Aaron Rodgers-led Jets unravel in undisciplined and turnover-filled 40-14 loss to the Bills

Associated Press  

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Aaron Rodgers hoped to become the NFL’s fifth quarterback to throw 500 touchdown passes. Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said that “barring injury,” Rodgers will start next week’s season finale at home against the Miami Dolphins. “I’m going to enjoy next week and then take some mental and physical rest,” Rodgers said Sunday. Rodgers’ first interception came early in the second quarter when Buffalo’s Greg Rousseau beat backup left tackle Carter Warren to tip a screen pass intended for Davante Adams and caught by Bills lineman Jordan Phillips. “I don’t think I hit or pushed him very hard,” said Rodgers, who had never been flagged for unnecessary roughness before, but did receive a 15-yard facemask penalty during a 2017 playoff game while playing for the Green Bay Packers.
