when's the last time the jets made the playoffs
History of the New York Jets In the following eleven seasons, New York had limited success, reaching the playoffs only once and enduring a string of disastrous seasons, including a 1–15 record in 1996. The following year, the Jets hired two-time Super Bowl winning coach Bill Parcells. The new coach guided the team to its most successful season since the merger in 1998; the Jets finished 12–4 and reached the AFC Championship Game, in which they fell to the Denver Broncos. The team made five playoff appearances in the 2000s, their most of any decade. In 2009 and 2010, the Jets achieved back-to-back appearances in the AFC Championship Game, losing to the Indianapolis Colts and Pittsburgh Steelers. In 2010, the team began to play in MetLife Stadium, constructed near the now-demolished Giants Stadium.
Jacksonville Jaguars After their week 15 win over the Houston Texans, the Jaguars clinched their first playoff trip since 2007; they finished the season 10-6, a seven-game turnaround from the previous year. The Jaguars defeated the Buffalo Bills 10-3 in Jacksonville, marking the first playoff win in ten years.[76] In the Divisional Round, on January 14, 2018, the Jaguars defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 45-42 in Pittsburgh[77] to advance to their 3rd AFC Championship Game, and their first since 1999. However, they narrowly fell to the New England Patriots 24-20.[78] For the season, the defense earned the nickname "Sacksonville" because of its dominance.
