the other funny thing is the Jets and Giants seem to do well when the other one doesnt,but nooo,nope it just doesnt click at the same time?
either way the City of NY always wins and has a dog in the fight for the fans.
in relation to your thought of Brett and the Jets not making it: it looks like the Jets and KC were given the Christmas bonus for the nfl merger to give the AFC rep but had to sit down and wait ever since then.

You don't know how right you are with this ^
The only time KC was really actually a contender was when Joe Montana was here. We made it to the AFC Championship Game. And haven't truly been relevant since.
The Jets went to the AFC Championship Game a couple times recently too - once again, another 'retiring legend', this time Bill Parcells, gets to take the Jets as far as they're allowed to go. Somehow Rex Ryan rode that defense to a couple Championship game appearances, but he's been exiled to Siberia now...
Point is, neither team has made it beyond the Championship game since the merger. For a reason.
