THE BARON Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Which would you say was the best Jets team (not counting 1969) ??? Which would have had the best chance to win the Super Bowl if they had advanced ??? 1982 Jets (Would Have played Redski... No, No... Red Wolves in Super Bowl) 1986 Jets (Would Have played Giants in Super Bowl) 1998 Jets (Would Have Played CORRECTION *ATLANTA* in Super Bowl) 2001 Jets (Would Have Played St. Louis Rams In Super Bowl) 2006 Jets (Would Have Played Chicago In Super Bowl) 2009 Jets (Would Have Played Saints In Super Bowl) 2010 Jets (Would Have Played Green Bay In Super Bowl) The way I see it, the most talented team was the 1982 team. The team that had the best chance to win the Super Bowl had they advanced was the 1998 Jets. A close second being the 2010 Jets. If they didn't have so many injuries, the very talented 1986 Jets team would have beat the Giants. Comments ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nico002 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Funny thing is that even if you take the best Jets team in history, I am not sure I would feel totally comfortable taking them on a bet to say cover a 4 point spread vs the 2020 roster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UntouchableCrew Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 98 was the best team with the best change to win it all in my lifetime. Why list the 2001 team rather than 2002? 02 was clearly better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other teams were very talented and had a good shot, but I agree here. The 1998 team would have gotten past Atlanta in the Super Bowl without any problem. IMHO, Parcells outcoached himself in that game vs. Denver. I also remember Vinny missing a wide open R. Anderson in the endzone that would have change the game. Vinny felt pressure that wasn't there and he dirted the ball just out of Anderson's reach... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great teams are based on the collective, not the individual parts. That 1998 team won 12 games and should have been in the Super Bowl. It was also the first Jets team to win its division SINCE 1969. (Yes, the 2002 team won its division too....at 9-7, and lost in the Divisional Round). Oh, and in terms of point differential, the 1998 Jets were +150. That is # 1 in Jets history. The '68 Jets (not '69) was +139. The next best in the post-merger era was the '85 team, at +129. All of that makes it the 2nd best team in Jets' history, and its not close. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 1998 team. One of the best coaching staffs in NFL history. The 82 team was great but the Skins were better. Gibbs was an all time great HC. Better QB, better WR, better OL, better overall D. The 1998 team was better than Atlanta. The 82 team was not better than the skins. The Skins weren't really challenged in any of their playoff games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn306 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 1998 would have had the best shot at winning the Super Bowl. 1982 was the best team. Sack Exchange, McNeil, Shuler. Walker, really good O-LINE If they 86 team had stayed healthy and the offense played the way they did those first 11 games they would have destroyed the AFC. Going against the Giants would have been a really interesting game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buttle, Blinka and Mehl as a unit were super good against the run. Their defensive backs were also very good as a unit. Bobby Jackson and Jerry Holmes were both very good CB's. Ken Schroy and Darrol Ray were a really nice safety tandem. If Ray managed to get the ball in his hands, he was gonna take it all the way. As good as the Redskins were, the Jets could have won that game if they didn't turn the ball over.

RoadFan Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 98. Well balanced and extremely well coached. Parcells thought he had a team good enough to win his 3rd SB. So did many of us. Missed opportunity. I was at the 98 AFCCG in Denver. Old Mile High never really got rocking until the Broncos tied it at 10. Dead quiet at half time and after Curtis scored the short TD.

There is no point in having a good regular season if your quarterback can't elevate his play and win playoff games against bigtime defenses. VT '98 is the reason we lost in Denver. He was as bad as Pennington in Oakland in '02. Sanchez? Played very well in 6 playoff games, and all you can say about his worst playoff game is that he led us back with 50 seconds on the clock to end the Peyton Manning dynasty in Indianapolis.
