Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets entered this season with extremely high expectations. The 40-year-old QB was healthy, the defense was solid and the coaching staff was ready to push the right buttons to make a deep postseason run.

Those lofty dreams have now all but shattered as the Jets have become one of the league’s biggest disappointments. Their latest disaster came Sunday in Arizona, where they lost 31-6 to Kyler Murray and the Cardinals in a game that never felt closer than that lopsided score.

Rodgers threw for just 151 yards in the loss, dropping the Jets to 3-7 on the season. One nightmare of a game in the second half seemed to sum up this Jets team pretty well. Trailing 24-6, Rodgers and the offense went for it on fourth down from the four-yard line.

How were they doing? Not good. Not good at all.

Seeing Rodgers face down on the field after losing a fumble on a play that never seemed to have a chance is basically the Jets of 2024 in a nutshell.

The Jets have now lost six of their last seven games and it feels like this could be Rodgers’ last season in the NFL.

That’s not how anyone involved with the team saw things happening this year. What a mess.
