The New York Jets stunned the Green Bay faithful on Sunday, traveling to Lambeau Field to trounce the Packers 27-10.

Once again, it was the Jets' young stars that shined the brightest for New York, with rookie running back Breece Hall going off for 116 yards on the ground and a score and cornerback Sauce Gardner helping to hold Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers to just 210 passing yards.

When Hall broke free for a touchdown run, he found some Jets fans sitting near the end zone and got to do his very own Lambeau Leap.

Hall's leap into the crowd felt like a bit of the statement from the young upstarts, and it wasn't the last one the Jets would deliver on the day.

After the win, Sauce Gardner took a victory lap around the stadium, donning one of Green Bay's classic cheese heads to get in the mood.

Eventually a Packers player made it to Gardner and knocked the cheese head off.

"It kind of felt like we were playing a home game," Gardner told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero after the game, complimenting the Jets fans that traveled.

The Jets have now won three straight games and sit just a game behind the Buffalo Bills in the race for the AFC East.
