The New York Jets were successful in slowing the explosive New England Patriots' offense in their overtime loss.

“Rex (Ryan) historically has played Tom Brady and that offense well," said Eric Mangini. "There’s a formula to do it. Look at what happened yesterday: They locked up the outside receivers, and they clogged up the middle of the field and they played a post safety. That’s why New England couldn’t run. And unless guys like Brandon Lloyd can make plays, which he had opportunities to do yesterday, that’s the formula that’s going to keep going. That’s why they need that outside receiver to be able to do something to take the defense out of the middle of the field. That’s the way you do it.”

Lloyd was targeted seven times, but made just one catch.
