Aaron Rodgers and the Jets fell to 2-3, while the Vikings moved to 5-0 after a close game in London on Sunday. Here are three takeaways.
In a matchup of two teams heading in opposite directions, the Minnesota Vikings improved to 5-0 with a 23-17 victory over the 2-3Minnesota jumped out to a 17-0 lead in the first half before a late New York touchdown cut the lead to 10 at the break. The Jets' defense stepped up in the second half, and the offense had a chance on the final drive to win it before Aaron Rodgers threw his third interception of the day.
Two other notable things have gone wrong, starting with the coaching. Rodgers has never seemed to jive with Robert Saleh, as evidenced by their awkward post-touchdown interaction a few weeks back. Plus, offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett hasn't set his units up for success in any of his recent stops. He worked with Rodgers in Green Bay, but head coach Matt LaFleur was the architect of that offense. Hackett and Saleh seem overmatched right now.
Head coach Kevin O'Connell and defensive coordinator Brian Flores are pitching a perfect game in 2024. Flores' unit totaled three sacks, three interceptions , 11 QB hits and nine passes defended. Undrafted second-year linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. is emerging as a legitimate star, and veterans Stephon Gilmore and Harrison Smith are holding it down in the secondary.O'Connell's group had its first real signs of struggle in Week 5. Sam Darnold went just 14 of 31 for 179 yards and an interception, and the team averaged just 2.7 yards per carry.
