Originally called the New York Titans, they were renamed in 1963. With their win in Super Bowl III over the Baltimore Colts, the franchise holds the distinction of being the first AFL team to beat an NFL team in the AFL-NFL World Championship Game.

Player Joe Namath joined the team in 1965, setting a new standard for football as well as the Jets. By 1968, Namath had taken the team to the heights of their success, as they rose to the top of the AFL and qualified for the first Super Bowl.

The team made television history in the same year when the end of a close game between the Jets and the Raiders was interrupted by the movie "Heidi" just as the Jets had taken a late-scoring lead over the Raiders, at 32-29. There was 1:05 left in the game. Everywhere but the West Coast showed the film which had been promoted extensively for sweeps. Fans were upset about the dramatic finish they missed, as the Raiders ended with a 43-32 victory.
