As known since the 2019 season wrapped up, the Jets will have seven games against 2019 playoff teams (four coming in the home-and-homes vs. the Patriots and the Bills) and the 2020 schedule strength is .533. The Jets will reach the season's midway point in the Midwest against the defending NFL champion Kanas City Chiefs.
After passing for 4,031 yards and 26 TDs in 14 regular-season games, Patrick Mahomes helped the Chiefs overcome a 10-point deficit in the Super Bowl and capture their first championship in 50 years. Green & White safety Adams, who attended Hebron HS, and Mahomes, a Whitehouse HS graduate, grew up two hours apart in Texas and they are two of the NFL's young stars. Adams finished with 6.5 sacks last year and the athletic Mahomes better keep his eye out for the destructive force when these two meet.
