Eagletotravel101 I disagree. The Packers beat the Jets 6-0 that season, and the refs were obviously giving the game away. Not making excuses, look up “Packers Jets 2010” it’s actually crazy.
We haven’t made the playoffs since then. We should’ve made it in 2012-13 and 2015-16, but we should’ve made the AFC Championship game in Baltimore in January of 2013.
@@GIRLSMAKE12334 You mean 98 and in the end that game wasn't close, Denver won 27-10. This game the Jets were possibly a possession away from the Super Bowl
36:48 I remember watching this live and being so upset that the Jets coaching headsets all of a sudden stopped working at the most critical juncture of the game...
Mark Sanchez did all he could to dig back and you guys lost to my colts the year prior & beat us in the wildcard game. I believe if they got the ball back they play in superbowl 45
41:55 - Preview of the buttfumble that would define the career of Mark Sanchez. But, my goodness did he play well in the playoffs. The Jets totally mismanaged him.
I was just watching this and read your reply...and I agree..mark was mismanaged . His best threat is that playaction pass.. but it seemed they tried to make him something else that he really wasn't. But lets not forget he went to 2 playoff games in a row on the road was his time to shine..in his rookie years ! He almost had it.
It's always pissed me off how that bullshits been labeled as his signature moment when there was so much more to his career. Say what you want, that man led his team to two straight AFC championship games in his FIRST two seasons and had to get through freaking Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. He had so much heart and flashes of brilliance too. All he needed was some weapons, which he did fine with and underperformed like any Qb would when they were taken away. Then was crucified to end despite being nothing but a class act all the way. Mark deserved better
@@steveg4356 Honestly watched this because I was curious to see if Sanchez was as bad as I remembered and came out impressed, dude wasn’t elite or anything, but he’d be a perfect fit for the Shanny style offenses a lot of teams are running these days (ironically even the Jets are gonna have that system now with LaFleur).
53:40 I think about this play SO MUCH. The closest the Jets have ever been to a Super Bowl, since 1968. I stg if we got this stop on 3rd Down, Sanchez would’ve led us to the win. He was clutch ALL SEASON in 2010. I’m pretty used to Jets heartbreak by now, but this was my very first experience with true Jets disappointment.
I was in rehab in upstate NY watching this game with some die hard Jets fans. One dude was so upset he smacked the side of the flat screen so damn hard it broke the screen. He was discharged the next morning.
Especially after the Roethlisberger safety, Y'all cut the lead to 24-12 with more than enough time to push it. I'm a Bronx native an I was pulling for the Jets hard this game like I was a fan. Too many people was pushing the Bears/Packers vs Steelers an was counting the Jets out all week leading up to the game. The Jets messed up by not giving Rex Ryan whatever he asked, yes whatever he asked. 2 AFC Championship Games back-to-back an you knock off Manning & Brady in that span? That coaching an energy he gives to the locker room you can't replace an of course NFL front offices don't know this or even care. Rex Ryan should still be coaching the Jets the 2010s would've been better to that franchise an not horrible as it became. Let hope with the big names they have now that Zach Wilson is the answer. Salute 💯
I remember watching this game I thought we were gonna do it and make the comeback. But it wasn't so. Jets had a good season that year. Won great games and beat peyton and Brady in the playoffs. I thought Ben was next...but it didn't happen that way.
In 2004 against the very same steelers I felt what you felt with this game. With Doug brien failing the jets when the jets put themselves in a position to win not once but TWICE and the guy flops. This game, after the steelers jumped off to a big lead I thought the jets were doomed.
This game was really the tale of two halves. This kinda reminds of the 2015 Mets who had chances of winning the World series against the royals but blew chances
The injury to Pouncey totally screwed the Steelers for the Super Bowl. Yes, I know Charles Woodson was lost for the Pack during the game too, however, the Steelers also lost Emanuel Sanders during the game who had a good year. Also, the Pack's strength was their offensive passing attack and Rodgers had all his weapons. Losing Pouncey changed the dynamic of the Steelers running schemes and protection for Ben up the middle. Hence, the pick 6 he threw in the SB never happens if Pouncey is there to protect him when his arm got hit. He had Wallace with a step on the corner and it was going to be a 99 yd TD pass. As well, Pouncey allows the Steelers to commit to running the ball more in the SB, therefore keeping Rodgers off the field longer.
Rodgers did *not* have all his weapons. Donald Driver was injured. Also besides Charles Woodson there was another injured defensive back. That was a banged up Packers team that won that Super Bowl.
@Bob31415 Driver played. But regardless the Steelers screwed themselves because GB was in low 20s vs the rush but top 5 vs the pass, and Steelers got back in game running then threw 4 straight times at GBs 35 down only 21-17, all incomplete. Sure later Mendenhall fumbled when moving in again, but should have been running from start
@Bob31415 Fair enough. My point is The Steelers had a dumb game plan. When Ben balled out in the Rodgers shoot-out of 09, he had Santonio Holmes to go with Hines Ward and Mike Wallace.
This is a good lesson to every player out there 53:50. If the linebacker stayed in his zone and waited a little to see if Ben was gonna come forward instead he left it at first site . Teaches us passion and IQ wins games.
It's amazing it seemed like the Jets had burnout in 1st half from beating Peyton Manning & Tom Brady in back to back weeks.. Steelers where reeling in 2nd half just trying to hold on..I think added 5 minutes more to the game & Jets win.
41:07 It sucks that a lot of people will remember Sanchez for the butt fumble...but this season he a lot of crazy moments like this....heads up play to avoid the sack with the ball in your non-throwing hand...reset and throw for a big completion. He also had a lot of great escapes in the Browns game earlier that year, and the texans game the week after. Peak Sanchise.
looking back this was a super one sided game in terms of officiating. 2 more minutes and the jets would have won the game too. crazy how underrated that team was.
Great comeback attempt, terrible time management though, I would always save my timeouts until after the two minute warning. Take your chances with the clock on offense if you get the ball back
Ice J exactly, they would burn the clock up to the two minute warning and then after. When you save your 3 timeouts for this, then you can spend them when they try to burn the clock. If your defense is good enough, you won’t allow the first down and get the ball back with about 1:45-1:50 left. You won’t have any timeouts, but you at least give yourself a chance on offense. If you burn your timeouts before the two minute warning and they end up getting the first down, you put all your eggs in one basket and have nothing to stop the clock after the two minutes. Either way it’s all based on your defense, so it’s 50/50 tbh
39:46 Pouncey getting hurt killed us in the SB as much as people want to say its Ben Fault why we lost ill say no Pouncey Mendenhall fumble and Defense being old then ill say Ben.
Its crazy that in both playoff games the Ravens and Jets Brown had clutch ending plays..... Then sanders gets hurt in the Superbowl you would think brown would make a impact with his opportunity u got Wallace Wards Randel El and Rookie Brown. But Randel El made the most of his opportunity... Brown was 2 yrs to late.....
Great game, both teams fought hard, refs fought hard for the Steelers. Too bad my Jets didn't come out with the victory. God bless Arron Rodgers for crushing them on the biggest stage of them all. I was at this game and every time the fans waved their dirty yellow towels the whole stadium smelled like rancid sweat...
I don’t know about sweat. Probably just the tears rolling down your face when you realized the Jets were going to lose. Oh, and when’s the last time the Jets made the playoffs? Oh well, maybe you’ll get there next year. Probably not though ;)
Feel like the jets were coming off such an emotionally triumphant win the week earlier that it took them to get punched in the mouth in the first half to wake up
It was an amazing game to be at for myself and my late father,but not 🚫 even in the same vicinity as the 09 AFC championship game (08 season) when Troy Polomalu had the pick 6 against Joe Flacco and the Ravens that sent us to Tampa FL Raymond James stadium in our journey to win our 6th Sticky Lombardi trophy!!!!??? You had a be there!!!! ONE of my favorite memories of my lifetime that I'll take to my grave, being with my late father Nick who passed away from cancer sadly in August 2021. We were blessed to seeing it Live!!!! Unreal. AND the Bridgestone halftime show with Mr Bruce Springsteen was certainly a bonus!!!! Looking straight down 👇 in the pirate 🦜 ship end zone when Santonio caught THAT pass to cap off the victory!!!!!?? Saw it and still can't believe it!!!!!!!!
You can say anything you want! Tomlin played not to lose in the 2nd half, and it almost cost the game. Tomlin didn't have his team prepared for Superbowl XLV, that's why they lost! Losing Pouncey hurt, but a good coach overcomes the loss of great players. Noll lost Jack Ham for the playoffs and still won the Superbowl! Tomlin sucks as HC.
@@hmhm856 That catch was when everyone knew AB was gonna be SPECIAL. The helmet catch was pretty great, but to make a clutch reception like that on a poor throw, as a ROOKIE, was something else. It's just too bad Burfict made him go cuckoo.
THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE STEELERS STRIKE AGAIN. I am so sick of people ignoring the fact that the Steelers reached three Super Bowls basically only because they avoided New England all three times. That literally means the Steelers were never actually the best team that year, just that other teams did their dirty work. Their 2005 run was still tough (although, Kitna and Plummer, cmon man) but the 2008 and 2010 paths to the big game were JOKES. 8-8 Chargers and a rookie Flacco both at home because Brady was hurt and the 13-3 Titans slipped up? Check. Good-but-not-great Ravens team then the wild card Jets instead of going on the road to play the 14-2 Patriots who beat you 39-26 at home in the regular season? Check. At least the Ravens and Peyton Manning beat the Patriots to win Super Bowls. The Jets were basically victims of their own success - by taking out Brady and Manning they made it easy for the Steelers. Thankfully, the Packers showed them who was boss in Super Bowl XLV.
That's pretty much it. The Patriots knocked out the Steelers three times on their road to Superbowl victories and the Steelers avoided the Patriots all 3 times they went to the Superbowl....although to be fair the Steelers would have beaten them in 2008 without Brady. 2005 would have been a crapshot because the Patriots were missing too many guys but the game would have been in Foxborro. Patriots hung 39 points on Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh in 2010 and it's doubtful they would have played better in a rematch.
@@KHayes666 Yes, precisely. The Pats were less than a year removed from a perfect regular season in 2008 and if Brady stayed healthy it's hard to imagine anyone would have beaten them that year -- especially the Steelers. Even if Pittsburgh had beaten NE without Brady, it would have been an asterisk. 2005 would have been interesting because that was a bit of a flawed Patriots team, but they dominated the Jaguars at home in the wild card round and remember the Pats had already beaten the Steelers in Pittsburgh in Week 3 that year. 2010 there's little doubt the Patriots would have taken that one. When the Jets beat them in Foxborough, they were literally doing backflips on the field, which proved that the Jets had just played their Super Bowl and had nothing in the tank for Pittsburgh the next week.
@@Utuubuploader2012 Two things. First is the Pats lost both Matt Light and Rodney Harrison for the season in that Week 3 game in 05 so if the Patriots survived Denver it wouldn't have been easy the following week. Rex Ryan admitted during the week leading up to the AFC Championship game that they hated the Colts & Patriots for their arrogance but had no ill-will toward Tomlin and the Steelers. In essence Rex flat out admitted he took his foot off the gas against the Steelers before the game even started. That's why when Jets fans say he's a great coach I laugh at them.
At the time, it seemed that Jets would continue to have success. ALAS; It's the template for flash in the pan. #1 Defense plus Bad QB = 1 Season wonder; As a bad QB can look good when D allows 14 points a game, is never behind, can hand off 30 times throw 12 passes. But ELITE Defense always regresses. 10+ point leads exposes the Bad QB to INTs and strip sacks. Mitch Trubisky Bears, Bortles' Jags, And Mark Sanchez Jets, Im looking at you 2021 Redskins.
Well, really a 2 season wonder. Jets were in consecutive AFC Championship games in 2009 and 2010 seasons. Close to playoffs only 2x since, losing week 17 in 2011 and 2015 to miss playoffs.
Steelers defense was completely gassed, would have been interesting if Jets D could have gotten off the field and gave the offense one last chance at it.
@@ANTHONY0808able This year was the first sign the Steelers defense was getting old. They held on to their guys WAY too long, and it cost them against Tebow later on.
We had such an awesome run defense back then we only allowed one yard on the ground to the Jets in the entire first half of that AFC Championship such an awesome run defense black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow
@@adamross4295 there's no need to be salty towards the Jets when your team has won 6 rings and the Jets meanwhile haven't been relevant since Joe Namath was taking snaps for them
Might want to go back and listen to what Simms and Nantz were saying, ON THE ALL TIME LIST, a number of QBs own more titles than Big Ben-Montana, Bradshaw, Aikman
I think he was meaning the most among active quarterbacks at the time ,not most in history, because Bradshaw and Montana had the most then at 4 a piece, and brady had 3 then and got lucky that Pete Carroll called a stupid play on 2nd and goal ,and Atlanta thought they had the superbowl won and got to relaxed and gave brady that one also ....Steeler fan since '75 ...
Only if the ✈ play like this the whole 🎮 they could have easily beaten the Steelers I'm not saying they would have won the Superbowl game but I feel they could have won this game if they play well in the first half
Nobody believes that. The Jets had a damn good defense in 2010 and without Randy Moss, the Patriots offense could be stopped if you had the personnel to do it. The Jets did...most teams didn't.
@Eagletotravel101 right and the Pats eviscerated the steelers early that same season. Like you said, the Pats just played like absolute garbage, not at all living up to their 14-2 Brady MVP year. Just made no sense to see them struggle that much.
BS. The Jets beat the Patriots because they had an elite defense and the right personnel to stop Brady. The Steelers didn't have a Revis to eliminate Welker or a Cromartie to negate Deion Branch. Not to mention Brady knows Mike Tomlin's defense better than he does. No way the Steelers come to Foxboro and win
What a moron. Of all videos you could watch you are here. Get over whatever the Steelers did to your team because neither your team is as salty as your ass is.
AGK927 There’s this other option... uhmmm whats it called? Oh yeah! The shut the fuck up and be grateful one. But only people that aren’t dicks can use that, so idk, you might be out of luck...
THERE'S no comparison for Big Ben to Tom Shady!¡!¡!¡¡!!!! Ben NEVER cheated and that's a FACT!!!!!!! PERIOD END OF STORY!!!!!!!!! Tom Shady is the biggest cheater in the history of the NFL HISTORY and that's a FACT 😉👍!!!!¡!

Of all of the years that i have watched the nfl playoffs, this was the most rigged made me pissed off playoffs ever. Saints and colts lose in the wildcard round, falcons and patriots lose in the divisional round, i didn't give a crap about the bears, and two conference title games that never should of happed
