The Green Bay Packers will be disappointed with their loss to the Giants last week, as they blew a large lead and were upset as 9-point favorites in London. They were on a three-game winning streak heading into that contest and have a chance to bounce back against the New York Jets on Sunday afternoon. New York has won three of its last four games, including a 40-17 win over Miami last week.
Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. Green Bay is favored by 7.5 points in the latest Packers vs. Jets odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while the over/under is set at 45.5. Before entering any Jets vs. Packers picks, you’ll want to see the NFL predictions from the model at SportsLine.
The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up almost $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 6 of the 2022 NFL season on an incredible 146-106 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
Now, the model has set its sights on Packers vs. Jets. You can head to SportsLine to see its picks. Here are several NFL betting lines for Jets vs. Packers:
This is not a good scheduling spot for Green Bay, which is having to deal with an emotional and physical hangover after its trip to London. The Packers blew a 20-10 lead when their offense went cold during the second half, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers is dealing with a thumb injury. They are facing a motivated New York team that has been one of the biggest surprises in the NFL so far, winning three of its last four games.
The Jets have already gone on the road and picked up wins over Cleveland and Pittsburgh, so they will be confident heading into this matchup. They exploded for 40 points against Miami last week, rushing for five touchdowns in the blowout win. New York has covered the spread in six of its last nine games, while Green Bay has only covered twice in its last seven games.
Green Bay should be entering this contest on a four-game winning streak, which would have made the line steeper than it is. The Packers had beaten the Bears, Buccaneers and Patriots in consecutive weeks before blowing their double-digit lead against New York last week. Rodgers is getting more help from his running backs than usual, with Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon combining for more than 600 yards.
Jones is averaging 6.4 yards per carry on 61 attempts, and he is facing a New York defense that has allowed more than 100 rushing yards in three games this season. The Jets have faced a pair of below-average teams in their two road games, so this will be a major step up in class. Green Bay is 16-3 in its last 19 games at Lambeau Field and should be motivated to get back on track this week.
The model has simulated Jets vs. Packers 10,000 times and the results are in. The model is leaning Over, and it’s also generated a point-spread pick that is hitting in well over 50% of simulations. You can only see the pick at SportsLine.
