New York Jets vs. New England Patriots History
The rivalry between the Patriots and the Jets, especially since 2000, has been a tale of two polar opposites. The Jets won their first and only Super Bowl in 1968, Super Bowl III, behind the stellar play of Hall-of-Fame quarterback Joe Namath. Since then, they’ve been on a rocky road to try to reclaim that success, only winning two AFC East Championships entering 2023 (1998 and 2002).
Meanwhile, the Patriots have been in nine Super Bowls between 2002 and 2023 and have landed six Super Bowl championships. The Patriots have also had a stranglehold over the AFC East, winning the division 17 times between 2000-2023.
There have been a number of contentious moments between the two franchises, notably surrounding head coaches: In 1997, Hall-of-Fame head coach Bill Parcells jumped from New England to New York, which drew the ire of Patriots owner Robert Kraft, but also paved the way for the Patriots to exact their revenge in 2000. When Parcells retired from coaching, his assistant head coach, Bill Belichick, was also out of a job. After initially accepting the Jets Head Coach position, he resigned at a press conference for his hiring and instead took the Patriots job. After litigation with the NFL in federal court over contractual obligations, the Patriots had to formally trade for Belichick.
Where Do the New York Jets and New England Patriots Play?

The New England Patriots have called Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, home since 2002. Located roughly 20 miles south of Boston, Gillette Stadium has a maximum capacity of 65,878 and has also hosted notable events like the NCAA Lacrosse National Championships, the NHL Winter Classic, the MLS Cup and several FIFA Women’s World Cup games.
