The Packers vs. Jets spread was mostly sitting around New York -6 across the board, however, as of Wednesday night, SBG Global had a carrot on the stick with the Jets at -5.  The spread action was even on this game as was the money line, which would pay out $20 on every $10 bet for Green Bay should they win outright.

The Jets enjoyed their bye last week and come into this one with a 5-1 record, though their win against Denver was hardly pretty.

New York won 24-20 to a team that got destroyed by Oakland last week. LaDainian Tomlinson scored his second touchdown from 2 yards out with 73 seconds left after a 46-yard pass interference flag on fourth down and the New York Jets rallied past Denver.

The Green Bay Packers enter this game a disappointing 4-3 considering they were widely touted as likely Super Bowl contenders coming into the season.  They did, however, manage to beat Minnesota last week by a score of 28-24. 

Below we will analyze the important betting trends coming into this game.
