New York Jets vs. New England Patriots live stream: watch the NFL for free

It’s Week 18 in the NFL season, meaning teams only have one more game left on the schedule. One of those games features the New York Jets (6-10) taking on the New England Patriots (4-12). Coverage on Fox begins at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on January 7. Chris Myers and Robert Smith will call the game from the booth, with Jen Hale reporting from the sidelines at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Will this be Bill Belichick’s last game as the coach of the New England Patriots? That’s the biggest storyline on Sunday since the Jets and Patriots cannot make the postseason. Both teams want to win, however, a loss will help improve that team’s draft position in the 2024 NFL Draft. The Jets have lost 15 straight games to the New England Patriots, the longest active head-to-head streak. The last Jets’ victory came in December 2015, with New York edging out the Pats in overtime by a score of 26-20.

Will the Jets end the losing streak? Will Belichick ride off into the sunset with a win in what could be his final game in New England? The only way to find out is to watch the game on Fox this Sunday afternoon. If you don’t have cable, there are alternative ways to watch the game. One of those options is Sling TV, a streaming television service. You can scroll below if you want more information on Sling TV.

Former President Barack Obama was still in office the last time the Jets beat the Patriots. Because of New England’s dominance, the Patriots are favored by 1.5 points on FanDuel. Potentially seeing Belichick for the last time on New England’s sideline is a strong reason to tune in for this game. If you are watching outside the U.S., issues streaming the game may arise. If that’s the case, download a VPN service to use with Sling TV.

With a VPN, you will have more protection for your internet connection and increased privacy. This comes in handy while traveling and using foreign connections.
