In a mild snowstorm the Patriots faced the Jaguars for the first time since Jacksonville's 1998 playoff upset of New England. The Patriots defense saw something they hadn't seen since they faced the Tennessee Titans in Week Five – the opponent scored a touchdown in Foxboro, as late in the fourth quarter Kevin Johnson caught a 27-yard touchdown pass from Byron Leftwich, the first home touchdown allowed since Steve McNair ran in a score in the fourth quarter in Week Five – nearly five whole games. It didn't matter as two Tom Brady touchdown throws, an Antowain Smith rushing score, and two Vinatieri field goals were enough for a 27–13 Patriots win.
