On a night when the New York Jets’ supposed quarterback savior, Aaron Rodgers, made an appearance at MetLife Stadium, the Los Angeles Chargers’ consistently defense pressured and harassed his successor, Zach Wilson.
The result?
Led by Joey Bosa’s 2.5 sacks and two each by Khalil Mack and Tuli Tuipulotu, the Chargers took down the Jets, 27-6, on Monday Night Football.
Twitter users responded to Jets losing three fumbles, resulting in 14 points, and converting on just 3 of 17 third-down attempts.
