Jets WR Garrett Wilson on 14-game losing streak to Patriots: 'That's unacceptable'

The New York Jets lost Aaron Rodgers for the season in Week 1.

They lost in blowout fashion to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2.

In Week 3, they're facing a rival that's dominated them for more than a decade.

In the eyes of second-year standout Garrett Wilson, another Jets loss to the New England Patriots would be intolerable.

New England has won 14 straight games against New York.

The Jets' last win in the lopsided rivalry came on Dec. 27, 2015. Eric Decker caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick in overtime to propel head coach Todd Bowles' Jets to victory.

Decker hasn't played since 2017.

Fitzpatrick is now an analyst for Prime Video.

And Bowles is off to a 2-0 start in Tampa.

The 23-year-old Wilson was a 15-year-old freshman just starting out at Lake Travis (Texas) High. It's been a while.

In his 2022 Associated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year campaign, Wilson's first time playing the Patriots was an individual success. He posted six receptions for 115 yards in a Week 8 loss.

However, by the time Week 11 rolled around, Wilson was a non-factor, as he was held to two catches on three
