NFL Week 7 predictions: Picks against the spread for every game

The Jets rant of the week belonged to Joe Benigno on WFAN: “You can change the owner.You can change the coaches.

You can change the GM.You can change the quarterback.

You can change the players.You could change the stadium.

You could change the practice facility.You could change the uniforms.

Or maybe it’s just another sign of the apocalypse. Anyway, the Jets have moved on to another new player, trading for Rodgers’ former top target in Green Bay, Davante Adams.He’s 32 and has had some injury concerns this season.

With him and Garrett Wilson, Breece Hall and Br...
