The OL was supposed to be a strength for Green Bay.īut it was a team effort because the Jets were playing mostly man. But still, this cannot happen for the Packers. And I get that the Jets’ front four is good and deep and Quinnen Williams might be the best player on the field, sacking Aaron Rodgers with his own guard for cryin’ out loud. Salfino: Well, the Jets were dominating the Packers offensive line with their defensive line. Joshua.hermsmeyer: I’m just over here sipping psychoactive tea. We’ll also get to the yearly “Tom Brady is washed” convo in a bit. Neil: It’s time for our yearly “Rodgers is washed” convo.

We’re going to talk about the other upsets from Sunday’s action, but let’s start with the Jets and Giants. ![]() ![]() Our forecast has the Giants more likely than not to make the playoffs, and while the Jets still have fairly low odds at just 37 percent, I have a feeling there are some folks here today who might take issue with that.

Maya ( Maya Sweedler, copy editor): I have a confession: I’ve been checking every spinning top I’ve come across these last few weeks, just to make sure we’re not in some sort of “Inception” situation, because guys: All of New York’s football teams might be … good?Ĭoming into the season, FiveThirtyEight’s model had the Buffalo Bills as our Super Bowl favorites, but neither of their downstate neighbors had higher than a 28 percent chance of making the playoffs.
