England Patriots (7-3) were able to force 5 turnovers against the New York Jets (4-6) and cruised to an easy win.  Leigh Bodden got the Patriots off to a good start when he intercepted a Mark Sanchez pass and ran it back 53 yards for the first score of the game.  Bodden ended up intercepting Sanchez 3 times, and Sanchez finished the game with 136 yards and 4 interceptions on 8/21 passes.  The Patriots defense didn’t do as well against Jets’ running back Thomas Jones, who had 103 yards on 21 carries, but they kept the Jets scoreless until late in the first half, giving the offense the chance to build a big lead.

Tom Brady and the offense were able to get pretty much whatever they wanted.  Brady and Welker hooked up for some big plays in this game, as Welker caught 15 passes for 192 yards.  Brady finished with 310 yards and a touchdown on 28/41 passes.  Laurence Maroney also rushed for 2 touchdowns and 77 yards on 22 carries.  The closest the Jets got to the Patriots was 24-14 in the 3rd quarter, but the Patriots held them off the rest of the game and scored another touchdown in the 4th quarter to seal the win.
