The Jets–Patriots rivalry is a rivalry between the New York Jets and New England Patriots of the National Football League. The teams both play in the AFC East. They have been in the same division since the two teams' inception in 1960 in the American Football League, and have played each other at least twice a year since then.
Games between the two teams have often played out like the fierce Yankees–Red Sox rivalry in Major League Baseball.
The following is a list of results from all of the meetings between the New York Jets/Titans and Boston/New England Patriots from their first meeting on September 17, 1960 to the present:
In the two clubs' very first meeting, the New York Titans hosted the Boston Patriots at New York's Polo Grounds. Al Dorow of the Titans erupted to three touchdown throws and led the Titans to a 24–7 lead in the third quarter. But Butch Songin and 109 rushing yards by Patriots runners clawed Boston back to trail 24–21 in the fourth quarter, then Chuck Shonta finished off the Titans when punter Rick Sapienza fumbled the snap. The ball bounced around wildly until Chuck Shonta picked up the ball at the 25 and ran in for a touchdown. The Titans complained that linebacker Jack Rudolph had kicked the ball, which was illegal, during the chase for the ball but the play stood.
