Jets’ Aaron Rodgers calls loss performance ‘a little ridiculous’

Aaron Rodgers was unhappy with the lead in the New York Jets’ loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday night, even on a play that favored him and his team.

Bills defensive lineman AJ Epensa was penalized for harassing the passer on what appeared to be a routine sack by Rodgers. The veteran quarterback shook his head after the game. It was one of 11 Bills penalties on the night. The Jets also committed 11 errors.

While fans were angry at the officials, Rodgers used his platform to talk about it.

“It seemed a little ridiculous. Some of it seemed really bad, including the passer-rushing on me. That’s not roughing the passer. We might as well be playing ‘sarcastaball’ if we’re going to call that kind of thing,” said Rodgers. a reference to “South Park.”

“I also thought (Javon) Kinlaw’s didn’t bother the passerby.”
