hero

Former Jets draft pick and Giants star Leonard Williams had two sacks, a blocked PAT and a pick-six for a game-winning touchdown in his return to MetLife Stadium.

Zero

Aaron Rodgers’ nightmare continued as he completed 53.8 percent of his passes for two touchdowns and returned an interception for a touchdown right after missing a big play. He had the ball in his hands and had a chance to win the game on the Jets’ final drive and failed for the fifth time this season.

Quote

“I think he’s an older guy and doesn’t want to take big hits like that anymore. So when you feel like the guy is coming at him at full speed, he throws off and ducks.”
