Just found this while browsing another site.http://youtube.com/watch?v=wLdNw7D7G3M I have only been to 2 jet games in my life and this happened to be one of them. I remember being so psyched at halftime (I think we were up 21-3). Even got to witness a S. Moss TD punt return. And of course it all ended in shambles when the lead was blown and we lost after a blocked FG, 24-21.
CRAP...I should have known! You were the reason we lost that game! I was there too man...the worst was the hail mary 2 point conversion by Tim Couch. He was about to be sacked and he blindly just threw the ball up in the air...
I've only been to two games in my life also... both WINS game #1: Colts at Jets, AFC Wild Card Game Jets: 41 - Colts: 0 game #2: Raiders at Jets, December 11, 2005 Jets: 26 - Raiders: 10
I have been to almost all of the games since 2002... Thes best were the Packers and the Colts games...truly awesome.
Ditto, it was my first jet game that I'd ever been too (relative has season tickets, he couldn't go) and it was just such a great 1st half. Man was I pissed in at the end, that blocked FG just sent me over the edge. If I'm correct, wasn't that penny's first start at the time and we dropped to 2-5? Then we started our playoff run after that game, what a great season 02 turned out to be.
I could care less about this loss, I'm still trying to recover from the 1986 playoff debacle! Damn you Bernie Kosar....Damn you!!!!!!!!
Wasn't that when Ellis was dragging down Couch and he still got it off for the TD (or 2 point conversion, can't remember)?
Stupid Tim Couch and that 2 point conversion. Yeah I was there too. Agreed the Greenbay game but before when we were watching on the screen the dolphins in a miracle come back so that we had a chance at winning the division. Truly Remarkable. Plus the Colts game in the playoffs was one of the best.
2002 was such a fun year to be a jets fan....a damn roller coaster.....starting out looking like we would suck, then chad comes in and we win a few, and then this damn browns game....ok we start winning again after regrouping, and then wayne chrbet thinks he's all of a sudden superman and BOOM, there goes our playoff chances.... or did they?? an ass kicking in foxboro the next week, along with a fins collapse gives us hope in week 17.... even though we didn't even make it to the afc championship, being there at giants stadium watching the jets blow out the packers and the colts in back to back weeks felt like we won the superbowl
Ah yes, Another Damien Robinson breakdown moment. As Couch is falling to his ass he lofts up a prayer and Damien Robinson stands there looking at the ball and just watches it as it goes in front of him right to the receiver. I HATE THAT F*N GUY!!!
A few days after this game was Halloween I wallked outside my home to chat with some neighbors - One of them said to me I am surprised your showing your face the way the Jets are playing -- I looked at him and said -- Im not worried theyre going to come back- they all started laughing at me we know the rest of the story -- He who laughs last....
