Aaron Rodgers is back and healthy after suffering a season-ending Achilles injury in the New York Jets season opener in 2023. With an all-time great quarterback like Rodgers and a roster full of talent, a lot of people expected the Jets to make some noise this season.
Aaron Rodgers Has Harsh Response to Robert Saleh
But the Jets have once again come out of the gates slowly to start the season. After losing to the 1-2 Denver Broncos on Sunday, Rodgers and company are just 2-2 on the season. The Jets' offense struggled in the loss scoring just nine points and never reaching the endzone.
During the post-game press conference, Jets head coach Robert Saleh suggested that the Jets' struggles on the offensive side of the field were just a matter of switching up their cadences. But Rodgers had a harsh response to that suggestion.
"That's one way to do it. The other way is to hold them accountable," Rodgers suggested.

Things Getting Heated Between Jets QB & Coach?
This isn't the first time that Saleh and the Jets quarterback have had a public disagreement this season. In their previous game against the New England Patriots, Saleh tried to celebrate a touchdown with Rodgers but the Jets quarterback promptly shoved Saleh off of him.
With things appearing to crumble early for the Jets fans had mixed reactions to Saleh's comments.
"It's time for regime change for the Jets. Goodbye to Rodgers, Hackett, and Saleh. Next year we'll start again, as we always do......can't see this team doing much," one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"He's known for his cadence and drawing defense offsides. Hold the players accountable and trust your quarterback. What are we doing here?" another fan added.
"Rodgers is not used to having a f*****g moron as his head coach, adjustment/missed playoffs incoming," another fan said.
