Surprise NFL MVP candidate Sam Darnold leads the undefeated Minnesota Vikings in London to face the New York Jets and Aaron Rodgers in their second international game of the year. Minnesota is a passer signal caller who has led the NFL in touchdown passes this season and was a bit of a surprise in passer rating heading into Week 4. That’s certainly unexpected from the 2018 first-round draft pick who was snubbed by the Jets. After the 2020 season and early career struggles.
When Aaron Rodgers arrived in the Big Apple before last season, the Jets expected some stability at quarterback, at least for the next two years, but an Achilles tear kept him out of all but four plays in 2023, and one neutral start this season — a touchdown for the 2-2 Jets. Rodgers is in the middle of the pack in touchdowns, yards and passer rating — which may be cause for some initial concern. It could return with a win over Minnesota to get the Gang Green over .500 in the NFL’s first three weeks in London.
