The incident highlights the potential for misconduct in football.
Aaron Rodgers connected with Tyler Conklin on a touchdown pass, while Ulbrich’s challenge flag was deemed too late. The incident was bizarre on the sidelines, with Chris Collinsworth and Mike Tirico bewildered by the botched flag throw and enjoying a laugh over the slip-up. Rodgers’s touchdown pass was not significantly consequential, but it was a memorable moment.
Rodgers’ touchdown pass prevented Ulbrich from scoring, causing a humorous mistake from the Jets’ new coach. If the Jets had scored, the perception of the mistake would have been different. Despite this, New York managed to score six points and extend their lead to 15-6, extending their lead over Pittsburgh.
