Head coach Ryan had predicted his team would reach the Superbowl and tonight they inflicted a third straight defeat on their opponents who had had the best record in the NFL.
The Jets led their fierce rival 14-3 at half-time before Tom Brady's two-yard touchdown pass to Alge Crumpler and Sammy Morris' run for a two-point conversion made it 14-11 late in the third quarter.
But Mark Sanchez came right back with a seven-yard scoring pass to Santonio Holmes and New York finished the upset with Shonn Greene's 16-yard touchdown run.
