- Michael Hurley serves up some still-warm leftover thoughts: If the Patriots had a “good loss” earlier this season in Seattle, then Monday night’s just-by-the-skin-of-their-teeth 30-27 win over the Jets has to go down as a “bad win.” /Good read, the gifs and comments are hilarious, but this year there are no “bad wins”, lol.
