The New York Jets are poised for their second consecutive win as they face the Green Bay Packers, who struggle with injuries and inexperienced running backs after losing their first game. The article highlights Breece Hall's crucial role in the Jets' success; he rushed for 102 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries against Tennessee, demonstrating his ability to carry the offense. While the Packers have relied on rookie runners due to Josh Jacobs’ absence, the Jets are optimistic about D’Angelo Ponds potentially making his NFL debut as they prepare for Sunday's game at MetLife Stadium.

Story summary
In Week 1 of the NFL season, the Green Bay Packers struggled without their star running back Josh Jacobs, who is currently suspended by the league due to an offseason arrest and plea of no contest to two misdemeanor charges. The Packers relied on inexperienced backups MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks in a loss against the Minnesota Vikings, producing only 66 rushing yards, which was the third-fewest for any team that week. Meanwhile, the New York Jets won their game with Breece Hall leading them in rushing, carrying the ball 22 times for 102 yards and a touchdown, contributing to their victory over the Tennessee Titans. The Jets' strong performance in Week 1 highlighted the importance of having an established running back like Breece Hall, while the Packers' issues underscored the impact of losing key players due to suspensions or other reasons.
