New York Jets Tickets Continued
New York Jets, professional football team and one of five teams in the Eastern Division of the American Football Conference (AFC) of the National Football League (NFL). Formerly called the Titans, the Jets play at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and wear uniforms of green and white.
In 1969 the Jets, then members of the American Football League (AFL), recorded one of the most dramatic upsets in professional football history, stunning the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III.
In 1968 Namath directed New York to the AFL championship. He then brashly predicted a victory over the heavily favored NFL-champion Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III. Namath delivered on his promise as the Jets shocked the Colts 16-7. Ewbank, who coached the Baltimore Colts to an NFL Championship in 1959 (before the Super Bowl was played between the NFL and AFL), became the only head coach to win championships in both leagues, and Namath was named AFL most valuable player (MVP).
The Jets made back-to-back playoff appearances in 1981 and 1982, led by Richard Todd, Freeman McNeil, Mark Gastineau, and Joe Klecko. In 1981 the team led the NFL in quarterback sacks as Gastineau notched 20 and Klecko totaled 20½. New York reached the AFC Championship Game in the 1982 season but was defeated by the Miami Dolphins, 14-0. Around this time the Jets' intimidating defensive line became known as the New York Sack Exchange; the nickname was derived from the fact that New York City houses the New York Stock Exchange.
At the end of the 1996 season, the Jets traded four draft picks to the New England Patriots to gain the right to hire coach Bill Parcells, who had guided both the New York Giants and the Patriots to Super Bowl appearances.
