GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Jets left Lambeau Field Saturday night winners in a number of ways.

Zach Wilson showed he’s "light years ahead" of a normal rookie quarterback’s process, the defense was continually tested and persevered and the players learned a lot during a pair of joint practices with the Packers earlier in the week. It was a valuable week for the Jets despite having to fly home resembling a MASH unit.
