Happy Fourth of July!
Before the fireworks go off across the Tri-State area, Jets X-Factor looks back on the most lucrative fourth quarters, in terms of points, in New York Jets history.
T-4. 9/28/08: Cardinal Offense (22 vs. ARI)
Technically speaking, we should be commemorating the best second quarters in Jets history. The Continental Congress, after all, made the vote for independence on July 2, but it was only declared two days later.
Fortunately, the Jets’ 2008 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals gives us ample opportunity to do both. After a scoreless first, the Jets put up a jaw-dropping 34 points on the future NFC champions.
