    While the " Monday Night Football " showdown between the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets was thrilling, it was marred by undisciplined play and a significant number of penalties that dampened the atmosphere at MetLife Stadium.

    Nonetheless, the Bills emerged victorious with a 23-20 win after Aaron Johnson intercepted Aaron Rodgers with just under two minutes remaining. Josh Allen then sealed the game with a keeper for a first down on 3rd and 5. With this win, Buffalo sits atop the AFC East with a 4-2 record, while the Jets drop to 2-4, suffering their third consecutive loss.

    Overall, the quarterback play was solid, and the long-time friends Josh Allen and Aaron Rodgers shared a heartfelt interaction postgame, highlighting their mutual respect after a hard-fought battle on the field.

    The clip of the postgame interaction between Josh Allen and Aaron Rodgers quickly gained traction, surpassing over 1,000 likes and views within just ten minutes of being posted by ESPN .

    Both quarterbacks performed well enough to secure a win, but missed field goals, undisciplined penalties, and late-game mistakes ultimately dictated the outcome. The Bills executed at a higher level and emerged victorious.

    Allen finished the game completing 19 of 25 passes for 215 yards, with two passing touchdowns and nine rushes for 18 yards and another touchdown.

    Meanwhile, Rodgers completed 23 of 35 passes for 294 yards, also throwing two touchdowns but recording one interception. He was sacked three times, and there were over 200 combined penalty yards between both teams.
