How the Jets crashed and burned after back-to-back AFC Championship appearances | Collapse

- Опубліковано 22 тра 2019
- It may feel like an alternate universe but there was a time when Rex Ryan, Mark Sanchez and the New York Jets were setting the NFL on fire, in a good way. They reached back-to-back AFC Championship games in their first two seasons together and the future finally looked bright for a franchise built on failure. But just like seeing a waterfall in the desert, it was all a mirage. The Jets crashed and burned while the football world watched, not in amazement, but surprise it hadn’t happened sooner.

I'd like to wish everyone a happy Collapse day. Comment below with what episodes you want to see next and why. The more masochistic the better.
Sir Donald Bradman please. In a non-masochistic setting if possible.
Do one on the Celtics collapse after the 80s
The Josh Hamilton Rangers because that was one of my favorite teams.
The collapse of the Anaheim Angels since 2002
SB Nation Can you guys please do a rewind of Steve Smiths own goal during the 1986 nhl playoffs?
"Geno smith finally found some consistency.......losing 6 straight.." hahaha
The funniest thing I’ve heard in a while!!!
“*I* have a passer rating of zero. Right now.” Holy grapefruits he went for the man’s LIFE
They gave him no talent
Alexander Merritt Try being a Pats fan and laughing. I get to watch TB12 whoop this team twice a year
That shi was crucial 😂😂😂
It's 2023 and Geno is now a sought after QB, leading Seattle to the playoffs. 30 tds 13 ints 4300 plus yards. Incredible and I'm a Hawks fan
Facts, just goes to show that our impatience with QBs nowadays screws over a lot of guys early. And landing spots when you’re young are so crucial to development. If he’d been properly supported and helped with better rosters/coaches, I have little doubt he could’ve been this much earlier on. Glad he’s still able to do it now and prove himself in Seattle
@@FormedVoidhe had a top level o line way better than what he had in Seattle. Geno likes good recievers but is more than happy with a poor o line. Jets didn't give him recievers
He may never start another game.
Imagine telling someone in 2015 that Geno Smith would be one of the better starters in the NFL
I used to follow the nfl closely until around that year (2015) I only casually follow now and when I heard about Geno Smith being a good player for the Seahawks of all teams I was shocked. My first immediate thought was "the guy that got his jaw broke and was kind of a bust" good for him for turning it around and saving his career
He's not.
@@billquantrill4960 he was for one year! Then he regressed
@@soonerfan4321 The one year was obviously a lie.
@@billquantrill4960 appears to be yes
What also helped lead to the collapse was starting safety Jim Leonhard, who was considered the quarterback of the Jets defense from 2009-2011, left in free agency to go play in Denver
I think this guy is a jets fan. Never seen so much sarcasm and passive aggression in any of the videos of his I've watched lol
Sums up us Jets fans pretty well 😂
I listened to the "holy S*** Idzik, how do you F*** up 12 times?!" line several times. As a Pats fan it's my 2nd favorite part of this video, behind the Butt Fumble.
Yes if you'd watched SBnation for a while you'd know Mike is a Jets fan
I know one guy is a Niners fan. This guy is a Jets fan, you're probably right.
@@muhammadfarhan581 The Knicks collapse wasn't narrated by Stephen A Smith.
Those back to back AFC championship game appearances... feels like 50 years ago 🤷♂️🤷♂️
I know that feeling. It feels like my Seahawks won the Superbowl a lifetime ago.
@@ronnickels5193 I'm with ya. The 3 months since the Pats won one feels like a YEAR.
@@bearbrand6626 And I remember that interception like it was yesterday. I've made peace with the Pats but I'm still mad at Wilson not running the ball.
Ron Nickels kudos for not getting triggered by that pats fan who was definitely trying to flex
@@slimischillin7753 I know, right? I was feelin' all saucy, and he didn't bite at all.
To be honest, even I hate us Pats fans half of the time.
And of course, Revis won a Ring with the Patriots.
Because it's just a jetsy thing to do
Super Bowl 51 will always be the worst because of how close it was to being an incredible blowout loss for the Pats, but 49 is the most personally devastating because of Revis being on the roster. I have never rooted so hard for the Seahawks in my life, and I never will again.
@@JVR10893 Well, as we all know, the Seahawks screwed themselves in that game.
And that was the best part! My Patriots do what the Jokes can NEVER do, win! Thank God and seeing NY miserable warms my heart!
@@Jondsmusic howd last season work out for you? Or the fact that most of your fanbase now has "2 teams" since your blow boy QB went down to Tampa, flipping the bird to the cocksboro faithful on his way out?
I wanted this one so bad. '09-'11 Jets had so much potential.
I used to follow Mark Sanchez and Pete Carroll in their USC days. Loved how they both got drafted the same year. Started following the Jets and Seahawks because of them. Pete Carroll had said Mark Sanchez wasn't ready to join the NFL. He was right, but the guy was pretty good
Definitely agree. Same situation. Loved them both
After the butt fumble it was never the same.
Fun fact - those two Jets draft picks in the 4th round of the 2014 draft actually became solid CFL receivers lol
Kids: Now we know!
Mark Liu: And knowing is half the battle!! G I Mark Liu!!
Lol
Mark Liu CFL
Mark Liu they should put idzik in the cfl Hall of fame
As a Riders fan, I like me some Shaq Evans.
For some reason, I was happy to hear a Fireman Ed reference in this video.
90s Sports Nostalgia they should have done the thing where firreman ed was in the picture with the whole team, then blacked him out when he left 😂
@@Then9002 repost your comment on it's own and it just might happen, I'd like to see that too
@@Then9002 lmao 😭😭😭 and finally Fireman Ed was done with Gang Green antics as well *face fades off screen 😭😂
“A corner touchdown throw to Santionio Holmes” where have i heard that before?
And now Cardinals fans are upset
The butt fumble is one of my favourite nfl moments of all time
it is the greatest moment in human history
Actually,seeing Bernard Pollard compeltrly destroy New Englands running back by knocking him unconscious tied with him taking out bradys knee was the funniest moments in professional football.
As a Jets fan, this is already painful to watch
Nicholas not as painful as a chargers fan watching you guys beat us after a 14-2 season
jerry cruz we have a shot on paper but man it was good getting to the playoffs. Was this the last time they’ve been to the playoffs?
jerry cruz why are you commenting then? Jw
jerry cruz your qb isn’t even with you guys anymore . I’m so lost on your point ? Why are you flexing on the chargers and jets ?
@@aaronfaith6336 Typical eagle fan, took 60 years to win a chip (aided by the opposing coach benching his best corner minutes before the start of the game.) and wont ever shut up about it lol
This has easily become one of my favorite series you do
150th liker
I still bleed green‼I've been a Jets fan since I sat on my fathers lap watch Joe guarantee a super bowl. Them 2 teams of Rex was the most excitement I ever had as a fan. EVER
A collapse on a franchise that didn't win a damn thing?! Only the jets!
That's sad. Of course I was a pats fan now bucs fan go Tom. Ok sorry hope the jets get better they will
This is pretty awful. Saints got robbed in 3 of the last 5 playoffs. But man, the Jets? I feel really bad for you guys. God luck.
@@jlui21 the Saints only got robbed against the Rams. Other than that, screw New Orleans.
Let's hope Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh change our fortunes. It's bound to happen sometime, right?
Rex brought brass and confidence when he got hired and he made the AFC East more enjoyable to watch the first two years. And I don’t care what anyone says, Hard Knocks 2010 was the best one EVER.
You put me To Shame For Not Watching the 2010 Hard Knocks Training Camp
It was insane that the jets beat the Patriots at Foxborough
It was a young defense in their first year. They chocked it away.
The refs also over inflated the ball because the NFL is New York based and hate the Patriots.
@@Herv3 shut up they simply outplayed the pats simple as that
That Jets team was pretty damn good.
Only Boston fans would keep complaining after six Super Bowls
Biggest problem I think these Jets teams have is that they built their whole season about just wanting to beat the Pats. Rex Ryan had this huge unhealthy obsession with beating Belichick and hey I'm a Patriots fan I'll say the Jets beat us fair and square it's gonna be dumb arguing back and forth about "oh the Pats cheated" or "the league is against the Pats". While they shined they also shot themselves just wanting to beat the Patriots instead of focusing on the whole year. If they beat Peyton Manning and Tom Brady I wouldn't see it as a conspiracy, it's just the game of football. I still remember Rex Ryan saying "I'll pay someone to kick Belichick in the nuts" or something along those lines, if that isn't unhealthy obsession idk what is.
"Geno began some consistancy...losing 6 of the next 7 games 😂😂😂"
Jack Freni lmao that had me cracking up
I lost it when he did this 😂🤣
2 AFC title game appearances and didn't have a single home playoff game both years.
@Harry Engel they would have beaten the Falcons in 1998
@Harry Engel The Jets r always in the wrong place at the wrong time. In 1982, Don Shula purposely left the field uncovered giving his Dullfins an unfair advantage. In 1998, the Jets had to play in Denver which had won the year before and was to be Elway's last season. Against the Colts they forgot to show up in the second half. Next year against the Steelers they forget to show up in the first half. You'd think they would have learned something about what it takes to win a championship game and JUST GET IT DONE!
@Harry Engel They definitely would have beaten the Falcons had they won against Denver.
@Fries they hosted the Jaguars in the Divisional round before going to Mile High.
This is a fun watch while Geno is having a resurgence in Seattle.
As a die-hard Jets fan this was tough. so close to greatness and then total collapse.
A collapse on a franchise that didn't win a damn thing?! Only the jets!
TYMBO11 They won the Super Bowl with Joe Namath, which was 5 Decades Ago
The Mariners. Like 2 episodes ago.
Eye Conqueror Of course them, what’s next, the Joe Maddon Rays
True
@Beau Lijah please I want that
The backbone was Eric Mangini's drafts as that faded so did Rex.
As a Jets fan, it hurt to sit through this. Also as a Jets fan, I will cheer for them, until my casket dips.
"I have a passer rating of 0. Right now."
Pure gold
The really funny part is, if every pass you throw is incomplete - or you simply don't throw any passes - you wind up with a passer rating of 39.6.
To achieve a 0 passer rating you have to actively work against your team - in other words, INTs.
That Mike Tirico call made me laugh out loud. UGLY!
Idc what no one says Rex is still one of our best coaches ever . After rex we havent even seen the damn playoffs let alone AfC championship . Salute Rex you still get love and respect for me
You should have went deeper into that Jets/Giants game in 2011. Rex had bragged about how the Jets went to back-to-back AFC title games whole the Giants went nowhere, but on that day Eli Manning and company crushed the Jets, and as a result the Jets were bounced and forced to watch from home as the Giants went on to win the Super Bowl, bringing another Vince Lombardi trophy to the Big Apple.
Plus is it a coincidence that the Jets acquired Tim Tebow just months after the Giants' victory parade? I feel they did because they desperately wanted to divert attention away from the Giants with the buzz of having Tebow on their roster despite never using him. And they destroyed Sanchez' career in the process.
All because Rex Ryan couldn't back up what he said about not being the Giants' little brother.
this just reminded me of the fact the Chargers choked megahard in the 2009-10 playoffs
They where 13-3 😂 and lost
On what planet does a Pro Bowl kicker miss three field goals, when making at least one of them would have at least forced overtime?
DerJungeMiroslav ahh yes the great Nate keating 😂😂
Like they do every playoffs.
@@WakkoKakko Rex must have used one of those Madden 05 era cheat codes XD
Keep the NY trend going and do the Knicks after 1999
Liam McCaul First the Nets, then Giants and now Jets!😂😂😂
Since 1999 the supersonics still have more wins in the playoffs than the Knicks
Versacetowel Series or games wise?
TEAM CLASSIC SONIC Games 💀💀💀
Or after 2013
omg. as a jet fan, that little eulogy there at the end strikes the deepest part of my soul.. great video
As a jets fan, this episode explains everything I wanted to forget. Great video 💙
Do the 49ers after jim harbough left
Omar Abuseif
They deserved what they got after forcing out the man who made them successful.
It goes further back to when Debartolo had to hand over the team to the Yorks. Other than the end of the Mariucci years and the Harbaugh years, the team we knew in the 80's & 90's is looooonnnnng gone, might as well be a different franchise entirely. Sad emoji
This is a great suggestion.
bob ross 😞😞😞
This needs to happen big time
How could you talk about this Jets team without playing Bart Scott's "Can't wait" clip? It is the greatest post-game interview ever.
Christopher Harris Ikr
Agreed
He was too busy writing those sarcastic 1 liners..
Can the Jets stop stealing the Ravens linebackers?
Thaaankkks
I remember when ESPN acted like Sanchez was really good and kept calling him "Sanchise" lmfao
Justin Pettit he was good his first 3 years the only QB to beat Brady , manning and rivers
All ESPN does is cater to the big markets!! 💯💯💯
At the time he looked pretty good.All things considered
Sushi Sandwiches hating a** fool
@Sushi Sandwiches You underestimate the Jets’ ability to choke
If I may make a suggestion for a future episode of “Collapse.” I think the 2007 New York Mets blowing a 7 game lead in the NL East in September is worthy of a closer look.
as a phillies fan, i agree
Legend has it that Kyle Rivers and Bart Scott are still chasing Victor Cruz till this day.
Nate Murdoch who the hell is Kyle Rivers? Lmao
It's Kyle Wilson...
I like how the line on the graph went up when they were eliminated from playoff contention which shows just how truly bad they were
The collapse of the Bills after going to 4 straight Super Bowls
Still too soon let josh Allen get to the afc championship first and the blow should be lighter
@@drizzyuzumaki8753 well...
Still can't believe the Jets actually beat the Patriots in a playoff game. Its like Mike Tyson getting knocked out by Peter Dinklage.
Kevin Hart*
…or Buster Douglas?
Harry Engel he’s a dwarf.
Peter Dinklage is the true Little Mac of our times.
@Anthony Klich the Patriots played mistake free football all year long and in that game they turned the ball over early in the game on a screen pass. They gave you guys no shot because you guys had been blown out a few weeks earlier.
The best thing about this was that it got the rivalry so much closer than it had been in years. I loved these games as a Pats fan because of the storyline and the way Rex was. Good times
Shonn Greene looked so promising as a rookie, especially with that 50 yard TD in the playoffs, but never reached his potential
I really thought Greene was going to be a great RB someday. Not sure what happened.
It’s crazy looking back on this and seeing Geno is now a top 10 QB and the Jets are good
Damn shout out to Rex for knowing Odell was gonna be great
The Turtler 31 hmm you must not have watched SEC football
Imagine telling somone today that 9 years ago the Jets were in the playoffs and beat New England, how times sure have changed
Ask anyone who watched football at the turn of the decade and ask “which team do you remember more, the 2009-2010 Colts, the 2010-2011 Steelers, or the 2009-2011 Jets.” Those two Jets teams were so much fun to watch and such a great story and road. They never made their super bowl but I guarantee you that any fan from that time will tell you that those two teams were the most interesting and fun team to watch those two years. Now it’s 10 years later and we haven’t made the playoffs since and we’re about to go 0-16. This collapse could have been the worst of them all....
Yea. I was a young starry-eyed Jets fan in 2010. It’s been rough, very rough.
😭❤️
Why focus on just team sports?
Individual players can have collapses.
Do Tiger Woods
Eddie Lacy
IT HAPPENED
Collapse: Tiger Woods
Premiered today
😎😎😎😎
INTROVERT OMEGA I would like
This didn't age well at all....Tiger won a masters and then was involved in a career ending car accident. Oof
I remember when this happened, I was at my grandparents house with my cousins when the Jets won against the patriots, I’m a giants fan though but still fun to see New York win
In 2009 the Jets had a pro-bowl stacked offensive line and a very productive Thomas Jones. By 2011 they had a fraction of that.
Instead of getting another weapon for Sanchez to throw the ball to we traded for Tim Tebow 🤦🏾♂️
That was mystifying. WHO gives up draft picks for Tim Tebow!?!
@Poppa Jacks Was Tannenbaum the GM at that time?
Wouldn't have mattered, sanchez's accuracy was terrible. He would have just missed whatever weapon they got lmao
@@Drummafolife If it makes you feel any better, Tebow wasn't much better than Sanchez, either. Tebow was nothing more than a bible-thumping media circus.
I’m a Jets fan it hurts🥺
Sanchez had a few weaknesses that finally got exposed. They knew which part of the field to take away and knew how to rush him. It forced him to make throws he couldn't do very well.
He was forced to actually elevate his quarterbacking and the Jets had started dumbing down the offense in Sanchez’s second season
I'll turn 17 in the middle of the 2020 NFL Season, which means I barely remember the last time we made the playoffs. All I remember were the Playoffs itself but just barely. And I did cry after we lost that AFC Title game. Since then, it's been promise and collapse. First the Sanchize went down... then Geno came in and went 8-8, just for that to immediately collapse. Then Fitzpatrick brought us to 10-6, we barely missed the playoffs in my most heartbreaking moment I have ever had. Then we argued with Fitz over a contract all offseason, overpaid him then collapse. Now we have the Samchize. Darnold works the pocket like a genius, but he needs an O-Line. We can turn him into a superstar. We will get our moment.
For a 3/4 year span Patriots vs Jets was must watch football 🏈
"they did the only reasonable thing... Trade for tim tebow" Jajajajajajajajajajaja
Talk about the collapse of the Orlando Magic after they went to the finals in the 90s
Michael Hemmerle it what happens when mj comes back
Shaq left. The end
Basketball isn’t a man’s game, you mook..
Before watching, I remember the teams Rex Ryan had for the jets before that infamous "Butt Fumble Game" the season after. I remember both of these seasons. Think about it? They beat Manning, Brady, and almost Rothlisburger. Those names are like the Mount Rushmore of QBs.
I remember I went to that Giants-Jets game in 2011. That was the game that made me a Giants Fan!!
Gino Smith definitely redeemed himself he got the seahawks to the playoffs and had his best season ever as a pro
Redskins after 1991
49ers after 1994
Cowboys after 1995
Phillies after 2008/09
Lakers after 2010
💯
Niners after 2012 as well. Bad coaching hires plagued the team. Tomsula, Kelly, and now Shanahan.
@Quibol0 He is a bad coach, but I mentioned him primarily because he came after Chip Kelly, who came after Jim Tomsula, who came after Harbaugh! Also he blew a 28-3 lead and the 49ers hired him anyway!
@Jake Shattuck 😂😂
@Quibol0 we literally have no idea if Shanahan is a good coach or a bad coach yet. He's coached one team for one season and didn't have his starting QB or RB for any of it. Oh and they were the 29th healthiest team in the league last year according to football outsiders
" fireman ed retired In the middle of the game " ...lol 😂😂😂
A couple of ideas for collapse:
The Colin Kapernick- Jim Harbaugh 49ers 2011-2014
The Detroit Tigers 2006-2015
Urinating tree just made a video about tigers modern era of collapse
90’s Bills to their 17 year playoff drought. Do it.
this just reminded me of the fact the Chargers choked megahard in the 2009-10 playoffs
No Kelly
Loved this team. Had some great talent and great personalities. Best Hard Knocks hands down.
😂😂😂
I love this guy! The paper throw and passer rating joke were gold!
keep the videos coming .... please now more than ever...thank you all! NYC Teacher here... be safe everyone...
How the Phoenix Suns collapsed after making it to the conference finals in the 2009-10 season
Amare left, and everyone else was old. They had a normal life cycle for a contender and their window closed. Don't get me wrong, I'd 100% watch this video, but I think there are better candidates.
When Kobe eliminated them in 6 games in the 2010 WCF that was the last NBA Playoffs series involving the Suns to date!
@@joshwonkim0895 ......Until this year's NBA finals
Do a series like this but you do like “the rise”.
Failure is more marketable in the UA-cam world.
@Harry Engel because people find it easier to hate than show love
That would be interesting as well.
The Process might be a better title
"The Rise" of the Steel Curtain Steelers of the 1970s
This is your best video so far, including all the other wonderful series... I loved the jokes, the passive-aggressiveness and all the bits from the narrator. You should make it an habit to narrate your videos with this method!
Coming back to this today, because today it all changes for us. Please.
Hahahahahaha
Ah, the Collapse episode I've been dreading, lovely.
I forgot about Michael Vick on the Jets. I'm surprised there was no mention of Victor Cruz' breakout against them or the Giants beating Brady in SB 46.
this make me sad as hell. thanks for a trip down memory lane SB!
Great work!
I new this was coming but I still wasn't ready. Thanksgiving still hurts.
I know I am late on this but as a jets fan this was so painful
nice video dude!!
you should do one for every team!!
thumbs up!!!
KEEP THESE NFL COLLAPSE VIDEOS COMING! Excellent work!
Words I never thought I would hear
“A game winning field goal by Nick Folk”
How did you not play the Bart Scott interview 😭 “CANT WAIT”
the thing i love in all these vids are that the "building" part stops at around 1/4 of the vid, then the rest is the "collapse"
Damnit Imhoff you are one of the best comedian/sportswriters.
A rewind of the Jets-Pats game would be great.
Do a Collapse on the Dolphins post Marino with there QB struggle
I mean it's kinda hard to call that a collapse when they hadn't been to a super in like 15 years before Marino left
We never enough won with Marino, kind of hard to call it a collapse
@@TheDude4077 Yeah Marino also lost his last 3 playoff games and failed to make it out of the 2nd round. Scoring a combined 13 points in those 3 games lol
Glad things worked out for Smith
This is a pretty good video by the way. It’s very well put together & depending on the viewers love or hate of the franchise...laugh or cry.
Early 2010's was a great time for almost great New York Football
"So, if you can't draft, can't play, and can't care, why are we talking about you? Oh, that's right! The butt fumble. A play devised by the football gods with the perfect elements of comedy."
--UrinatingTree
That IK Enemkpali punch to Geno was actually pretty good for the Jets, cause it opened the gates for Ryan Fitzmagic do what he does best... play well for the whole season and choke in the last game, but still is the best Jets season of the last 5 years.
I love these videos when it’s so bad for the team you think it’s near the end and the episode is only half way over.
I’mma ask for the Senators until you guys do them fyi. Great stuff as usual though :)
u should do the kansas city royals bc they lost everyone from the 2015 winning squad
I love these for some reason
Bring Collapse back!!!!!
Here's suggestions bills, raiders, broncos( post elway and manning eras), redskins, bengals, bears, 49ers, lions, titans, jaguars, dolphins, knicks, suns, lakers, mavericks, hawks, magic, timberwolves, hornets (including the bobcats)
The broncos have been bad for 2 seasons... that isn’t the same as the raiders being awful for the last 17 years
Redskins? Ok, once upon a time, Joe Gibbs retired, Norv Turner came on board from the Cowboys to sabotage, and then Bill Gates wannabe Dan Snyder happened
@Pumpin George guess you got nothing to say huh
Every Thursday i look forward to this. Still waiting on my Packers collapse after winning SB 45 in 2010 and how coaching and Front Office failed to build around Rodgers
Some of it Rodgers fault
@@ChannelyChannel Not really.
Making the playoffs 5 consecutive times isn't exactly collapsing.
@@thomasjohnson1563 It is when you're blown out
@Shane Pigg That made no sense. English please.
Only giants fan in a Jets house, and man that rollercoaster was tough to watch my family ride. But also sweet when the Giants made it all the way in ‘11! Rex Ryan’s personality was a great spark for that team but it also put them in some figurative holes when it didn’t pan out.
These are the best sports history vids there are
