This section updates as soon as the Out, Doubtful and Questionable tags land.
The matchup that settles it: possession football against a quarterback in form
Jordan Love’s 387 yards were the most any quarterback managed in the opening week, and he still lost. Christian Watson took 147 of them.
The Jets’ answer is to keep him off the field. Thirty-nine carries and nearly 39 minutes of the ball is a plan, and Green Bay conceded 107 rushing yards last week.
Twelve penalties for 98 yards is the Packers’ real problem. Repeat that at MetLife and the records stop being misleading.
