Aaron Rodgers Jets Era Must End After Loss to Seahawks

The Aaron Rodgers era in New York needs to come to an end. 

There is no doubt that Rodgers is a first ballot Hall of Famer; one of the most gifted athletes of his generation. He will go down as one of the best to ever do it in the regular season. His arm talent was second to none, except for maybe Dan Marino or Brett Favre in the primes of their careers. 

But with the Jets, it has been an all time disaster.

Sunday's 26-21 Jets loss to the Seattle Seahawks only furthered the evidence that Rodgers marriage with the Jets has to come to an end.  Rodgers was inconsistent, and threw a horrible pick-six that flipped the game totally on its head. 

The Jets had a chance to go up 28-7, but Rodgers threw a pass that ex-Jet defensive lineman Leonard Williams tipped into the air and picked off before rumbling down field for the six-points to make it 21-13 instead. 

It was all Seattle after that. 

The Jets never got close to the end zone again the rest of the afternoon. 

The loss follows two more weeks of turmoil. In the aftermath of Joe Douglas' firing, a report by the Athletic detailed the drama within One Jets Drive, including an apparent rift between Jets owner Woody Johnson and Rodgers, and that there was a good chance both sides would go their separate ways. 

Rodgers denied those claims on the Pat McAfee show on November 26, but Sunday's game coupled with a corroborating story by Ian Rapoport in the wee hours of Sunday morning confirmed that Rodgers time in Green and White is ticking away. 

It's time for a change. It's time to wave good bye to one of the biggest failed era's in Jets history.
