Mac Jones, QB: It was a solid debut for the rookie starting quarterback, who completed nearly 75 percent of his passes for just under 300 yards, throwing one touchdown and no interceptions. But his disappointment after the opening loss was clear and he'll look to get help get the Patriots their first win of the season against the Jets, who will now have some tape to go off that could cause some additional difficulties. Finding a way to finish off drives with touchdowns will be a big key for this week.

Damien Harris, RB: Harris was on his way to one of the best games of his young career before fumbling away the ball at the Dolphins 11-yard line late in the fourth quarter. There's no question, the Patriots offense needs Harris and how well he's able to bounce back will be a factor to focus on. Picking up a second-straight 100-yard game and a rushing touchdown would be a good way for Harris to put Week 1 behind him.

Hunter Henry, TE: It was a quiet opener for Henry, who started to come on later in the game, finishing with three catches for 31 yards. That shouldn't be too much cause for concern, as this was Henry's first real game action playing for the Patriots after a summer spent dealing with a shoulder injury. The Patriots leaned into their two tight end sets against the Dolphins and they should have an even better sense how to use Henry and Jonnu Smith against the Jets.

Adrian Phillips, S: Phillips played the lowest snap total (33) in his time with the Patriots, but he was active in the game, leading the team with two tackles-for-loss. After being the best player on the defense this summer, it was surprising to see his reduced role. Will it increase in Week 2 as the Patriots start to lean into their strengths? Getting Phillips more involved should be a key.

Jalen Mills, CB: After battling an ankle injury all week, Mills had a solid game against the Dolphins, coming up with an end-zone pass defense that prevented a touchdown. The Jets figure to throw the ball more than Miami did and that will put a bigger spotlight on Mills and the rest of the secondary. Preventing big plays must be a key piece of the corrections from the loss to the Dolphins as the Jets are unafraid to throw the ball downfield.

Zach Wilson, QB: The second-overall pick was under duress early and often in his season opener against the Panthers. But late in the game Wilson started to find a rhythm, one that he'll hope to carry over to the game against the Patriots. His live arm and silky athleticism are factors that the Patriots will have to be prepared for, no matter what his debut looked like.

Corey Davis, WR: Davis led the Jets in the opener with five catches for 97 yards and both touchdowns. Earlier this summer, he established a good chemistry with Wilson that has carried over into the regular season even if it took them a couple quarters to find it. Davis figures to see plenty of J.C. Jackson covering him, as taking him away from Wilson should be a top priority.

Morgan Moses, OT: With Mekhi Becton expect to be out four-to-six weeks with a knee injury, the Jets won't have their best player and that should thrust backup Morgan Moses into the starting left tackle spot. Last week, the Dolphins had similar issues at the same position and the Patriots were barely able to take advantage of it. They can't make that mistake twice and Moses should see plenty of the Pats' edge players.

Marcus Maye, S: Maye had five solo tackles against the Panthers and remains their best defensive player but that should not deter the Patriots from taking their shots against him. Finding a way to generate explosive plays should continue to be a point of emphasis and that will mean attacking Maye and forcing him into binds.

Tevin Coleman, RB: Coleman led the Jets in Week 1 with a paltry nine carries for 24 yards as New York struggled to find any rhythm with the ground game. Their gameplan dissolved because of it, putting their young quarterback in the crosshairs of the pass rushers. The Patriots defense was good in spurts against the Miami ground attack but couldn't come up with one key stop at the end. This week they'll need to keep Coleman contained.
