From the moment they acquired him in a trade with the Green Bay Packers in April of 2023, the Jets were hoping Aaron Rodgers would bring them out of the decade-plus abyss into championship glory. An Achilles tear in the 2023 season opener put a hold on Rodgers potentially making the Jets contenders.

Aaron Rodgers was sacked five times as the Jets offense managed only 248 yards on the day— somehow much better than the Broncos, who put up merely 186 total yards. Despite that differential New York couldn't put points on the board and Greg Zuerlein missed a 50-yard field goal in the final minute to seal his team's defeat.

Aaron Rodgers responded to an assessment that Robert Saleh had on the team’s offense during his post-game press conference. The coach suggested that, perhaps, the way the offense operates has to be changed.
