Didn't a jet go off the runway in Rochester NY just yesterday??
Sure did. Slipped off the runway due to snow and ice. Thats my home airport. KROC
Also in Africa on that same day, more serious than slipping off a runway into the mud: a Jetways Airlines Fokker 50 turboprop freighter hit a house in Somalia, apparently while attempting a go-around from a landing approach, with at least one fatality.

...and they didn't blame either on Boeing??? (Sarcasm intended)
In Africa, it was one ERMB135 and a -8. In ROC yesterday it was an EMB145LR. Boeing made neither aircraft. If they had, there would be more of a widespread story.
Duh...I knew they both were not Boeing! It was SARCASM!
yes,indeed I knew you were being sarcastic. I was agreeing with you, chill.
