Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Looks washed in blowout loss
Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of 35 pass attempts for 151 yards and no touchdowns while losing a fumble on one of his three sacks taken in Sunday's 31-6 loss to Arizona.Rodgers looked like a shell of his former MVP self in a contest that the New York Jets absolutely needed to win, failing to throw a TD pass after having 10 over his previous five starts. The 40-year-old had strung together a pair of strong outings in recent weeks, but his arm simply looked gassed once the team fell behind and needed to put up points quickly. Rodgers and the Jets need to re-evaluate their gameplan now that the team has fallen to 3-7. For now, expect the veteran signal-caller to be under center against the Colts next Sunday.

Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Leads much-needed comeback win
Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of 32 passes for 211 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed once for minus-1 yard in the New York Jets' 21-13 win over the Texans on Thursday night.The first half was once again a source of major concern for Rodgers and the Jets' offense, as they were shut out altogether. However, the future Hall of Famer came alive in the second half despite losing Davante Adams for a time due to a concussion check, connecting with Garrett Wilson (21, 26 yards) and Adams (37 yards) for his trio of scoring tosses. The touchdown tally was a season high for Rodgers, who also avoided interceptions for the second straight game and recorded completions to seven different targets overall. With New York's losing streak now snapped, Rodgers will look to string together consecutive wins for the second time as a member of the Jets at the expense of the Cardinals in a Week 10 road matchup on Sunday, Nov. 10.

Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Two TDs not enough in Week 8
Aaron Rodgers completed 17 of 28 passes for 233 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Patriots.Rodgers threw a two-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Conklin in the first quarter and a one-yard touchdown pass to Xavier Gipson in the second, but the New York Jets came up a day late and a dollar short in another last-dash comeback bid. New York's sixth loss ended with a gimpy Rodgers and the offensive line hustling in vain to get a spike off as the final seconds ticked off after a 16-yard completion to Davante Adams on the game's final play. Conklin and Gipson have combined to catch all three of Rodgers' touchdown passes in two games since Adams' arrival in New York. Rodgers and the Jets won't have long to dwell on this latest disappointment, as they'll be right back in action Thursday against the Texans.

Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Falls in reunion with Adams
Aaron Rodgers completed 24 of 39 passes for 276 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the Steelers. He also threw a two-point conversion.Rodgers' best sequence came on a second-quarter drive that gave the New York Jets a 15-6 lead, as he connected with Breece Hall for a 57-yard gain through the air, then threw a one-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Conklin and followed that up with a two-point conversion to Garrett Wilson. His interception on the next possession turned the tide, though, as the Steelers turned that turnover into a touchdown before halftime, which spearheaded a 31-0 Pittsburgh run. Rodgers wasn't quite on the same page with familiar target Davante Adams, who had only 30 yards on nine targets in Adams' Jets debut after being acquired via trade from Vegas on Tuesday. Rodgers has the potential to put up gaudy numbers through the air against weaker defenses with Adams, Wilson and Hall among his targets, but the 2-5 Jets are running out of time to figure things out heading into a Week 8 trip to New England.
