Jets have Aaron Rodgers cadence dilemma as issues add to brutal day of penalties

Aaron Rodgers’ renowned cadence may have thrown the Jets off.
Gang Green committed four offensive pre-snap penalties in Sunday’s ugly 10-9 loss to the Broncos and coach Robert Saleh said it is something they have to take a look at.
“We’ve got to figure it out, whether or not we’re good enough or ready to handle all the cadence,” Saleh said after the offense failed to score a touchdown for the first time this year. “Cadence had not been an issue all [training] camp. Felt like our operation had been operating pretty good. Obviously, today it took a major step back.”
Rodgers didn’t hide his feelings on the idea of dialing back his cadence.
“I guess that’s just a new thing with the NFL. Usually, they give warnings with unsportsmanlike conducts and stuff like that,” Lazard said. “Guys around the league do that every single week. It’s been a thing for a while now. They never made it a point of emphasis in the offseason or anything. They kind of just threw it out there. Obviously, I regret doing that. I guess you can’t signal first down anymore.”
Over the season’s first three weeks, the Jets had averaged six accepted penalties for 62 yards.
It was a major problem in this surprising loss.
“I know Allen had one on the celebration, but just a lot of pre-snap penalties, which is unacceptable,” Saleh said. “That’s the stuff that we have to get cleaned up. You’re always going to have in-play penalties, those are going to happen, but the pre-snap and post-snap penalties, those are the ones that are unacceptable.”
