The best throws by a Jets quarterback on Monday night came about two hours before the game started when a recovering Aaron Rodgers was launching 50-yard passes during warm-ups.
Unfortunately for the Jets, Rodgers then donned a headset and Zach Wilson played the game at MetLife Stadium.
Wilson had a miserable night and the Jets did not score a touchdown in a 27-6 loss to the Chargers that drops them to 4-4 this season and raises doubts about whether this team can really make a playoff run.
The only encouraging sign offensively was Rodgers launching those passes in warm-ups and walking to the locker room rather than taking a cart.
The Jets have to be wondering if Rodgers on one leg would be better than Wilson right now.
Wilson went 33-for-49 for 263 yards, most of those coming in garbage time.
Wilson was sacked eight times in the game, fumbling twice on sacks.
The Jets have not scored a touchdown in their last seven quarters and an overtime period.
They have a dismal eight offensive touchdowns in eight games and four of those touchdowns came on one-play explosive drives.
