TEAMS: New England Patriots, New York Jets

Well, kinda."When you look at them offensively, [Tom Brady] doesn’t get sacked, they don’t turn the ball over, they lead the league in points, rushing is in the top five," the Jets coach said Tuesday, via NewYorkJets.com. "It’s like, man, I don’t know."Ryan gushed over New England's offense, which isn't hard to do considering it is looking pretty flawless as of late. "You look at the numbers and 'Hey, they’re struggling in this. They’re fourth in the league in this category,'" Ryan joked. "So that’s something that we really take advantage of."The Patriots lead the NFL in points per game (35.8), total yards per game (431.9) and turnover differential (20).

Rex Ryan Defends Bill Belichick’s Decision to Leave Rob Gronkowski In on Extra Point, Calls Criticism ‘Ridiculous’
