Patriots at Packers Odds, Prediction For Week 4

Patriots at Packers Preview

Two teams going in very different directions here, with the Packers having won two straight, and the Patriots sitting at 1-2 and likely missing quarterback Mac Jones for multiple weeks with a high-ankle sprain.

New England Patriots

As of now, Jones' status is pretty much that he'll "miss multiple weeks" with a severe ankle injury. After that, there's no real timetable set.

We at least know we can factor that into this game, with Brian Hoyer getting the start for the Pats, having completed just four of 11 passes against the Packers over his career.

New England is also 0-4-1 ATS in its last five games.

Green Bay Packers

Green Bay is 9-1 straight up in its last 10 home games, and will likely be going up against Hoyer, who owns a career record of 16-23 as a starter while having not led his team to a win since 2016. That gives a major advantage to Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, who are settling into their run-heavy offense as well.

Patriots at Packers Prediction: Under 40.5

This is a low total for a reason, with the Packers ranking ninth in rushing yards per game, and 27th in points per game (16.0), while the Pats' come in at almost the same number (16.7).

The Packers are also sixth in passing yards allowed (302.7), which can make for a tough night for Hoyer. Expect the Pack to take an early lead and eat clock with their run game as much as possible.
