Commentary: With Aaron Rodgers returning, the Jets are hoping for a resurgence despite his age and recovery from a torn Achilles. Rodgers, now 41, has a solid roster of offensive weapons, including new additions like Mike Williams and Tyrod Taylor for depth. The offensive line, bolstered by Tyron Smith and Morgan Moses, should provide better protection. On defense, the Jets remain elite, with a top-ranked unit last year and new edge rusher Hasson Reddick adding further depth. It is crucial for the Jets to leverage their defensive strength and get the offense back on track. If Rodgers is even a shell of his former self, the ceiling is high for this Jets team.

Fading them in the 1H when they were underdogs was a strong angle, as they went 2-12 1H ATS in this spot.
