New York Jets Defeated by the Colts

The Jets have a long history as being a favorite of New Yorkers and they remain steadfast through the years whether their team wins or loses.
Beginning with the 2010 season the Jets will be playing at Meadowlands Stadium. They will be sharing the same stadium with the New York Giants through a specal arrangement and unique scheduling agenda.

The Jets are popular not only with New York residents and people frequently fly or drive in for a game and spend the weekend while they’re at it.
While the Jets lost to the Colts today they have the distinction of being the first AFL team to defeat an NFL team in a National Championship game when the beat the then Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III. This was before the merger of the AFL and NFL. Perhaps the most famous Jet player of all time is Joe Namath, who won the favor and approval of most of the nation during his career. Broadway Joe, as he was affectionately referred to, is largely responsible for putting the Jets in the hearts of football fans outside of New York. It is typical for football lovers to become fans of their home team, or the nearest to them. However, with the Jets, people from across the nation have adopted them as their favorite team. And there are more than New Yorkers out there that regret today’s loss. Of course some of those just wanted to see the Colts get beat, but they still count.
