It was a struggle for the Jets to find offense in the first half. But that all ended thanks to Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers connected with Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard for a 52-yard touchdown.

After the Jets cut the game to one possession fans went wild with reactions on social media.
"There will never be another QB that throws the ball as good and pretty as Aaron Rodgers," one user said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"Aaron Rodgers is the king of the Hail Mary. and Allen Lazard is still WR1," another user added.
Josh Allen Shoulders Blame For Bills Struggles
After the first three weeks of the season, the Bills appeared to be a Super Bowl contender and many were ready to crown their starting quarterback Josh Allen the MVP. But their first three games were against lesser competition in the Arizona Cardinals, Miami Dolphins, and Jacksonville Jaguars. But after going up against stiffer competition in the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans, the Bills have appeared to come back to earth.
Even though the team has struggled as a unit during their recent stretch, Bills quarterback Josh Allen was willing to shoulder the blame.
"Well, I've got to be better," Allen said. "Just making sure we're on the same page, and it starts with the quarterback. That's on me.
However, Bills wide receiver Dawson Knox was quick to disagree with Allen's notion.
"He's got the weight of the whole city on his back, and he takes the losses very harshly. But it's on all of us," Knox said.
"There's plays I wish I had back blocking-wise. There are routes I could have done better. I guarantee you, everybody on this team would say there's stuff they regret. That's what makes him such a great leader. He does take responsibility for the loss. But it's definitely not just on him."
