The Patriots vs Jets live stream begins at 8:15 p.m. ET/ 5:15 p.m. PT tonight, Nov. 9 on ESPN.

The Patriots vs Jets live stream is on and it doesn't promise a lot of great ball play on Monday night. The 2-5 Pats are visiting the winless 0-8 Jets. Each team has failed to find its footing this year, with profound difficulty moving the ball, especially in passing. 

But New England occasionally pulls things together to get a win, and they are heavily favored to pull off another victory in this low-key NFL live stream. Despite facing several challenges of its own, the Patriots are currently favored by 10 points.

Monday's NFL live stream will present nothing close to the team that Patriot's head coach Bill Belichick had expected to field this year. Of course the loss of quarterback Tom Brady, one of the best QBs in the history of the game, was bound to hurt. But hopes had been high that Cam Newton could step in to throw solid games against rivals. That's generally not happened. He has thrown just two touchdown passes all season (Brady has 20) and has tossed 7 interceptions. Overall, the Patriots rank just 29th in passing offense.

Fortunately for Newton and co, they aren't up against much resistance. The Jets defense ranks last in the NFL in points allowed, yards allowed, passing yards allowed and first downs allowed. Ouch. As for their own passing game, the Jets don't have much to offer, either. Quarterback Sam Darnold is playing about as poorly as Cam Newton, with just three touchdown throws this season (but six interceptions). What's more, injuries have taken away his top targets. The status of wide receivers Jamison Crowder and Breshad Perriman are both up in the air following a groin injury and concussion, respectively.

With two of the weakest teams in the NFL going at each other, viewers of this NFL live stream probably won't see a lot of brilliant plays on either side.

How to watch Patriots vs Jets live streams with a VPN

Football fans, if for some reason you've had to leave your own "bubble" and you can't watch the Patriots vs Jets live stream, you don't have to miss the game. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. But you've got other VPN options as well. Here are our top picks.

ExpressVPN

We think speed, security and simplicity make ExpressVPN second to none.

IPVanish

You should also check out IPVanish, another of the best VPNs, which has unlimited device connections, and it’s also great for working around Netflix’s geo restrictions, so you can watch stuff on international Netflix plans that isn’t in your neck of the globe. Its annual plan works out to a shockingly low $3.25 per month, too.

Patriots vs Jets live streams in the US
