Michael Carter had a pair of 1-yard touchdown runs after big catch-and-run plays by Breece Hall, helping New York stop a 12-game skid against division opponents.

"The expectation is changing," quarterback Zach Wilson said. "We’re expecting to come in here and win ... and be shocked when we don’t.

"That’s how the mindset needs to be for everybody."

Wilson, Hall and Braxton Berrios also rushed for scores, sending the Jets to their first 3-2 start since 2017. It was the franchise's first win against a division rival since topping Buffalo in Week 17 of the 2019 season.

"We’re still getting every team's best shots, regardless of us being the Jets," said Hall, who finished with 97 yards on 18 carries and 100 yards receiving on two catches. "We’re not the old Jets. We’re the Jets now. And we’re definitely trending toward becoming a winning team."
