Heading into the 2023 season, tomorrow’s Jets-Patriots matchup looked like a showdown between Bill Belichick and Aaron Rodgers.
Instead, Rodgers is out for the year and Zach Wilson is starting at quarterback for the Jets. Also, Belichick’s team is 0-2 and looking only marginally better on offense than in 2022.
Take all of that and combine it with the fact the forecast is calling for rain all day in North Jersey on Sunday and it shouldn’t be a surprise ticket prices are dropping.
The uStadium X (Twitter) account took note of the plummeting prices today.

A quick peek at the Gametime app shows two tickets are available, with fees, for $70 apiece. You can get in on StubHub for about $60 and up.
Even if tickets are looking cheap, tomorrow’s game has a ton of meaning for both teams. The Jets can ill afford to fall to 1-2 with games against the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles in the coming weeks, and New England clearly doesn’t want to start 0-3.
The Patriots have won the last 14 matchups against the Jets. We’ll see if Gang Green can flip the script at 1 p.m. ET Sunday.
