Worst birthday of my life. I was at the game, had two friends thrown out, and then that happened. I thought we had something in Glenn Foley after that day. Oh, and the freaking 49ers fans were so freaking nice. They weren't even condescending, but I was completely demoralized by the whole thing and hated them for being so damn nice.

I think Kurosawa died that day too.

i was at that game. One of three NFL games I've ever been to. It was freaking glorious the despair of the entire stadium as Morton broke through for the TD in OT for what I believe was the shortest OT ever at the time (might still be). He was running right at my endzone, and it was just amazing fun to see.

Same story here.
The whole lead up to the game was a great part of it. We had some of those crazy playoff scenarios along with the 3 way tie possibilty.
The parking lot exploded when NE tied it up.

I remember all the nervous pacing in the parking lot, everyone watching their TVs and fiddling with the antennae.
The stadium went nuts when NE won.

I wasn't there, but it remember the second the building erupted when the Pats won, there was absolutely no chance that we were losing that game. We obliterated the Packers and it was so freaking awesome to watch that game. Was that the year we destroyed Peyton 41-0 the next week? God that season was fun. It was also incredibly obvious to me that winner of the Jets Raiders divisional game was going to the Super Bowl.
-
Was that the year we destroyed Peyton 41-0 the next week?
Yes, those games were six days apart. Green Bay was the 4:00 Sunday game and Indy the 4:30 Saturday playoff game.
-
Those were my first two live Jets games. Needless to say things went downhill from there.

First game I watched in college. I was with a friend who freaked out about the missed XP and wouldn't shut up about how it was going to come back to haunt us.
I mean, he wasn't wrong, since BUF was able to tie it at 16 as a result, but it was still annoying.

That was Pennington's first game back after the second surgery and winning his job back in camp. With a new coaching staff, rookies all over the field and no proven running back, he was huge that year.

I remember the new and improved super-strong Chad overthrowing Justin McCareins.
Can you imagine if some farce of a QB competition resulted in Chad getting injured behind the backup OL in a preseason game and being forced to start Clemens all year? Madness.
-
I was in Vegas for a conference. Woke up early to watch the game, was my last day in Vegas so was broke by that point. Didn't even have enough for a beer at the bar. Literally broke. Remember chad having a great game but the stupid defense kept letting the titans back in the game. At one point this other jets fan and I are screaming "what more does chad have to do?!" Like an idiot I also thought it would be a good idea to bring up the fact that we were both flying home on the 5 year anniversary of 911. Dudes response still sticks to me because of how awkward it was. I guess that's why I remember that game so vividly.

Except no one was really crying over Sanchez, yet chad getting hurt would've been a big deal.

Coming off two years with injuries and the team drafted his replacement in the second round.

Chad was no sure thing but he ended that competition early, the Jets had also brought in Patrick Ramsey as another option and Brooks Bollinger had finished the 2005 season.
In Sanchez's case it was a chance to go down the field, win a game and seal the job. It was bad luck that he got hurt, but injuries were never really an issue with him before. With Pennington you held your breath every time he dropped back to pass after a while.

Haha, nothing worse than being in Vegas after you're broke. All that good excrement to see and do and you just have to ride it out.

Also helped that Geno > Clemens

Yes. Clemens got another chance midway through 2007 with a year and a half under his belt and didn't show he was a starting caliber QB. Geno jumped right in and has played better.

When people come to visit I always tell them to budget their money. It can be tough for some people, but you avoid just this situation.
Another tip is the buy your booze at the store and keep it in your room. If things aren't going well you can just BYOB down to the casino floor.

Yeah, that was my first time in Vegas though. I didn't have much to begin with, but won $1,300 in Roulette my first night. Felt like a baller. Bought my two coworkers dinner, then blew the rest chasing the high and paying for an escort. She was at least an 8 and cost me $800. I then dipped into my own money trying to regain the baller status. Ended up borrowing $100 from a coworker, but blew that too. By the Jets game I was dead broke with a whole day to go.
All in all, awesome time.

So the Vinny injury was 15 years ago today. That sucked. I remember that game like it was yesterday. 11-year old me chanting "TU-PA, TU-PA" in the stands as he played well. Then Rick Mirer came in during the 4th when he was allowed to, and he was awful. Then they lost and found out Vinny was done for the year. That sucked. Would have sucked more if I were old enough to understand more of the consequences of the injury and put it into more historical perspective.

You were also at the game where Chad and Fiedler both got injured.
Were you also at Wayne Chrebet's last game?

Yep. Remember that one, too. As soon as he went down, you knew it was over and there was a pall cast over the crowd. The legend of Bollywood nearly began that day though.
I was also at the 41-0 Jets-Colts game and the games that clinched playoff spots in 2001 and 2006, so not every game I go to is immediately awful. Was also at the Jets-Jaguars playoff win in 1998.
Grateful that I got to grow up with season tickets in my family.

I think Tupa hit Keyshawn for a TD on the first play after Vinny's injury.

Yes, I believe that would have tied the game late. According the FOURTHANDLONG that drop prevented Clemens from going on to a Hall of Fame career.

Cotchery made an incredible effort after his catch to not let his knee touch the ground. Great play.

How bout that one when he pulled something, vs the Browns I believe. I always liked what he brought to the field but that put him into another tier for me.

It was the browns. He tore a hamstring, and Sanchez was in trouble, he still moved to the left, and then laid out for a tough pass making a great catch. Pretty sure he couldn't play the next 2 weeks after that.
-
Cotchery is exactly what this team could use. The "in his prime" Cotchery or the "now" Cotchery. He's one of my favorite Jets of my lifetime. His catch at Cleveland in '10 and his catch at New England in '08 (TNF) are two of the best catches I've ever seen.
-
Yeah too bad the Jets wanted Mason and Burress over him and let him leave. One of Tannenbaums stellar decisions.

Cotchery had long TDs in the '06 and '10 playoff games at Foxboro. He was such a clutch player. Your stereotypical consummate professional.
-
Ooh, that '05 opener was a scorcher. That was the hottest game I've ever been at. It had to be damn near 95 degrees at that game.
That '02 Pats home opener was one of THE worst games I've ever been to. Then again, I can say that about like 3 or 4 different Pats games. I'm like 1-6 at Patriots games. The Namath/Kolber game was probably the coldest game I've been to, plus they destroyed us that night. It got ugly in the stands that night.

Didn't he catch a little check down and turn into a 60 yard touchdown? Maybe it was just a long play? I know the '06 touchdown was a perfect slant from Penny. And...then the Wilfork play happened.
-
I think he may have had a long YAC play but he didn't have a touchdown.

Looked it up.
First play of the 4th quarter:
Mark Sanchez pass complete short middle to Jerricho Cotchery for 58 yards (tackle by Brandon Meriweather)
Drive ended in the Holmes TD.
-
I remember a long catch and run going left to right on TV, but it might not have been a TD. Cotchery's departure is an underrated factor in the decline of Sanchez here, in my opinion.

Haha...I just looked it up too, you're 100 percent correct.
Edit: I just re-read the game recap and the quotes for the first time in ages, and it sucked. My favorite game ever, and it feels like it was so long ago but in reality, it really wasn't at all.

Pretty sure that Curtis Martin had one of his best runs ever in that 2004 win, when he just carried some Chargers into the end zone. I used to have that as a Gif on my MySpace page when I was in high school for the 12 minutes I used MySpace.
-
I remember that 1999 game. Mirer's first start. Monday night football. I remember them doing this "feel good" story about Mirer and how he's ready for the challenge etc. I remember because that was the last time I ever paid any attention to those. I falsely believed, based on watching that, that Mirer could pull it off, and that our season would be saved. After that Bills game, it was all over... at least until they started Lucas. What a weird season.

Yeah, they had an image of the World Trade Center on the back of the helmets just for that game. Vinny's dad was involved in building the WTC.
That game dropped the Patriots to 0-2, 5-13 under Belichick before Brady entered.

Unfortunately I can't find any video or even stills from the 1983 fight, but that game was a classic. Here is what I did find:
Sept. 25, 1983 – Jets 27, Rams 24 – OT (New York)
This fiercely contested battle was marred by a third quarter brawl. Hall of Fame tackle Jackie Slater took exception to a post-sack celebration by the Jets’ Mark Gastineau. Once order was restored, New York’s defensive back Jerry Holmes stole the day, literally. Earlier in the game, he had picked up the football on a blocked field goal attempt and rambled 57 yards for the touchdown to tie the game at 14-14. Then, in overtime, he intercepted a Vince Ferragamo pass at his own 20-yard-line and returned it to midfield. Holmes’ interception set up the game-winning field goal, a 22-yarder by Pat Leahy.
The Jets offense was led by QB Richard Todd who completed 37 of 50 passes for 446 yards and 2 TDs. Rams’ Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson gained 192 yards rushing on 28 carries and scored 2 TDs including an 85-yard run to open the day’s scoring.

The Jets had switched to a 3-4 for 1983 with Joe Klecko returning from knee surgery and moving to NT. The first few weeks they were getting destroyed, the week previous New England's Tony Collins ran for 212 yards and 3 TDs, Eric Dickerson ran all over them in this game, as noted above. This was his 4th NFL game. Richard Todd was also caught on camera giving the finger to someone, presumably the fans.

What year did Todd shove Steve Serby into a locker and lock him in there? Was it that particular season?

What year did Todd shove Steve Serby into a locker and lock him in there? Was it that particular season?
That was 1981, midway through the season after the Jets turned it around and started winning. Todd's frustration was that the team was finally winning after a long time of losing and Serby kept writing negative excrement.

We won our first game in 2002 so Vinny couldn't have started 0-4.
He started that game 0-4 passing, thinking back he may have been injured but Pennington was looming throughout the three game losing streak. Official word from Herm was that Vinny was hurt but I never saw him come off the field injured, so it might have been something minor or just a face saving excuse to put Pennington in.
On a related note for this year, we started 1-3 and made the playoffs in 1981, 1991 and 2002, in 1981 we started 0-3.

Ah I misunderstood. I knew we started the season 1-4 so I figured it was just an error.

That Jacksonville game was such a WTF moment. We watched that game at a sports bar/restaurant in Binghamton since it wasn't airing on local TV. We invited a new guy to our usual group. Since we lost 41-0 he was obviously bad luck and we never invited him again.

I was on Hawaii time during that Jacksonville game. Game was basically over by 9 am.

The Jacksonville game I followed on my phone from an airport, eerily similar to this past Sunday where they had it on in the bar. I was leaving the same event as in 2006. I was at the 1978 game with my dad, he was real impressed with Kevin Long and Matt Robinson. Sat with Hobbes at the 2012 game. The Boomer thing was ugly, he was out for weeks, said he remembered nothing.

I heard Parcells once admit that sticking with Mirer in '99 over Ray Lucas as long as he did was one of his biggest coaching mistakes.

That Indy game when he went to Lucas, Lucas got hurt late and Mirer had to start a couple more games, one of which they won something like 7-6 over Arizona.

He basically said he should have started Lucas right from Vinny's injury. They were already 1-4 at that point.

I agree, we said it then. Mirer wasn't even in camp to know the offense, he was signed about ten days before the season. Lucas had been here since Parcells came in 1997.

Mirer was a distater from the minute he was drafted. Still don't know why we even brought him in.

That 1987 game capped a crazy week and time for the Jets. Gastineau had crossed the picket line as soon as the strike started, the other players egged his car and spit at him when he showed up for practice. By that Miami game the strike was settled late in the week but there wasn't time for everyone to get back in for Sunday, so it was a combination of the replacement players and the guys who came back, including Pat Ryan who started at QB.
The game was crazy too, I was there. Miami got up 10-0, it was tied at 17, we got up 31-17, and eventually in OT Ryan hit replacement RB Eddie Hunter for the game winning TD. Joe Walton was so impressed with Kyle Mackey, who played QB for Miami, that the Jets would later sign him and he would start a game for us in 1989.
Here are a couple of articles about Gastineau and the incidents with the other Jets, things got real ugly. The New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/1987/10/04/sports/sports-of-the-times-it-s-time-for-the-jets-to-sack-mark-gastineau.html) had a scathing piece on Gastineau, and People Magazine (http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20097314,00.html) took it from a point of view more sympathetic to him.

I wonder how many people like me thought that the season was down the pipe by the time Penny took over in 2002 - Once Chad found his feet we all thought we had our guy. Turned in to a pretty good season.
-
Even when Chad first got in and was playing well we blew the Cleveland game, and then another one, getting to 2-5 before turning it around. We blew another one later that year in Chicago that we should have won.
On the subject of Gastineau, it was October 20, 1988 when he suddenly retired seven games into the season, leading the team in sacks. I remember it because it was the same day/night the Dodgers won the World Series over Oakland.

That Bears loss was awful. Jets tried a late comeback, then Chrebet made a stupid play to leap over a defender, fumbling the ball while trying to brace himself and try not to die.
2002 season was a lot of fun. A lot like the 2009 season. 2002, you had this new quarterback tearing up the league and giving you hope not just for that season but for the future. 2009, you had this new defense tearing up the league, providing the same hopes. Both years, a TON needed to go right for the Jets to sneak into the playoffs.
The 2-week stretch in 2002, mauling Brett Favre and Peyton Manning in the Meadowlands back-to-back weeks to the tune of 83-17 was just awesome. Sadly, that was the last Jets home playoff game (beating the Colts 41-0 in 2002). Then everything crashed in Oakland.

If you remember the highlight reel see Chad's face when Chrebet dropped that ball!

Think about that--the #1 and #2 TD passers of all time and we stomped them both six days apart.

Haha, I remember it, it's burned in. Like "what are you doing, I had this".
-
The fumble is burned into my brain but I must have blocked out Chad's reaction.

Those last two games were my first ever games at the meadowlands. Needless to say all downhill from there. I can't believe that was our last home playoff game.

FWIW, I still think 9-7 might have a chance at the division, and if the Jets could get there, they'd probably have to go 5-1 in the division. Obviously, that's a major longshot, but you never know... Would kill for a home playoff game.

2 losses now. Will be underdogs at Indy, at Green Bay and at San Diego. Also have to host Peyton Manning and Denver with Denver coming off a Thursday game. Those 4 losses plus a Jets win over the Pats, and that's 7 losses there. They also have to face Detroit, Chicago, Miami and Buffalo at home, all of them they should win, but none are easy.
Obviously a long shot, but seasons like 2002 will always give me a modicum of hope going forward. The 1998 team was 0-2. The 2009 team was 4-6. Some of the Jets best seasons in my lifetime all featured slow starts. Not 1-6 slow obviously, but I prefer to hang on to my 1% lottery ticket as a fan.

Also, last night I stumbled upon video of the beginning of the brawl caused by Gastineau's sack dance against the Rams in 1983. If anyone knows how to get a YouTube video up (or cares), here is the link. It's kind of a cheesy music video but the play and fight starts at 2:43.

Great film. I still love watching the NYSE in action. That blow up with Gastineau was only one highlight of that game - Eric Dickerson galloped off a huge run to start the game. One of Richard Todd's great games.

You will like this one too, then. It's about 22 minutes, the 1981 highlight film with the great John Facenda narrating. That was one of my favorite all time seasons, the first winning and the first playoff season I ever got to see. I went to the Seattle and Baltimore home games with my dad that year, my freshman year in high school. The Dodgers also beat the Yankees in the World Series that fall.

I can't even begin to tell you how much I enjoyed that! That uniform of the early 80's was the one I followed as a young man and I still love watching clips about these great years.
John Facenda had that commanding narration that made these stories so much loved.
Thank you.

I remember the players reacting to Leon's leg snapping like a twig. Somebody even confessed to running to the sidelines to vomit everywhere.
-
Sadly that was Leon's last game with the Jets. The week before we lost Kris Jenkins, arguably at the time our best player on each side of the ball lost for the year in consecutive weeks. Shonn Greene ended up being Rookie of the Week, our second offensive player that season to do it, after Sanchez.
I was at the 1981 and 1998 games. The 1981 game was disappointing, the Jets had gone 3-0-1 after starting 0-3 and just sucked in this one. It was the first time I'd ever heard the expression "we came out flat", certainly not the last. The 1981 highlight film I posted shows the Walker TD that was called back, you don't see the flag, I remember it was a late flag, so I guess it was ok for the film.
Some trivia for baseball fans, that was the 4:00 game. Leaving Shea the scoreboard had the Dodgers up 2-1 on the Yankees bottom of the 8th of World Series Game 5 at Dodger Stadium. My dad and I made the long walk out of the stadium, under those bridges to the car, when we got in the car it was still 2-1 bottom of the 8th. That was when Goose Gossage hit Ron Cey in the head with a fastball and there was a long delay. Cey actually came back in Game 6 a few days later and got the game winning RBI.
The 1998 game was against the Atlanta team that made the Super Bowl, they didn't have QB Chris Miller that day but I'm not sure it mattered the way we crushed them. Had we held on to that 10-0 lead in Denver in the AFC Championship Game that's the team we would have played in Miami.

I remember that 2001 win. Herm was pissed, and that's about the time we got the name Team Shrek.
Was at that 2007 game. Tickets were cheap.

Top 3 worst games I've ever attended.
Bought tickets with Puck and MB, neither could attend because of the storm. Brought my wife instead. Took public transportation to the game and it took 3 hours to get there. Pounded vodka and apple cider at the tailgate.
Turned out the tickets were in the middle of the visitors section. We were both drunk and therefore belligerent. The game quickly becomes a disaster. Got into an argument with every single person within a 5 seat radius. Wife lectured/screamed at someone for using the word "retard".
Dennis Byrd honored during halftime. Explain to my wife who Dennis Byrd is. She starts sobbing uncontrollably because we have a friend who broke his neck and is bound to a wheelchair. Second half starts. Still a disaster. Eventually reach my breaking point and leave. 3 hour trip home with Sandy looming just behind us.

LOL holy freak. Not quite the "Gameday Experience" they portray on the website.

Also, I've been finding YouTube clips and posting them on the according dates from time to time. Turns out this has been a good season to revisit the past because the present isn't so hot and the future is kind of murky.

Baker was forced out of bounds but it went uncalled. I believe they changed the rule after the season.
I am still 100% certain he would have come down in bounds.

That was it, thanks. Guessing from the final score that would have tied it. I remember we headed into our bye after that.

Pass was from Kellen Clemens and we thought we might have someone here. Another false dawn.

I snapped a picture of them loading Hobbes onto the stretcher but it was night time and came out all black. The EMTs and some of the tailgate people, all of whom I'd just met, were kind of pissed. Heard a lot of "Not cool!" but went for it anyway, to no avail.

What a ride that 2010 season was.
That Flutie-Testerverde game we won in '98 was my first ever game. Me and my buddy went and we got there right at game time and saw all the coal and garbage in the parking lot and was like, what the freak did I miss? Next game I was much earlier and the rest is history.
-
Watching that Sanchez to Holmes TD made me shed a tear. That 2010 season holds the best memories I've had as a NYJ fans. When they started losing in 2012 my ex gf told me "but what's going on? The Jets are always good aren't they?" I kinda laughed at that one.
After watching that video I clicked on the related "Sanchez highlights" video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LL8FHwqDTs I know the butt-fumble and the INTs and the fumbles are not in there... But after watching it I still think that if we had provided him with the right weapons he would still be here and we would be fighting for a playoff place now.

I was at that one with Buffalo fans, got to see them win the division at Buffalo later that year. That might have been the game I bought my earring, it was that first year they changed the logo back.

Everything isn't going to be perfect all the time. You get a young QB there's going to be a few years of ups and downs. If this thread does anything it shows us that, even the great QBs have bad games and sometimes seasons. Sanchez showed us enough early that we should have hung in there with him longer. It's not like some better, younger prospect came along and made him expendable, we have a giant hole there now unless Vick does a Vinny and revives his career here in his mid 30s. Not impossible but I'd rather have the 27 or 28 (whatever he is now) year old Sanchez entering his prime than Vick leaving his.

Of course we had no timeouts left so we had to sit there watch the clock run down, hoping they would miss basically an extra point. That was the day I bought my Revis jersey for $50 outside, which is now on the shelf.

Oh cool. I am happy it happened. I can do with out the mongoloids.

At least some good came out of that game.
A little back story to the 1985 62-28 game: Joe Walton was livid with the Bucs after the last game of 1984 when they lets Johnny Hector score on purpose at the end of the game. It was the last game of the season, Tampa Bay was up 41-14 and wanted the ball back so James Wilder could get some yardage record, and the Jets had the ball inside the 5. The Bucs stood still on the snap and Hector walked in, they got the ball back but the Jets did not let Wilder get the record, if I remember right Mark Gastineau might have even thrown him for a loss.
The Bucs came up to the Meadowlands to play the Jets the next season, 1985, coach John McKay had retired after that last 1984 game. Tampa Bay went up 14-0 early and then the Jets scored 42 straight points. Walton eventually put the subs in, Pat Ryan played QB the 4th quarter and the last drive was all running, the Jets went down the field on a long drive. Ended up having the ball over 40 minutes.

Tim freaking Tebow and more importantly Eric freaking smith and his idiocy...
Although if Jim Leonhard had just made that 3rd down tackle eight plays previously...
God damnit freak everything about that Thursday game after playing in NE the days before

Make the Tebow tackle and the Victor Cruz tackle and 2011 could be a whole different season.

We caught kind of a break that year getting Cleveland and Arizona while Chad was out, they were both bad teams at the time. Quincy managed to win two of the three games and the loss was in OT to the Ravens.
I was at the 1999 and 2010 games, the ending of the 2010 game was so awesome. You can see in the clip a lot of people had walked out, we needed a TD, had no timeouts and about :40 left. Third game in a row the offense pulled out a win and now we hear this crap how we can't have an offense with Rex here.
The 1982 game was not only a big win but it was so nice just to have the NFL back. There were no replacement players or anything that year, it was eight weeks of college, high school and the CFL. The owners were prepared by the next time, 1987, and brought in replacement players which broke the union within a few weeks.

That stupid freaking HB pass.

Before the half, right? I thought Ed Reed took that for a 100 yard TD but when I looked up the box score that's not what happened. I was at that game too, Jordan threw that pass right in front of us.

I meant to include it because it's part of our history now, but in context it's barely a footnote to the game. That's why I get annoyed with how big it's been blown up, it's not like we were driving with the game or the playoffs on the line. Far from it.

Why run away from it? May as well embrace it as a blooper in our history.

There you go, Tommy. It's been added in all its graphic detail. From the picture I'm not sure Moore isn't the real culprit. I never played O line but I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to be thrown through the air into your QB.

That was Paul Maguire on NBC. The Jets looked so bad and lost some key players in the game, Klecko, Gastineau and LT Reggie McElroy. Maguire made his comments I think leading up to the following week, and as the Jets kept losing he was getting more attention for his comments and of course he went with it making it a bigger issue.
We lost 5 straight to end the season and the thing kind of snowballed, then we managed to host the AFC Wild Card game and NBC was there, I was at the game. I remember seeing a shot of the Jet fans rocking a trailer or something that he was in, all kind of in fun with him looking out the window. The Jets went with Pat Ryan at QB and won the game over KC which ended the streak and shut Maguire up at least for a week.

I joined TGG after that game because I had reached an age where I was no longer at the bar with all my buddies still drinking and carousing about the game and I needed an outlet to talk Jets. Of course, that was the beginning of the end of that season.

Chad Pennington jukes defender for rushing TD, 2002:

That was a fun freaking game to be at. That was the biggest white-boy juke in the history of white-boy jukes. I think I was out until 4 in the morning the night before and in the parking lot by 7 (that was before the 5-hour tailgating limit). Good times.
Oh...and freak Paul Maguire. That guy had the biggest stick up his derriere when it came to the Jets 24/7.

Maguire was an old Buffalo guy, hated the Jets.
That run with Chad in 2002 was such an amazing time to be a Jet fan. It looked like we had actually found a star QB on his way up and he was carrying the team. Even the game we lost when Chrebet fumbled trying to jump the defender, it looked like Chad had it all under control and we knew we weren't finished like we would have been in past years. And we had Vinny behind him just in case.
-
2002 was fantastic. I was 25, between girlfriends and at the height of my partying days. The team was fun, had guys like Pennington, Curtis and Chrebet that were easy to root for and we won, for the most part. Great year.

It was awful seeing us getting absolutely manhandled by the raiders though after so much promise.

I remember telling my friends before that game, winner goes to the Super Bowl and would lose to Tampa Bay. Sure enough...
But man all that offseason we were the team most talked about, and then Chads arm got snapped in half against the freaking giants in the preseason

The Raiders were favored to win that game. I wasn't exactly surprised we lost. I enjoyed the ride. That was my first year with season tickets and we won the friggin division. As a Jets fan, what more could you ask for?

That Revis pick was the one that bounced off Steve Smith's calf.

One of the luckiest bounces I feel like we have ever gotten.
-
That happened so fast, I was there with a friend who is a Carolina fan, suddenly there's Revis running it in. That was the year Revis shut down all the top WRs, Andre Johnson, Smith, Moss, Ochocinco in back to back weeks, everyone.
The Dennis Byrd game was one of the saddest ever. We just lost Al Toon for good a few weeks earlier, then this, turned out to be O'Brien's last game with us too.
Conversely, I was at the 1981 game with my dad, one of the best times ever. We were in first place, the Sack Exchange was all over Bert Jones, who had always tortured us. We were upper deck in the end zone over home plate, the J E T S chant was roaring, years before anyone ever heard of Fireman Ed.

The Byrd injury is one of the worst I've ever seen. He was out best defensive player and he was still young too. Not that Scott Mersereau was anything to yell home about but that play fucked him up too.
That season sucked in general. The only good thing I remember is Brian Washington with 2 INTs the next week in Buffalo which was probably the biggest upset the entire season. We were like 17 point dogs.

I mean, the ride was fun and all, but we were a talented team with a ton of momentum. Not going all the way was a disappointment. I want to see our team win the championship, so I hate settling for "good rides".

Right, but when you're on the ride you don"t know how it's going to end. So there's nothing wrong with talking about how much you enjoyed it while it was going on. We all know how it ended, that's how it always ends. Except the one time and none of us here seem to have been around for that one, so for now this is what we have.

Fair enough, though I think the disappointment at the end of the season always outweighs the excitement during the ride. Especially when looking back.

That was an amazing season, sad enough, for the Jets. For all the reasons I've already listed, it was beyond fun. I was wasted for most of that season, had very little responsibility other than work back then and hooked up a few times right after games. I don't see why I shouldn't fondly remember any of that stuff because we lost a Divisional playoff game on the road to a team that was better than us.

I didn't remember that image specifically from that game but when I found the pic it seemed perfect. That was a great day, so good to get Chad back and felt like the season and the future was going to be ok. We always think of Chad as this cerebral, fragile guy, I kind of forgot that side of him. He is actually a big dude and he had that goofy, southern exuberance in the game.

It was Chad's "F the haters" game. That first down signal was on all the back pages the next day.

My favorite Chad moment was right after he threw that bomb to Moss in San Diego in the Wild Card game he flexed his muscle in his right arm as a big freak you to everyone who questioned his arm strength. That was hilarious.

Here is a clip, 10:46 long, of Jerome Barkum's career highlights. It's black and white with no sound (as far as I can tell), but a lot of good, clear footage of Namath, Woodall, Todd and Robinson hitting him with long passes.

That was a classic "came out flat" game in the middle of a winning streak. After Vinny's phantom TD my friend and I were leaving, it was funny, the fans were almost running out of the stadium before anyone could call us back in and take the game away.

That was a rented condo on the outter banks of NC. I was working down there in the winter and the whole place was deserted. We got that condo for January and February for about what a week or two in a hotel would have been.

I've always kind of marveled at that because it was the one year in the 40 I've been watching that we didn't even need the break. We won the division with a meaningless game to spare at the end. All the other times when we desperately need something to happen in our favor it never does. Aside from the last TD it was a good thing we had Vinny that day, look at those numbers. There aren't a lot of QBs who could have brought us back from that, Vinny could bring us back from just about anything.

As weird as it sounds, our consistent mediocrity has actually made me more of a die hard fan. I was a bigger fan of the Yankees growing up because I wanted to see a WS so bad. Once we won I wanted nothing more than to see a dynasty. Once we had that I was kind of like "alright, now I can relax as a fan."
With the jets I feel like the longer I wait the sweeter that SB will feel.

Our old seats were 20 rows up from that pylon where Coles rolled in, I always remembered that play. Oddly I couldn't find any pictures from that game which is relatively recent.

By the way, this should be pass interference. A kick to the groin clearly before the ball arrives. Not sure if it can be reviewed 40 years later.

That put him out for the year. If he left for 2012 that had to be his last game with us.

It was really more the end of the beginning, since they still won the game.

Yeah...then they lost the next 3 games. We've sucked ever since. Not that Leonhard was their best player but that was a harbinger of things to come.

Blanchard made that FG, yes. A couple weeks later he would have a crucial miss at Buffalo which would ultimately cost us the playoffs which led to Bruce Coslet being fired.
Ironic on the same date in 1993 and 2011 we would peak at 8-5 before finishing 8-8.

That win in Miami in '98 was such a satisfying win. Went nuts when Cascadden scored that TD.
-
The end of that season was a great time for me. I was in a traveling sales job which had us on the road all year but home from Thanksgiving through New Year's. I was in my condo a year, finally had it furnished, all I had to do was work out, play my guitar and wait for the next Jets game which kept getting better and better. Only break from that was a trip to Buffalo, where I was seeing this girl and we went to the game when the Jets won the division.

Wow, props to Pace for making that happen. From the opposite side of the stadium I didn't see it that clearly. We were so fucked if that didn't happen, too. Our only win in the last five games and it was pretty lucky.

That season fell apart fast, and then we got wind Groh was jumping ship. We were actually in control of that Ravens game for most of the first half, I think Vinny threw a 100 yard pick 6 at the end of the half.
I never knew we beat the Pats to knock them out to end the 1966 season. That must have been a fun day, I've never heard anyone mention it.

I listened to that Seahawks game on the radio on my way back from a track meet. I think there was a nifty direct snap to Lamont Jordan.
I watched that Steelers game at Tully's in Vestal. I ordered the seafood mac n cheese, which turned out to be a terrible choice. It got to room temp quickly and the game was too stressful for me to confidently keep it down so I couldn't finish.

I've learned to eat light and smoke up when the Jets are playing.
The 1998 game was of course a highlight, one of the few road games I've ever gone to, that was far and away the best Jets team I've ever seen. They won the previous Sunday night in Miami and then the early Saturday game at Buffalo, both playoff teams themselves. When Keyshawn caught the clinching first down I thought back to all the previous Jet teams who would have run the ball there, punted, given up the tying TD in ridiculous fashion and lost the game.

Good quality from CBS broadcast, it's the Jets winning drive beginning with a good kickoff return by Bobby Humphrey. It's funny to see the shots of the coaches in the sideline, you see a young Parcells with Romeo Crennel with him, and Joe Walton with his trusty OC Rich Kotite. Not surprisingly, on the winning TD O'Brien called the play himself, you can see Wesley Walker flanked out to the right with his hands out like he couldn't hear the play.

Section 227 from tgg had a story from that game. Last week of the season, Jets were already eliminated, Giants needed a win to get into the playoffs, and as we all know, the Jets win. As he's riding the escalator out of the stadium some woman in Giants gear says to him "Why couldn't you just let us win?", to which he replied, "Lady, you gotta be freaking kidding me."

That's like people wondering why we didn't let the guy from the Titans score Sunday, they just don't understand how the game is played. By the way, am I missing all the condemnation and Twitter hate for the Jags not throwing that game last night or is that just for us?

I haven't checked any Jaguar fan communities but they seem OK with the win. Just a couple fans of other teams here and there saying "the team that lost really won because they got a higher pick."

The thing is that the Jags don't need a QB so for the average fan it's the same if they pick 2nd of 6th (it might be as they have a ton of needs), for us, however, means getting to one of the top QBs or missing them altogether.

Not necessarily.

Yeah, lots of things can happen, but I'm trying to explain why our fanbase (and especially the media) are much more upset for our win than Jax's. Well, that and the fact that nobody gives a excrement about the Jaguars anyway.

The 1981 game, at the time I was 14 and it was one of the best days of my life. I'd never seen the Jets even over 500 and here they were about to have a home playoff game after finishing 10-2-1. There was no doubt they were going to win that game, they jumped on Green Bay early and never let up. Between the wind at Shea and our defense, Green Bay's offense with Lofton and Jefferson never stood a chance.

I thought it was 9. We were laughing our derriere off because he was terrified to throw the football so they kept knocking his teeth in. Haven't felt that bad about our QB situation in a long time, like since the Bollywood days. Then low and behold two years later, and we are watching a bigger disaster play out in front of us.

I don't know if it's worse, Geno is crap but at least we have a high draft pick and tons of cap money.

Thank you. Those are the box scores I use, I looked at the wrong column, we actually sacked Rivers 4 times. I checked the sacks because I remember it being a lot, four didn't sound right, sure enough it wasn't.

We suck eggs on Christmas Eve. Let's never play then again. If memory serves we got the one Christmas Day game a few years back. All I remember was trying to shut my entire family out so I could watch the game. Can't remember the outcome because my family pissed me off so much. In retrospect it's probably good I have no idea.
-
Man I remember that 2000 game. Those last few weeks sucked. A win and we're in. That's all we needed, and we blew it big time.
Even that game. Start out going no huddle, it works, then we abandon it after going up 14-0.
I also remember having a deep conversation about the XFL during that game, my cousin a big wrestling fan and convinced that the XFL will be amazing.
-
I was living in a 2nd floor condo in 2000, a back unit next to a school and a field. I picked up my NY Post the next morning and hurled it into the field still in the bag. Got amazing distance.
Was at the 1995 game, not a lot of folks there as you can see. The highlight was going home and seeing someone kick a FG to get us the #1 overall pick which we already knew would be Keyshawn. I want to say it was Jacksonville, they were an expansion team and one of the three teams we beat.
During the 1994 game the Jets announced GM Dick Steinberg had terminal cancer, he died before the next season.

One reason I have reservations about the 2000 Ravens D is that game. They were awesome from the second half of that game on through the Super Bowl, but when people put them in the category with the 85 Bears I can't help but think of Vinny putting up 400+ yards on them. We also played the 85 Bears with a comparable offense and could barely move the ball. We got 6 points including a very long FG by Leahy. O'Brien was not the QB Vinny was but he had Walker, Toon, Schuler, McNeil, Hector, a lot of weapons.

We left early 4th quarter, thinking they were never bringing Vinny in for a chance at the record of most consecutive years with a TD pass.
I went to the 2010 game in Chicago. Flew out early the morning after Christmas, just beat a huge snowstorm, met my friends in the lot for their tailgate. The storm canceled flights for the next few days, I ended up renting a car and driving back. Had great seats.

By the way, that 2001 loss was one of the underrated terrible losses in Jets history. Buffalo was something like 3-13 and they beat us at home, costing us the division. Win that game we had a bye with a second round home game vs Oakland which was the night they ended up going to New England in the snow and playing that game. Instead we had to go to Oakland two weeks in a row and got beat in the first round, New England went on to win their first Super Bowl.

It wouldn't have mattered if we hadn't fucked up the second game against New England, a game I watched in a sports bar with Pats fans who said "Wow, I can't believe...how did we win that?".

Closest I ever came to an actual dumpster dive. I had bought playoff tickets a few weeks earlier even though it looked bleak, thinking the money would just roll into the following year. When we got the home game I went to the dumpster in my complex to see if I could spot my garbage bag which might have the stuff from the Jets. Instead of going in I realized I could call the Jets with my account number, which worked.

One of the biggest pressure kicks I've ever seen. Clock running down, 53 yards, on the road, season on the line. I know he missed a couple big ones in his career but he also made a lot, this being one of the biggest.

As much as I initially laughed at this comment I had to abruptly stop when I realized just how true this is. Herm was inept and we all called the Chiefs impeding collapse when he got there.

Literally he's a knucklehead. He is an engaging personality but it stops there, I think DCM has a better Football mind.

How did he even get hired? He was a DB coach the previous year. No experience.

What a great game and what a great win - Pennington was masterful.

One of his finest moments, and he played the game badly in need of surgery on his throwing shoulder. I think John Abraham sat out with a mild cold.

That Oakland game in 2003. I remember being at a bar with some degenerate friends from back in the day. Some Oakland fan chick kept cheering nonstop, after every Jet interception or Oakland score. We kept telling her to shut the freak up but she kept going. One of my friends at the time (who's now in prison not surprisingly) goes up to her boyfriend and tells him if she doesn't stop he'll kick the excrement out of him. He stood his ground. Wrong move. Dude got his derriere kicked, and it turned into a shitshow. Cops came and everything. It was pretty cool.

Doug Brien; Never trust a man with two first names. That Pittsburgh loss was hard to stomach, another episode of incompetence that scars the New York Football Jets.
Sadly, I fear this thread is fast approaching it's end.
Can I offer a word of sincere thanks to Italian Seafood for all the research and great photographs that have accompanied this time line. Brought back a lot of happy memories and a lot of anguish too.
Time will tell if IS and me were right about ejecting Rex; somewhere down the line when revisiting this thread I hope not to see a picture of a hapless Todd Bowles looking on in despair.........

Haha, thanks. There are six games left to recap, the Rex haters might want to look away the next couple of days. But if this thread teaches us anything it's that Jet fans are about regrouping and surviving, which we now have to do again.
As for the thread, this was the first season without my dad after 40 with him, so it gave me the idea to go back and relive a lot of the games we watched together and ones he told me about. History has a way of standing objectively by itself and of course Super Bowl III is part of it, our moment that nobody can ever take away.
-
I agree. A great thread indeed, and sorry for your loss, IS.
The reason why I always loved Lance Mehl. That LA game is the first game I can actually remember in my life.
-
I still think think Herm "you play to win the game (except in Pittsburgh)" Edwards deserves the blame for that, not Brien. He obviously missed the kicks, but Edwards hung him out to dry, especially the 2nd attempt. You can't be setting up 40 yard plus field goals in the middle of January at Heinz Field. He had Pennington actually kneel back a few yards right before the kick. What are you thinking??

I've been a Jets fan for almost 20 years, and that game was one of my all time favorites.
I had the attached back page hanging up in my office for weeks.

I saved a ton of newspaper back pages and stuff like that from around 2008 until 2012 when things went bad. I wish I still had them, would have been nice wall art for an eventual mancave.
-
That game ranks as the biggest win I've ever seen. We've won in the divisional round a few other times but given it was against New England up there this one has to be the biggest.

I don't think this picture is from that game. #50 looks like Eric Barton, not Vernon Gholston.
23's face is obscured so we can't tell if it's Shonn Greene. Revis is there so it can't be from before 2007. I think it's from the 2008 win in Foxboro.

I think you're right, because they appear to be reacting to a sudden win like Feely's 2008 kick. I was trying to figure out what moment in the playoff game they could have been reacting to, this would explain it. Good catch.
Edit: Moved the picture to the right game. Has to be 2008--2007 was in the rain during the day, 2009-2011 were losses and Revis was gone after that.
-
They swept us in 2007 so I knew it couldn't have been that year anyway. Too many smiling faces.

I've been a Jets fan for almost 20 years, and that game was one of my all time favorites.

That Oakland game in 2003. I remember being at a bar with some degenerate friends from back in the day. Some Oakland fan chick kept cheering nonstop, after every Jet interception or Oakland score. We kept telling her to shut the freak up but she kept going. One of my friends at the time (who's now in prison not surprisingly) goes up to her boyfriend and tells him if she doesn't stop he'll kick the excrement out of him. He stood his ground. Wrong move. Dude got his derriere kicked, and it turned into a shitshow. Cops came and everything. It was pretty cool.
That's not cool. That's retarded. Your friend beat the excrement out of a guy because his girlfriend was cheering for a different team. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

Also I added some video of the Denver AFC Championship Game. That had to be the most disappointing loss to me because that 1998 team was the most legit we've ever had. They were 12-4, got the bye, they were on a total roll, even hotter than Denver who had started 13-0. Most if not all of our other teams to get that far were underdogs, this team had they made it to the Super Bowl would certainly have won it and probably in a rout.

Suffice to say today sucks in the annals of Jets history. I remember that freaking 1983 game, god I wanted to shoot that old queynte for letting the field become muck so they could win.
Edit: I also wanted to shoot that queynte Todd, what a excrement performance.

Yeah, both of those teams were among the best we've ever had. You have to put the Super Bowl 1968 team first, I would go with Parcells 1998 team second, these two (1982, 2010) are the next two, whichever way you call it.

A great Ken Obrien interview, I loved his Herschel Walker story, it's fantastic.
http://www.jeffpearlman.com/ken-obrien/ (http://www.jeffpearlman.com/ken-obrien/)
When I finally got to Philly, well, I wish I’d stayed in New York for 20 years. Going to Philly was a great life experience, because Philly was so different than anything I’d seen in the world of football before. It was just crazy. It was run by the prisoners a bit. Buddy Ryan had just left and he bent over backward to give the players all sorta of controls. Especially defensive players. Then Richie Kotite came in and he was there and he had all the holdovers from Buddy’s era, and there was just some crazy funny stuff, things that would never happen in the 10 years in New York. There were just some outstanding stories …
J.P.: Wait! How about an example?
K.O.: It was every day. Guys were on their own schedules, they showed up when they wanted to. There was a race one day … this is a great one. It was late in the year and Philly had an offense vs. defense type deal. That’s what Buddy had instilled—defense would win games, offense just couldn’t screw it up. That’s the short version of the impression I got when I talked with other guys. Because I never played for Buddy. And Zeke Bartkowski was the quarterback coach, and he had that job with the Jets. I became friends with Mark Bavaro and Herschel Walker (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRVE1TQvGzA)—go down the list and there were a bunch of really good guys there. It was an opportunity to be with some quality guys. And one day at practice I was walking with Herschel, and we had a defensive back named Mark McMillian (http://articles.philly.com/2008-11-26/sports/24997890_1_sexual-abuse-flag-football-kids). He’s a little guy, probably one of the really fast corners in the league. And a bunch of guys were giving Herschel a hard time, and Herschel never said anything. And they were laughing at him, calling him an old man. Herschel and I were close to the same age, and he was so accomplished. They didn’t even know he’d won the Heisman Trophy. They had no idea all he’d accomplished. And Herschel didn’t say a word. It was snowing, we were practicing outside, and Mark challenged Herschel to a race. And I was taking bets, and I was putting everything on Herschel. I promoted him. And he gets out and they get on the field, and Richie Kotite and Bud Carson are holding some DO NOT CROSS tape. And they’ve got down jackets on, gloves, hats. It’s freezing out. And here comes McMillian, and he’s got his tights on. Everyone else is freezing, but Mark has the tights on. And Herschel doesn’t show up. He’s not there. He’s not coming out. And they’re all making fun. “Your buddy’s not coming out. Hahahaha.” And finally here comes Herschel, and he’s coming out like he’s going to practice, gear on—shoulder pads, pants, helmet. And they’re like, ‘He’s not gonna run!” Making fun. And he walks up to the line and says, “OK, you ready to go?” And they get down to race, and guys are lined up—offense on one side, defense on the other.
On your mark …
Get set …
Go …
And when they said “Go,” the look on the kid’s face after five yards was disbelief. Herschel comes up and he’s gone. And Mark knows at five yards he’s done. This speeding bullet goes by. And Herschel beats him, and Coach Kotite has the money in his hand, Herschel jogs by, grabs it, jogs into the locker room and practice is over. That was it. Everyone was laughing. It was the funniest thing you’d ever seen. The poor kid had no idea he was with a world-class sprinter.

Dick Steinberg was hired as GM around the last week of the 1989 season and fired Joe Walton after the last game. First choice for a coach was Michigan State's George Perles, who didn't want the job. Another candidate was Mike Holmgren, then an offensive assistant with San Francisco. I don't remember if it was the Jets or Holmgren who thought he wasn't ready to be a head coach, he of course took the Green Bay job two years later and had great success. That was the same year they got Brett Favre, who we also just missed on in the 1991 draft. Bruce Coslet was another coach from the Bill Walsh offensive coaching tree and ran Cincinnati's dynamic offense, so he became the choice, then named Pete Carroll, Minnesota's secondary coach, as the DC.

Out of all the fucked up choices of head coaches the Jets made, for me this was by far and away the lamest and signaled the way our franchise went forward. All that went before in the relative modern era went down the pan and poor Hess in his last years was desperate for success and wanted to roll the dice. Really, nothing seems to have changed. I hope you now know how nervous I am.
To use an I.S analogy I'm deep on the back 9, have snapped my putter in temper and have the toughest holes to negotiate.

Anyone who doesn't understand our distaste for rebuilding, coaching searches and the draft needs to look no further than this history thread. Not to say those activities don't need to happen when necessary, but I'm long past the point of getting excited or optimistic about them. As I said before, call me when (if) we ever get back to the playoffs and win a game.

Did he sound like a retard back then too?
Pretty much. He had the team practice a fight song and the national anthem, and he bolted before the last game of the season. On the bright side, his glasses are almost back in style in some parts of the world.
With Walt Michaels, retired is in quotes because it was pretty clear they pushed him out. Joe Walton was a top OC and there was a lot of speculation that he would take a head coach job elsewhere. He was credited with turning Richard Todd's career around, the Jets had invested a #1 pick and seven seasons into Todd and didn't want to let Walton get away. Michaels was oddly then blackballed from future NFL jobs and ended up coaching the New Jersey Generals of the USFL to a 14-4 season.

Yeah, I didn't just wake up one day and hate the draft, it's been in the crock pot for 40+ years.

Interesting, probably more legendary and less controversial that he's in the Hall of Fame. When he first came out of college the doctors only thought he would play 4 or 5 years because of his knee, so a lot of people would have figured that to be an underlying issue.
-
I wonder if he would be in the HOF considering Terrell Davis is not. There would have been a lot of "What-If's" in Jets land had he left early.

I don't know the criteria, I think in baseball he wouldn't have played long enough. But to nyjunc's point, pretty much everything he did that got him into the Hall had been done by June of 1969, after that he kind of watered down his stats despite having some small scale success and great individual games. Nothing against TD but he didn't have the impact on the game overall that Joe did, John Elway was considered the leader of those teams, rightly or not.
-
Joe had a huge impact on the game of football, would he have made the Hall if he retired after SB III? he still would have already had that impact as brief as it would have been. it's an interesting question.

I'm thinking he would have gotten in unless the Hall has some rule you have play a minimum number of years. Nothing he did after that really helped him--more INTs than TDs, one playoff loss, a lot of injuries.

But Terrell Davis isn't in, and his impact was the same as pre-1970 Namath's.

Maybe on the field in terms of yardage and statistics, but Namath was a cultural figure who was bigger than the game and raised pro football in the national consciousness. He gave the AFL credibility coming out of Alabama and of course Super Bowl III brought him to another level and changed the game, made the Super Bowl what it was. I think that's what really makes him a Hall of Fame player, not really the stats or record he ended up with.
Those Denver teams with Davis, fair or not, are really remembered as the end of John Elway's long quest to bring Denver the championship. It probably never would have happened without Davis but also not without Elway.

I do agree his larger than life presence contributed to him being a HOF'er too, but on the field Namath was a HOF'er pre-1970 - or certainly playing on a level destined for the HOF.
Davis' three year run from 1996-98 is arguably the best 3 year run any RB has ever had, and if he hadn't gotten injured he would have likely continued on that tremendous pace (obviously not 2k every year)
-
Respectfully disagree.
He didn't have the off-field - larger than life presence Namath had, but on the field he was every bit and probably even better than Namath was. I know I just said it in the post above, but his three year stretch from 96-98 is among the greatest any RB has ever had.

Everyone continues to compare modern players to oldtimers. Namath had a huge impact on how the game is played. Namath was the beginning of the new era QB where as good as Davis was, the RB has dwindled in value since. Namath is in the hall for as much impact as his playing career. The fucked up thing is not one of us opining on him ever saw him play. Without any context an otherworldly 3 year stretch doesn't get you in the Hall of Fame without a significant impact elsewhere.

Namath is in for what he meant to the game more than his actual play on the field.
-

I saw him play his last three years as a Jet, he and my dad are the reasons I became a Jet fan. First game I ever went to was his last win as starting QB, vs the Bucs at Shea in 1976.
Of course what I saw in 1974-77 was an old, beat-up version of Joe with occasional greatness but no ability to move in the pocket, which became a huge liability, especially on terrible teams. The mystique preceded him, I had to read up on how great he was in his younger days. The fact that he hung in as long as he did might have actually helped him, despite tarnishing some of his statistics in terms of win-loss record and TD-INT comparisons.

I could have answered my question by just looking at Darryle Lamonica. He was a guy that put up monster numbers for a brief period of time but never made it to the HOF. He put up BETTER numbers than even Namath did! Lamonica's stretch from 67-70 are far superior to Namath's minus a SB Championship. I don't disagree that Namath is in the HOF mostly because of his off-field impact more than his on field play.

I don't remember the circumstances that led to Baltimore not keeping Vinny, but credit has to go to Belichick who coached him in Cleveland and knew he could play. Pains me to say that now but credit where it's due.

what credit would BB get?

I believe he was the one who suggested to Parcells that Vinny would be an asset to the Jets and we should get him. Basing that only on memory at this point but it makes sense, as they had success together with the Browns.

I believe Modell thought he was done and made the move to release him. Love Vinny. In my lifetime, the run in 98 and Chads ascension in 2002 are the best QB play I've ever seen from anyone in a Jets uniform.

The sad thing is I have no concrete recollection of 1998. I have a vague memory of the turnaround after the slow start, that's it.

I think '98 was the first year that I became a serious fan. I was casually following in '96, got interested again in '97, but was legitimately excited in '98.

I remember three things distinctly from the 98 season. Garrison Hearst's run, bailing on "volunteering" at a school thing early with my dad to watch the Jax game, and crying after the Denver game.

I also remember the hype going into the '99 season. The Start Over stuff. Man I think we were the favorites that year.

we were one of the favorites and people just point to Vinny getting hurt which was a killer but we had a million other injuries. That was maybe the worst season in my lifetime knowing BP likely wasn't coming back then getting punched in the gut again w/ BB quitting and then having a dynasty in NE.

Even sadder is Geno got the day 1 start and Chad had to wait until nearly halfway through his third season. And post-Achilles Vinny wasn't even good enough to warrant that sort of staying power.

times were different back then and Vinny's last season w/ us prior to 200 was probably the best season in NYJ history for a QB.

No one would disagree with those two points, but it's still annoying that the respective circumstances stifled a good player and gave a bad one more playing time.
I know you'll want to argue that Geno can become a good player, but so far he's been a turd.
-
It would've been tough to yank Vinny especially since he wasn't the reason we underachieved those years. 1998 bought him a lot of time.
-
To be fair, Chad was drafted to sit behind Vinny and Lucas which he did, Geno only started because Sanchez got hurt two weeks before the season. My point is we felt the need to upgrade when we had Pennington, now we have Geno and we bring in an injured backup.

Vinny was by no means a disaster but he wasn't really good either. But with the team still finishing with a decent record, the attitude of the coaches, and the general way things were done in the NFL back then, it's not surprising that Chad stayed on the bench for so long.

It's a shame with the older players like Namath. He literally had knee surgery in the dark ages. I played poker with a bunch of old NFL players (no big names) and every single one of them have more than 1 artificial joint be it both knees or both sides of the hips etc and lots of health related problems. It really is amazing how far they have come in just 30 years with knee surgery, really any surgery related to sports injury. Namath might have had a much better career.

I will always defend the Brett Favre trade. The Jets were playing the best football in the NFL midseason. Then Favre got hurt and it all fell apart. We saw the next year that Favre still had something in the tank. It was very difficult to trust Chad at that point, and they took a shot on a guy with huge upside.
Chad got hurt every other year, while Favre was arguably the most durable QB in NFL history. Yet Chad stayed healthy and Favre got hurt (or something).
It was a worthwhile gamble that didn't work out. And it didn't cripple the team going forward, as they made the AFC Championship the next 2 years.

Favre supposedly got hurt in October then had his only good stretch of football in November. His injury didn't cost us, Favre not wanting to be here cost us.
it helped us long term as Favre got Mangini fired, we brought in Rex and made 2 title games but in 2008 that trade cost us a rare division title and a chance at a SB in a not too tough AFC.
-
I understand the argument for the trade, and used to always be of nyjunc's opinion that it worked out for the best, but looking back now I'm not so sure.
Had Rex and Sanchez stayed and been successful over a long time then yes, it was worthwhile, but that didn't happen. It would have been great to see what we could have done with Rex and the 2009 and 2010 defense and running teams with Chad Pennington instead of Mark Sanchez. Obviously we don't know if Mangini would have been fired and Rex hired if Chad were here rather than Favre, but it's very possible. We did go 9-7 with Favre and Mangini got fired anyway.
When you think about it we've never really been settled and secure at QB since the trade happened, although we hoped and thought we were with Sanchez. We knew Favre was a year to year deal at best, Sanchez flamed out and here we are hoping Geno can crack the top 30.

If anything it would have pushed us into the 2010-12 range for drafting a QB, which was so all over the place it's impossible to draw a conclusion on whether we would have been better off.

There's really no way to know, it's all speculation. Especially if you keep Chad because any snap could have been his last. Maybe he goes down for good in 2011 and we get Luck, it's impossible to know. Like the expression about going back in time and killing a butterfly, or whatever the freak.

Those were exciting times. I don't miss the almost constant anxiety. The only good thing about the Jets being shitty is that my stress level is lower on Sundays.

Speaking as a Yankee fan, winning greatly reduces your stress levels even during the playoffs. You get that "oh well, at least I had (insert years here)" in your head as a backup in case they lose.
But as a Jets fan, the more seasons that go with them losing, the more stressful I'll get when they get to the playoffs. It's the "who knows when they'll get here again?!" kind of stress. That's the worst.

I was the calmest one at the party yesterday, reveling in the misery of others.

We're still the only AFC East team besides the Patriots to win a playoff game since 2000.
despite our recent ineptitude we have more PO wins than the following teams since 2000:
Miami
Buffalo
Dallas
Washington
Cincy
Cleveland
Detroit
Minnesota
Chicago
Houston
Tennessee
Jax
Atlanta
Tampa Bay
Kansas City
San Diego
Oakland
Arizona
Rams
and we have the same # as SF

Just so we can wallow in self pity; a reminder to all that it's the 12th of January again.

January 16, was a good night.
Quite possibly the greatest win I’ve ever experienced. It trumped San Diego tomake the AFCCG the year before. The only other feeling that came close was the second Braylon caught the bomb in the year befores AFCCG against the Colts in the mid second quarter when we had all the momentum.
Nothing will ever top that game for me until we advance to a super bowl.

I've been meaning to add in 2018 now that it's over and update the lost pictures. Now that it's on page 1 I guess I'll have to.

Yesterday wasn't the best day to bump it.

I've updated this with the 2018 regular season games, the trade with Indy (March 17), already had added drafting Darnold (April 26). Also fixed and added some pictures, removed the missing ones. If I missed anything let me know.

Some psycho has put the old MSG Sportsdesk highlights of most of the 96 season on youtube along with really great assorted Jets stuff (Parcells introductory presser, random games from 98, etc). Kotite's post-game press conferences are unbelievable. This place would have freaking melted down.

Found this gem on YouTube, 25 minute condensed version of the game. One of my greatest Jets memories growing up, I hadn't seen it since that day. And of all things Vin Scully had the play-by-play. A rarity because the game was on CBS, as we were home vs an NFC team. Giants had beaten the Cowboys on the Saturday, the win put both NY teams in the playoffs for the first time in over a decade.

Bills at Jets 1981 Wild Card (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIhvR9GcSRI)
Watched this last night, an epic game. Broke my heart when I saw it live, but years later just a crazy game start to finish. The Jets didn't play their best but battled back the whole game. First playoff game after a 12 year drought, only one at Shea I ever saw. You can see the Sack Exchange at it's peak, players like Gastineau, Klecko, Lyons and Buttle in their prime. McNeil was a rookie, Wesley Walker also in his prime, had a terrible game.
Richard Todd is one of the most underrated Jets of all time. I'm not sure whey he's never been brought back, considering the Jets are usually pretty good about handling ex players. This was not his best game but you can see the toughness.

I was at that Texans game, I remember being so encouraged by Sanchez sacking up and driving the team down the field to snatch the victory after almost blowing it. That throw to Santonio was gorgeous.
Quincy played really well for us in 04 filling in for Chad. Shame he couldn't sort out his personal life because I definitely thought he had the tools to be a solid starter in the league. And to think, if he doesn't fail a drug test in Dallas its very likely that a young free agent rookie named Tony Romo gets waived.

Yawn. Who gives a excrement?
It's not even the butt fumble that pissed me off, thats for the losers in Bristol to make a big deal out of.
But being down 35-0 to the Pats and having fireworks go off to celebrate a field goal to make it 35-3 is a pretty embarrassing.
I was about three rows behind Fireman Ed and had a nice view of the abuse he was taking that wound up causing him to go into self-imposed exile for a little while (and I wish he'd stay there), so that was cool.

Three things I remember about this game:
1. The Revis pick six.
2. The halftime show featuring dogs catching frisbees. One dog mounted another on like the 30 yard line and started going to town which led to a huge standing ovation from the home faithful. Seriously I don't ever think I've heard a cheer that loud, inclusive of ring of honor ceremonies for what goes on at halftime.
3.. Being told to shut up in the car on the way home because I was outright giddy over the possibility of being back in the playoff hunt. That feeling was maintained for two weeks as they beat the Bills in Toronto (freak Marshall Faulk for saying something to the effect of, "well neither of these teams will be playoff bound'), and Kellen putting together the worst performance out of a quarterback in a 23 point victory I've ever seen before an absolutely brutal last-second home loss to Atlanta caused me to throw my hat to the ground as we were leaving the stadium and say, "TEAR THIS PIECE OF excrement DOWN, I'M SO GLAD I NEVER HAVE TO STEP FOOT IN THIS PLACE AGAIN."
Of course Jim Caldwell/Curtis Painter and every team losing that needed to lose would open up the door again then next week and two weeks later I'd be freezing my derriere off in a state of euphoria as the Jets destroyed Cincy at home to take the final wild-card spot. 2009 was insane man.

I was thinking about that year last night, as hopeless as the playoff seemed. There was a Thursday night upset, I think Jacksonville beat someone, then the week we lost the Atlanta game and Rex thought we were out, our chances actually increased from everyone else losing.
Revis vs Steve Smith was part of that great year when he went against so many #1 WRs and shut them down.

1970: Home loss to Oakland 14-13. Emerson Boozer 26 car, 115 yds; Al Woodall 9-22, 99 yds, TD, INT; Daryle Lamonica to Warren Wells winning TD. Jets go 4-8.
So this is pretty amazing, 50 years ago Sunday the same thing happened at home (Shea) vs the Raiders on the last play of the game. If anyone follows Old Time Football on Twitter they have the clip, posted yesterday. You can't make it up.

This thread is updated with the 2020 games (you're welcome) and coaching change. I also removed as many dead pictures as I could find and added a bunch of links to highlights from Twitter--mostly Timeless Jets and Old Time Football.

Looking back, that game and the subsequent one were probably my emotional high and low as a Jets fan. I can't remembering taking a loss worse than the Steelers game.l

Loved this Chargers game.
If only Carmella listened to Tony and bet this game they could've turned her bullshit into a fuckin million dollars.
...I love how much the Jets were referenced on that show.
