Can the favorite New England Patriots win against the New York Jets Thanksgiving Day 2012?

The Patriots are the first with the ball and after a sack on 1st down they are unable to convert so they go 3 and out and punt the football. A quick out by the Jets and the Patriots get the ball back.

A much better drive by the Patriots on this possession and they have a first down and are inside NY territory quick. New England unable to convert on 3rd down in the red zone and tries a field goal which is not made so they turn the ball over without the points.

A nice run by Shonn Greene and the Jets get a first down at mid field.Another first down with a pass to Jeff Cumberland and the Jets are within field goal range and pushing forward. On a 2nd and 7 they are stopped short but a holding call on defense gives the Jets a first down inside the 30.

A nice drive shaping up for the Jets but a pass by quarterback Mark Sanchez is picked off by Steve Gregory and New England gets the interception and takes over at their own 16 yard line.

As the first quarter winds down the game is still without a score and the Patriots have the ball at the 3 yard line and it is 3rd and goal. Quarterback Tom Brady for the Patriots with lots of time hits Wes Welker and they get the touchdown and the first score of the game. New England 7 to NY Jets 0.

The Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez and and he is moving NY comfortably down field similar to the last drive that ended in an interception. Since they did not get the first down the Jets go for it on fourth and 1, but are stopped at about the line of scrimmage, but then suddenly the football pops out and it is recovered by New England. The Patriots will take over on the turnover and start the drive from their own 17.

Then a pass play to Shane Vereen and he runs it into the end zone for the 6. The Patriots extend their lead to 14 to 0 against the Jets.

Before you know it on another drive the Jets once again appear to be doing ok but a fumble recovered by Julian Edelman is run back for a touchdown and the Patriots now have a 4 touchdown lead with the score at 28 to 0 against the Jets.

And for the 5th time tonight the Patriots get in to the end zone and the score is at 35 to 0 with 3 minutes left in the first half. And may I remind you that they have score all 35 points in the second quarter.

Finally able to score the Jets take the field goal with 7 seconds left in the first half so they go to the locker room at half time with a score of 3 Jets to 35 Patriots.
