The Jets blocked a punt for a touchdown with 5:43 left in the third quarter after coming up with a block on the sideline in the 27-10 Jets win at Lambeau Field.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat was a specific thing that we saw today, during the game.  That was an adjustment,\u201d said Will Parks, who scored the touchdown.  \u201cI came up to [special teams coordinator Brant Boyer] and I said something and he dialed up that play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rookie Michael Clemons broke through the line and blocked the Pat O&#8217;Donnell punt.  Parks scooped it up at the 20 and raced into the end zone.  The score gave the Jets a 17-3 lead and gave them control of the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat play was so big,\u201d Jets coach Robert Saleh said.  \u201cIt turned it into a two-score game and just allowed us to let loose up front.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was the first blocked punt the Jets have returned for a touchdown since 2019 when they did it against the Ravens.  The Jets also blocked a field goal Sunday.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption>Jets safety Will Parks recovers a blocked punt during the Jets&#8217; win over the Packers.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>Jets QB Zach Wilson grew up idolizing Packers QB Aaron Rodgers.  The two shared a moment after the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s crazy for me, right, because this guy&#8217;s been my idol since I was 8 years old and started watching football,\u201d Wilson said.  \u201cHe was the quarterback I copied everything, tried to be just like him.  As ugly of a game as that was, I think he&#8217;s a great guy.  He&#8217;s someone I&#8217;ve studied, even through the NFL, someone I try to be like.  Sharing that moment after the game was really cool, just telling him, &#8216;good job.&#8217;  I&#8217;d love to sit there and chat with him all day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson did not have a prolific day.  He only threw for 110 yards on 10 of 18 passing.  The Jets leaned on defense and the running game to win.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"696\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/1433921502.jpg?resize=1024%2C696&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Zach Wilson, left, and Aaron Rodgers embrace after the game. \" class=\"wp-image-24281538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/1433921502.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/1433921502.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/1433921502.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/1433921502.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><figcaption>Zach Wilson, left, and Aaron Rodgers embrace after the game. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;ve got to be able to throw the ball better,\u201d Wilson said.  \u201cIt&#8217;s going to be tough sometimes.

Saleh said an assistant coach got in the way of an official on the sideline and that drew the penalty.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>CB Sauce Gardner had two passes defensed.  He has had one in each of his first six games, joining Desmond Trufant as the only players since 2000 with a pass defensed in each of their first six career games.  Trufant did it in 2013.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>The Jets had no turnovers.  This is the first time they went consecutive games without a turnover since Weeks 15 and 16 of the 2020 season.<\/p>\n<h2>hero<\/h2>\n<p>Jets defensive lineman Quinnen Williams played perhaps the best game of his career.  He could not be stopped, finishing with two sacks, a forced fumble, three quarterbacks hits, two tackles for losses and a blocked field goal.
