The Denver Broncos beat the New York Jets 10–9 in Week 4, as kicker Greg Zuerlein missed a 50-yard field goal with less than a minute to go to seal the victory for the visiting team.
Bo Nix completed seven passes for negative-seven yards in the first half but still managed to throw one more touchdown pass than Aaron Rodgers. The Jets were penalized 13 times and managed just three field goals on offense while they let Rodgers take five sacks.
Despite all that, Jets coach Robert Saleh was in a celebratory mood after Broncos kicker Wil Lutz missed a field goal that would have made it a four-point game with 1:27 remaining in the fourth quarter. Obviously, he did not learn a lesson from the time that Rodgers and Saleh's vibes were not aligned after a successful moment early in the season.

Rodgers's reaction to the original missed kick was much more subdued. Probably because he was preparing himself or the possibility that the Jets might also miss a kick.
