Green Bay is winless on the road in this disappointing campaign, but they catch a break against a punchless NY Jets outfit. The Packers have had a tough road schedule, but this offense has the best quarterback in the league in Aaron Rodgers (23 TDs, 2 INTs). Rodgers is used to playing outdoors in the cold and Green Bay is 68-43 ATS in December games, plus 35-20 ATS on the road after failing to cover the spread in two of their last three contests. The offense is top 10 in the NFL in total yards and passing, while the defense is #15 in yards allowed, and on a 6-2 run UNDER the total. The weather will be cold and the UNDER is 107-58 when any NFL team has lost five or six out of seven games when playing in December. They face a NY Jets squad that has no offense, #30 in yards, #24 in points scored (20.9 pg). The Jets are 68-45 UNDER the total in December games, plus NFL home dogs off two or more consecutive OVERS are 30-60 ATS, so back the better team with the elite QB in a defensive battle. Play Green Bay and the UNDER.
