Aaron Rodgers had a rough first half in London on Sunday, but the Jets quarterback had the ball in his hands with a chance to beat the Vikings in the final minute.

However, there would be no happy ending for Rodgers and the Jets. Rodgers’ throw to wide receiver Mike Williams with 44 seconds to play was picked off by Vikings cornerback Stephon Gilmore and the Vikings held on for a 23–17 victory.

Rodgers also missed wide receiver Garrett Wilson on a deep shot down the sideline a few plays earlier. He was under pressure and overthrew the wideout, which will go down as a big missed opportunity on a day that started poorly for the Jets.

The Vikings opened the game with a field goal and then extended their lead to 10–0 when Andrew Van Ginkel returned a Rodgers interception for a touchdown in the first quarter. A slew of penalties set up another Vikings touchdown, but the Jets were able to score before halftime and then closed within 20-17 on a touchdown catch by Wilson with just over six minutes to play.

Sam Darnold hit Justin Jefferson to set up a field goal that cut the Vikings’ lead to six points, but the Jets were able to drive to the Vikings’ 26-yard line before the ill-fated pass to Williams. It was the third interception of the day for Rodgers, who also was sacked three times and hit 11 times during the afternoon. He appeared to hurt his knee on one of those hits, but didn’t miss a beat.

Darnold had a tough day against the team that drafted him and might have seen a few ghosts as he went 14 of 31 for 179 yards and an interception. He found Jefferson six times for 92 yards, including that key late completion that forced the Jets to score a touchdown on their final possession.

The Vikings are now 5-0 and they have a bye week to rest before continuing their fight for the NFC North crown. The Jets, who fell to 2-3, will get an extra day of rest before hosting the Bills on Monday night in week six.
