Packers face Jets to avoid historic losing streak in NFL
Summary

The Green Bay Packers are set to face the New York Jets in their Week 2 matchup on Sunday. Currently, the Packers are 0-1 following a loss to the Minnesota Vikings and are looking to prevent a seventh straight loss, which would match their longest losing streak since the 1990-91 seasons. The last time the Packers started a season 0-2 was in 2006, making them the only NFL team to avoid such a start since 2007. A loss would intensify pressure for their upcoming home opener against the Atlanta Falcons next Thursday night.
