The Jets vs Broncos game came down to the wire in Week 5, and we definitely didn’t see the results coming. With Denver squeaking out the win, the NFL world was in complete shock. The heartbreaking 10-9 loss has made the fans cry. No, we swear we’re not sobbing, but seriously, who’s cutting onions? Well, not only us, but it feels like the NFL MVP is also in tears. While A-Rod’s 5 sacks surely played a huge role in the Jets’ loss, fans believe that not Rodgers but HC Robert Saleh is to be blamed. Socking isn’t it?
A-Rod told media, “When your defense holds them to 10, you’ve got to win the game 100% of the time. So that’s on the offense. That’s on me. Not good enough.” While Rodgers admits he did not play a spectacular game, it has a lot more to do with something else!
Penalties, lack of discipline, and a failure to capitalize on opportunities became the Jets’ Achilles’ injury. Even Saleh himself confessed that the team’s undisciplined play is on him, mentioning pre-snap penalties as a serious concern. The HC called the number of penalties “unacceptable.” And that’s not all!

When we talk about the penalties, the list is longer than A-Rod’s accomplishments. With 123 penalties in 16 games, the Jets are officially the most undisciplined team in the NFL. On top of that, despite having every chance to win, the Jets’ offense stalled, managing merely nine points and a paltry 3.5 yards per attempt.
But the real concern isn’t just the score – it’s the recurring issues coming back just like that irritating ex. And to make things worse, Aaron Rodgers hasn’t delivered the expected results, making fans raise questions about Saleh’s ability as an HC. Well, this is what the fans said!
While Aaron Rodgers says “That’s on me” fans have a different opinion
In the Jets vs Broncos, Aaron Rodgers wasn’t even playing like he did! So, what went wrong? Well, fans are pointing fingers at someone you might not have thought about! Well, the fans are holding Saleh accountable for his coaching decisions and strategies in the game. It was evident in the game with A-Rod’s struggles during the match.
A fan named Mike Greenberg shared his disappointment on X posting, “In a league where the premium on coaching has never been higher, the New York Jets are a very, very badly coached football team. And that will very likely be their undoing.” Well, the fan’s frustration and the Jets’ coaching struggles are as clear as day. With the Jets standing at 2-2, their offense has turned into a ticking time bomb that’s destined to derail their season!

While the Jets aren’t flying so high this season, their performance is falling apart game by game. A fan even expressed how the Broncos’ defense surpassed the Jets’ game and Rodgers couldn’t pass any TDs. Yes, the Super Bowl MVP couldn’t pass a single touchdown! Josina Anderson took to her X account and wrote, “5 sacks on Aaron Rodgers today. Rodgers no passing touchdowns. Today Joseph’s unit put on a clinic. Former Jet John Franklin-Myers has been a huge addition. Ja’Quan McMillian is a beast. Pat Surtain did his duty.” While the Jets failed, who is to be blamed?
As the season continues, pressure mounts on Robert Saleh and Aaron Rodgers. While their position hangs in the balance, will they be able to improve their offense? Can they turn things around, or will the Jets’ struggles ultimately seal their fate? Let’s see!
