The STRANGEST ENDING in New York Jets HISTORY | Bengals @ Jets (1993)

- Опубліковано 18 лип 2022
- In a 1993 NFL week 12 game at Giants Stadium between the New York Jets and the Cincinnati Bengals, the final second of the game took roughly 10 minutes to complete. And that was because the New York Jets and head coach Bruce Coslet, somehow, did not know the rules, despite the rule being a fairly well known rule. And after the game, Coslet's explanation for why he didn't know the rule was nothing short of asinine. This is the story behind the 1993 Jets, and the strangest ending to a game in franchise history

No wonder Charlie Jones and Todd Christensen, who called the game for NBC, were hysterical! Coslet made himself look crazy that day.
Not a shock that the 90s Jets and Bengals were involved in a game with insane incompetence
Of the 28 Head Coaches in the league that season, Bruce Coslet certainly was one of them.
I remember Boomer Esiason telling a story about this game and how during the strike he and the rest of the Bengals practiced taking safeties.
Love Ronnie Lott’s eye roll at 12:47!
Fun fact: Lott was involved in both games talked about in this video.
@@DolFan316 So were Coslet and Esiason.
So were My tears
I remember playing in my yard back in grade school (30+ years ago). We had a safety and, sure enough everyone knew that you had to punt and could not use a tee.
Follow up question: Did Bruce Coslet look kind of dumb with a finger and a thumb in the shape of an L on his forehead?
Hey now
I remember these Coslet years well. Jets' videos never seem to end well when it comes to coaching. Great video. You really nailed what happened perfectly and the lack of knowledge and explanation on that date. Excellent!
What a young looking Pete Carrol on the jets sideline
Yes!
I had the same thought
He was Jets D Cooridinator 1990-93
In their last 6 games following this win, the Jets averaged a robust six(6) points a game. Between an anemic offense and questionable coaching, they became worse than 39.6
How do you get shut out thrice in a 6-game stretch?! That's 1977 Buccaneers-like ineptitude on offense.
Bruce Coslet was such a tool
Which is about the same as if you spiked it into the ground for every pl--wait, wrong stat.
I painfully remember. Defense was primed and ready. Championship level Defense.
I've watched many of your videos now, but this one really did make me laugh the most. Hilarious! Thanks!
As a lifelong Jets fan, it was a long 4 years with Bruce Coslet as head coach. I saw this game on TV. The Jets were honoring the 25th anniversary of the 1968 Super Bowl championship team. After this game the Jets went 2-4., including losing to Houston 24-0 in a final must win game , to finish 8-8 and Coslet got fired
Still shorter than the 5 years with Kotite… well, it felt like 5 years
Coslet, carol, Richie k bad years
The Jets were a mediocre team masquerading as a playoff contender.
They needed one win in their last 3 games and in those games had to play the Cowboys (Super Bowl champs on the way to their 2nd in a row), at Buffalo (Super Bowl runner up 3 straight years and on the way to their 4th appearance in as many seasons) and at Houston (hottest team in the league, with 10 straight wins heading in). That's a brutal schedule for anybody, let alone the marginally talented Jets.
They should have beaten the Bills, but Cary Blanchard missed a bunch of FG's. The other two games weren't close because despite their record, the Jets weren't very good. Most of their wins that year came against the bottom rung of the league.
Heading into that last stretch, they went 3 games in a row without scoring a TD, yet somehow went 2-1 in those games, both being shutouts.
It was the 9-6 loss at home to the Colts that cost them the playoffs, or the games they completely choked against the Eagles and Raiders earlier in the season. All very winnable games for teams that weren't the Jets. Not the murderers row they had to end with.
@@footwork216 That 93 Oilers defense was lights out. This guy doesn't put everything into perspective. Most of his videos that deal with oldschool football (70s - 90s) don't put everything into perspective.
@Coogan ok
You say the Jets are the only team that could lose a game they'd won, but that once happened for real. In 1959, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers lost a game to the Saskatchewan Roughriders despite them having won the game because Saskatchewan played an ineligible QB. This was actually the second game the Roughriders played with an ineligible QB and both were done with every team knowing that he was ineligible.
Dewayne Rudd helmet game with the browns was a loss on a game they had won too. 0:00 on the clock, dead ball, up 2…only for a flag for taking his helmet off during the play to give the chiefs an untimed down and 15 yards to get into field goal range.
Only the Jets could find a way to make a WIN be overshadowed by an embarrassing last-second coaching gaffe.
Jest vs Bungles? Surely there's a way for them to both lose. Yup.
Surprised it didn't end in a tie!
The NY Jets, the only thing funnier from that town than Seinfeld. 😆
Eric Thomas #22, the bengals cornerback burned in ‘87 by Jerry Rice, was on this Jets team
Sam Wysche was a decent head coach -- not a great or brilliant one, though. He was the kind of coach that, if you were the owner of a struggling franchise perpetually in the basement of their respective conference, you would hire to make your team competitive and not just constantly in rebuilding mode. He was capable of bringing teams he coached deep into the playoffs and even the Super Bowl, but he also had a tendency to make boneheaded, temple-scratching play calls at critical moments in games like this one being dissected here -- a trait which kept him from being a great coach.
You’d figure that assistant Pete Carroll would have known the rules….
If you didnt look closely or know Norman or football in general, some would think Boomer was playing against himself 🤣🤣🤣
I was expecting you to say that they didn’t have a timeout and did a Chris Webber
Just

12:28 what the world does with the Jets for 5 + Decades
Pete Carroll was jets defensive coordinator and head coach 2 years later
Ngl, I thought the Jets would somehow lose
pete Carroll in the background is priceless
The Jets Jets-ing as only the Jets can Jets.
3:31 Love the guy flipping off the camera
Not as memorable as the guy flipping the bird at a Saints game. 😆
You have a YEAR'S worth of material on Bruce Koslett/Elton John alone!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
First off, "a game cannot end on a penalty" is a RIDICULOUS generalization. Fouls committed by the offense never extend the period, and there is no provision for an untimed free kick after a safety. (And you should have been well aware of this, thanks to that oft-repeated clip of John Harbaugh's Ravens taking a safety to end the game against the Bengals in 2016.)
Second, this isn't even a foul in the first place, as it's perfectly legal to lateral out of your own end zone for a safety.
There IS a provision for an untimed kick after a penalty. If the last play of a half is a safety caused by a penalty, a safety-kick must take place. In this case that provision doesn't apply because there was 1 second left on the clock. You are correct, however, that in 1993 the clock started on the kick rather than the touch of the ball after the kick. Up by 5 after the safety nullified the risk of a faircatch-kick field goal attempt. So punting it as high as possible and only slightly more than 10 yards to ensure there was no return room would have been the correct play.
JG9, I sincerely like your videos a lot and have probably watched at least 50 by now but if I could ask just one thing it'd be to not spend so much time repeating things that are fairly obvious to the average viewer. Your videos are insanely well researched and extremely interesting. It's just that it feels like your average video could convey the same amount of information in like 1/2 to 2/3 of the run times you usually end up at. If longer run times are a necessary evil for you to get the algorithm rub or ad revenue then forget I said anything. I fully understand if it's something you do against your will in order to help the channel grow and work toward making this thing your full time gig if you're still working your day job. Either way, thanks for making very satisfying content. I do sincerely appreciate it.
My only theory is Coslet was playing dumb with the kicking tee and the dramatic arguing and subsequent timeout. He probably gave the Jets players almost 10 minutes to calm down and collect their breath and be focused for the free kick stop. But it's Coslet, so he may have been this dumb.
One of these terrible decisions is going to make JG9 snap.
Enough to know his middle name?
Due to the "Heidi Rule" untold thousands of Bengals had the false hope for a miracle. Those watching at home had to endure a few more minutes of "great" play.
The laughing is great. It would have been great if Cincy would have won it. Great vid
I remember Coslet flipped someone off in a game against the Steelers
I remember this incident, this team lost their final 3 games that season after controlling their own destiny at 8-5. Being a Jets fan from 1983-1994 & 1997-2008, I'm glad I jumped off the bandwagon.
The 1993 New York Jets last 3 losses of the season were against three of the top teams Bills, Cowboys and Oilers.
LOL when Kotite was hired you didn't care about them.
@@Nonsense1986 EXACTLY! I boycotted them because Leon Hess decided to fire Pete Carroll who lost his last five games, for a coach who lost his last seven games in Philadelphia. Ironically, Pete Carroll won the Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium 20 years later!
@@michaelmarino7391 dude, respect to you. Fuck RK
@@hezamachine Likewise in '94, losing the last 5 games all to playoff teams. And all kicked off by the Marino fake spike game.
I wonder if JG9's patron Mark Moseley is THE 1987 MVP Mark Moseley 😳
Unconscionable that Coslet didn't know this.
"because trust me, it's as stupid and as ridiculous as it sounds"
That's the kinda disclaimer that'll get you interested!
Video Idea
The shortest super bowl game EVER
Is that a young Pete Carroll seen over Coslet's shoulder in that clip where they're discussing the play with officials?
Yes that is and he will become HC of the Jets several years later.
What assistant coaching position was he doing at this time under Coslet?
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown I believe OC. I could be wrong.
@@daleburrer1546: Either that or Special Teams given that it was a ST play that they were discussing with. the offs.
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown could be.
It's funny you brought up the Bengals gaffe in 87 against the 49ers. When the players went on strike right after that game, all the players got together and ran practice themselves, and the first thing they did was practice the intentional safety while running out the clock. On the bright side, they went to the SB the very next year
Yep, he actually has video of it at the end of the video he did for that one
@@williambryant6175 cool, I'll have to check that out!!
'you was t-erious about that?' leo getz things done.
@@stevenbauer4799 Manolo Ribera strikes again!!
@@leogetz3570 hahaha.
I noticed the Jets were still kicking the free kick from the 20-yard line, the normal spot. My first thought was the officials failed to mark off the penalty. But now that I think about it, I wonder if the reason for the free kick was just because there was still one second left after the safety.
There's no penalty to mark off.
@@bwburke94 Four years later Jets Quarterback Neil O’Donnell took an intentional safety on the last play of their win over the Colts by launching a pass toward his own end zone.
"Are you gonna believe ME, or your lyin' eyes?"
-Coslet
The strangest ending to a Jets game was in the late 1960's. It is still called The Heidi Game because NBC decided to jump from the last minute of the Jets vs Raiders game in Oakland, with the Jets holding a 3 point lead, at 7 PM, to The Wonderful World of Disney, which was playing the childrens' movie Heidi. By the time Jets fans could get to a radio, the Raiders had scored a go ahead td, and then recovered the ensuing kickoff, which was fumbled by the Jets in their end zone, for another td and an 11 point win.
This unofficial Official Jaguar Gator 9 historian will remind everyone you made videos about the following:
1. A Dumb Decision (TM) Coslet made the year before against the 49ers.
2. The Jets season finale that year, in which a draft pick was dependent on how poorly Boomer Esiason did in that game.
You really trademarking DD?
Can I have "stupid selections"?
@@teen_laqueefa Sure. Of course my authority and five bucks will get you a gallon of gas.
I was at the Niners-Bengals game in 1987, it was my 15th birthday and everything was going right until Wyche called that damned sweep...
The jets have a odd history
Video suggestion: In a 1968 game between the new york jets and Buffalo bills, the bills won their only game of the year 37-35, despite scoring just 1 offensive touchdown. The jets were 19 point favorites, and the bills pulled off super bowl 3 before the jets made super bowl 3 happen that year
Namath threw 5 INTs, with three off them being pick sixes. Not unlike the Bucs first ever win, over the Saints in '77.
@@NosferatusCoffin everytime I think of the 68 jets, I don't think of super bowl 3, I think of their loss in buffalo. As a bills fan, I relish it
As a sidenote, Namath also threw five INTs against the Broncos that season, as the Jets lost to a pretty woeful Denver team. That marked the turning point of the season.
@@NosferatusCoffin that game was pretty horrible, especially since he threw no tds. I still think his game against Buffalo was worse, namath threw 4 tds against dan Darragh and still lost, the jets defense played well, namath cost his team, he threw the game, literally
This probably best Sums Bruce Coslet's HC career
Although 1993 was a good year for the Jets(8-8), 1994 started the disaster spell for the Jets, as they went 6-10 in 1994 under Pete Carroll, 3-13 in 1995, and 1-15 in 1996, with the last 2 years being under the incompetent Rich Kotite.
Sam Wyche was good at 1 thing. That play action pass that he made Boomer Esiason learn came from him. Boomer was so good at it he faked out the cameraman on many occasion.
Not the pitchy pitchy woo woo play 😂😂
I was waiting the whole video to hear how the Jets botched something up to allow the Bengals to come back and win the game. At least there’s one dumb decision, or moment of incompetence, that didn’t cost the team a game.
Bill Walsh wrote about this final play (SF-Cin) in his book: "The Score Takes Care of Itself," or was it "Finding the Winning Edge," I can't remember.
Walsh remembers it as a 30-yard pass to Rice when it was 25. It shows how eyewitness testimony is not very reliable.
Bruce Coslet and Rich Kotite. 🙄 Oh my goodness. Jets have been through a lot of dumb 🤬 before Rex Ryan.
Gawd I don’t miss these days of the Bengals
You are right I was thinking the other day that you were hard on Sam Wyche as being one of the worst coaches but that Bengals & 49ers game just solidified that your are correct sir😂💯 I moved to Cincinnati the following year so I didn’t see that game and know that’s how they lost because I just seen the replay of Rice catching the TD but didn’t know the Bengals had the ball in their own territory 🤦🏾♂️
I've watched the NFL since 1988 so I consider myself a pretty average fan but I legitimately had no idea you couldn't use a tee on a free kick until now. I just thought coaches liked punting for better hang time to prevent a long return.
Bruce Coslet, a fair to middling player who was a dumpster fire as a coach.
And after this season, the Bengals (having seen 1st hand how inept he is) decided to hire him as an assistant coach.
huh, learbn something knew, when i saw safety kickoffs i never noticed they don't use a tee.
Nobody is going to talk about the fact that they were up by 7 with 8 seconds left and instead of worst case scenario being tied by a miracle play they gave the Bengals the chance to win by giving the safety and kicking off. It worked but still wasn’t thought out well.
11:29 When you put a sentence on the bottom, can it last BEYOND half a second?? Who is able to READ that Fast? With Coslet, he had NO Business being an NFL Coach.
My god the Bengals were awful that year. Also Coslet was a bad coach. Somehow Cincinnati made him their head coach 3 years later
Didn't Coslet become the OC for the Bengals after he got fired from the Jets and that's how he became the Head Coach?
THAT year?!? They were awful for the final nine years of the '90s!
Guys, guys, stop.....I have finally been able to hold my head high these last couple years and JG9 out here triggering my PTSD
And, for the record .....Sam was never viewed as Lombardi , but he was well liked by players and fans and had a good couple years with the team before returning to laughingstock island
I thought the game couldn’t end only on a defensive penalty.
Looks like there actually was a second left on the clock from the clip. A penalty gives an untimed play. It doesn't actually put a second back on the clock.
Only things like this happens to gang green.
Todd Christensen was hilarious
So you blamed Wyche... but then said that Coslet was the OC calling the plays and didn't want to repeat it? What?
Exactly
Clearly one of the most embarrassing moments in Jets history. He got fired at the end of the season but it might as well have been the morning after the game if we somehow lost to those winless Bengals!
I actually like these Jets retro and modern mix uniforms.
I know Coslet was the HC, but that honestly might be the kicker or ST coordinators fault. We really don't know.
11:01 A safety kick is a free kick -- it cannot be blocked.
I think all NFL teams who are trying to tank for that top draft pick should watch this video.
Bruce Coslet was a terrible coach. The reason the Jets were competitive was because Pete Carroll, their defensive coordinator, did a brilliant job with that defense. If the Jets had any offense, then they would competed for the AFC Championship!
Jets were apparently doing a throwback week? Don't remember these helmets. Also don't remember really seeing throwbacks before the 75th anniversary in '94
I think the 93 jets were the first football team to ever do a throwback. It wasn’t even a true throwback because they kept the green helmets instead of white
Listen, the Bengals. I don't mean to pile on here- I mean, you're already the Bengals- but Sam Wyche was not a super great head coach. Career losing record aside, look at my man's coaching tree. Aside from Dick LeBeau, who was great *despite* Wyche, not because of him, the tree includes such legendary names as David Shula, the perfectly-named Mike Mularkey, and of course our intrepid hero in this tale, Bruce Coslet. His coach-children have *literally* lost twice as many games as they won. He didn't just stink, he taught a new generation of coaches how to stink too.
He got me laughing.
That's why the Jets HC Bruce Coslet got fired as one of the worst HC in NFL history.... Jagoff didn't know the rules.......
did anyone else recognize that Pete Carroll was on Coslet's coaching staff in the video?
12:45 look at Ronnie Lott ROFL " EYE ROLLING "
12:28 😂; 12:43 Poor Ronnie Lott.
I thought Nathaniel Hackett was the only NFL Head Coach who has a video made about them that can find a way to lose a game which they actually won!
Bruce Coslet is what Rex Ryan was without the winning he help destroyed the Jets in the 90s
He should of used a spare cleat to hold the ball as opposed to a tee then he could at least try to argue that its not a tee
Even this gaffe by Coslet wasn’t as bad as this one by him the previous year: ua-cam.com/video/HrKVaxF609M/v-deo.html
Sam was a decent coach, just a better person than he was a coach, I will always respect the guy, he will always be a Bengal legend
J-e-t-s let's go
I see Pete Carroll with Bruce Coslet.
strange and the ny jets go together like peanut butter with jelly
There should have been a 15 yard penalty on that "TEE" play. IDK why the referee didn't drop a flag. Any other time hey would have. BTW, where is Bruce Coslet these days ??
Coslett also guaranteed a victory. I think this is the game.
He very well might be the worst coach in history.
I’m sorry you’re a jags fan, I had to subscribe😢 kidding of course!
the bengals had sam wyche and buce coslett on the same staff? LOL bruh pls tell me next that rich kottite was their defensive coordinator
Pete Carroll looking young
As a lifelong Steelers fan I agree
Sam Wyche was overrated
What's up with the helmets this game?
The Jets wore special helmets to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their Super Bowl win.
Wanna know why no matter how bad the Giants are, they'll still be number one by a wide margin in the Tri-state area? TA-DAAAA!!!
I am from Cincinnati and was watching that game and was thinking WTF are you doing. Sam Wayche was not a good coach.
Coslett was the terrible OC, for the Bengals and then years later was the HC for the NYJ. So in fact BRUCE "candle in the wind" looking ass was the Dumb Decider, however Sam keeps taking flak
11:15 (ish) Pete the Poodle 🐩 😄
