Week 6’s game between the New York Jets and Green Bay Packers wasn’t supposed to be gridiron art. Few could have expected just how ugly it would get for Aaron Rodgers and his team.
The Packers fell to 3-3 by virtue of a 27-10 frogstomping in an mostly-regrettable display of football at Lambeau Field. Suddenly, in the middle of a ramshackle and winnable NFC, Green Bay appears ready to cede its playoff invitation. The Packers had a clear path to 5-1 after beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4 and staring down back-to-back games against New York franchises with one playoff appearance between them since 2012. Instead of fulfilling the “Ws” fans had penciled in back in August, Rodgers’ team fell flat on its face.
