Aaron Rodgers and Garrett Wilson connected four times as the Jets picked up five first downs on a 70-yard scoring drive in the first quarter, but the Jets haven’t picked up any other first downs thus far. They picked up 13 yards outside of the scoring drive and running back Breece Hall lost a fumble to set up the first 49ers field goal, so the offense hasn’t had much consistency..
