NFL Twitter roasts Aaron Rodgers after second INT vs. Eagles
NFL Twitter went to town on Aaron Rodgers after he threw his second interception against the Eagles to an undrafted free agent.
The first half of Sunday Night Football between the Packers and Eagles was an enthralling affair.
Philadelphia jumped out to a 13-0 lead before Aaron Rodgers and company hit back to grab a 14-13 advantage in the first quarter.
However, things went briefly off the rails for the Packers after Miles Sanders put the Eagles back in front 20-14. On two consecutive drives, Rodgers tossed interceptions to take his season total up to levels we haven’t seen from him in decades.
The second interception at the hands of safety Reed Blankenship, an undrafted rookie, was particularly demoralizing and NFL Twitter let him have it.

Ahh, there's the Aaron Rodgers "I'm going to throw my teammates under the bus with some gestures that make it clear that play wasn't my fault at all" thing that we get to see a dozen (more?) times a week on TV.

Packers’ QB Aaron Rodgers now has 9 interceptions this season.

It's his most in a season since 2010.
Reed Blankenship is the @Eagles' first undrafted rookie to record an interception since Roderick Hood on 10/5/03 vs. Washington.

Blankenship is also the first ever undrafted rookie to pick off Aaron Rodgers.#FlyEaglesFly

Rodgers is still capable of producing special plays of course. It wasn’t long after the interception that he hit Aaron Jones for an impressive touchdown.

Nonetheless, Philadelphia went into halftime with a lead. Jalen Hurts hit Quez Watkins for a 30-yard touchdown with 13 seconds before the break.
The Packers have lost six of their last seven games. Pulling off an upset over the Eagles would go a long way to proving that all is not lost for the team.
In order to do that, Green Bay will need the best out of their quarterback. In the first half, they got the best and the worst.
Rodgers had 118 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in the opening two quarters.
Hurts had 128 yards through the air and 126 yards on the ground.
