Predicting Packers’ next four games from Weeks 3 to 6

Week 6: vs. New York Jets

The Packers opted not to take their bye week following the London game. There is some risk to that, but the good news is they get to play the New York Jets in Week 6.

The Jets should be winless after two games. Somehow, they came from 13 points down in the final two minutes to defeat the Cleveland Browns last week, a miracle victory.

New York could enter Week 6 with a 1-4 record. Before visiting Lambeau Field, the Jets play the Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Miami Dolphins.

These are two teams in very different situations. The Packers are in win-now mode, aiming to win a Super Bowl before Aaron Rodgers retires. The Jets are rebuilding under Robert Saleh. The first overall pick is more likely to be in their near future than a playoff berth.

Still, the Jets have talent on both sides of the ball. Rookie wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught two touchdowns last week. The Packers will need a plan to stop him.

If the Packers play to their best, they should win this game. If they lack energy after playing in London, it could be a problem.

Aaron Rodgers is 3-0 against the Jets. His perfect record continues.

Prediction: Green Bay 31, New York 13 (4-2)
