• The upstart New York Jets square off with the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, October 13th
• The Pack are priced as seven point favorites in the Week 6 NFL odds
• See the Jets vs Packers odds and picks ahead of Sunday afternoon’s game at 1:00 pm ET

Two teams with the exact same 3-and-2 record have two totally different narratives of their season through five games. Read on for Jets vs Packers odds and analysis.

The New York Jets are not used to this, as they’re over .500 for the first time since Week 1 of the 2018 campaign, while the Packers blew a ten-point halftime lead to the Giants last Sunday in London and are in danger of dropping to 3-and-3 for the first time since 2012.

Aaron Rodgers and co. have been staked as seven-point favorites, but a victory by a second straight New York team would send shockwaves through the NFL, particularly because it’s being played in Green Bay.

Should Packers Fans Relax?

There’s hardly any reason to panic in Green Bay, but when you’ve won 13 games in three straight seasons, the prospect of starting 3-and-3 would cause fans to hit the panic button. Star cornerback Jaire Alexander mused about the prospect of that happening should they lose two straight to New York teams, much to the chagrin of Aaron Rodgers.

Talked with Jaire Alexander postgame about the defense: “I ain’t worried, but if we lose next week, then I’ll be worried.”

I relayed that quote to Aaron Rodgers as the premise for asking him if he’s worried about the offense. He said no. Asked why not, his full answer: pic.twitter.com/szg2wXsTDJ

After a 16-point defeat in Week 1, GB had rattled off three straight victories until a surprising 27-22 defeat in London to the Giants in Week 5 and if there’s an area of concern it’s the fourth worst-rated run defense. That could be exploited by Jets rookie running back Breece Hall who has come into his own (92, 88, and 197 total rush and rec yards in the last three weeks).

PFF has the Pack 7th on offense and 24th on D, while the Jets are seventh on defense and last on offense (QB Zach Wilson, however, has only played the last two weeks this season.)

Jets vs Packers Prediction

The Jets thus far have proven to be rather feisty in the early going. However, they’re running into a Packers team that has a bee in their bonnet after the second-half collapse last weekend.

New York’s three victories have been against Jacoby Brissett (CLE), Mitch Trubisky/Kenny Pickett (PIT), and Teddy Bridgewater/Skylar Thompson (MIA) and when they faced established starters in Lamar Jackson (BAL) and Joe Burrow (CIN), they lost by 15 points each time.

In the regular season under Matt LaFleur, the Packers are 9-0 SU and ATS following a loss with 8 of the wins coming by double-digits.

Aaron Rodgers has 24 TDs and 0 INTs in these games.

Good buy-low/sell-high spot vs the Jets at -7 on Sunday?

Look for this to be a ‘get right’ game for Green Bay as they get back into the win column but the Jets can hang with them and put some points on the board as they rely on Breece Hall’s legs to churn up yardage against the fourth-worst rush defense.

The Pick:

• Packers -7 (-120); 1 unit to win 0.83 units
• OVER 45.5 (-108) 1 unit to win 0.93 units

2022 record: 7-6; +0.65 units.
