The Packers found themselves in an 18-point hole in the first half, but dug themselves out thanks to three touchdown passes from Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers hit Jordy Nelson for an 80-yard score to put the Packers on top for good. The Jets completed a fourth-down pass for a touchdown that would have tied the game at 31, but the referees decided the Jets had called a timeout before the snap. Jets head coach Rex Ryan could be seen on video standing on the sideline, and did not appear to call for a play stoppage. The replay appeared to show a coordinator for New York gesturing instead.
The Packers move to 1-1 on the season, and travel to Detroit next week.
