The Jets could be first NFL defense ever to not have a single interception.

The Jets have allowed 32 passing TDs without a single pick in 16 games.
With just one game left, the Jets have only Josh Allen between them and NFL history.
The QBs the Jets have faced in their 16 games so far have thrown 143 INTs on the year so it isn't like they are facing guys who don't turn it over.
The record for least interceptions by a team in a season is 2 set by the 49ers in 2018. That 9ers team also has the record for fewest takeaways at 7.
The Jets are close to breaking both the 9ers marks as they have recovered just 4 opponents fumbles this year.
They need to turn the Bills over 3 times this weekend to avoid these records.

Other fun NFL defense stats:
The 49ers have 18 sacks despite facing the 6th most pass attempts in the NFL. Myles Garrett alone has more sacks than the 49ers. 33 QBs have been sacked at least 18 times this season. Mac Jones was sacked 16 times in 8 games for the 49ers.
Dolphins are allowing 71.8% completion percentage...which would be the most in the NFL this season for any QB, 6th best mark all-time by any QB, and 3rd best mark by a non-Drew Brees.
Cowboys have allowed 4291 yards this season. Only Dak Prescott has thrown for more yards than the Cowboys have allowed.
Only Matthew Stafford has more TD passes than the Bengals and Cowboys have allowed this season.
Only Drake Maye and Matthew Stafford have a higher QB rating than the 109.7 allowed by the Cowboys and 108.6 allowed by the Jets.
The NFL record for most TD passes in a season without an Interception is Steve Young who threw 10 TDs without a pick as Montana's backup in 1987. The Jets have allowed 32 TDs without an interception this year.

You can luck into ints, like that 1st one bears got.
That's an incredible stat

Bills are in the playoffs already. They should not attempt a single pass

2012 saints D had interceptions?

Not hot take:
The Lions defense sucked under Aaron Glenn.

In this era, where everyone throws it around a ton, this is damn near statistically impossible

And their coach- who fortunately spurned the Saints- is supposed to be the DB specialist.
Posted on 12/29/25 at 3:23 pm to saintsfan92612
They'll probably get one this weekend since I assume Josh Allen will only play 2-3 possessions.

Maybe…but on the flip side, your QBs who lead the NFL in INTs are generally throwing significantly less than QBs who played in previous SB eras.

I don't know about interceptions but I'm sure they had pass interferences and defensive holdings. That's right around the time Goodell enacted his war on the Saints and anytime a DB looked at a receiver it was pass interference. I'm pretty sure they set a record. Meanwhile Seattle could tackle you and not get a penalty called.

Mitch is likely to start on Sunday so the jets will have a backup to try and finally get one

believe it or not the 2012 Saints D was 12th in Turnovers Forced and 14th in Interceptions having recovered 11 fumbles and picking off 15 passes.
The 2012 Saints D had 4 Pick 6's and 9 players with an INT and 7 defensive players with a fumble recovery.
That worst defense of all-time also pitched a 41-0 shutout of the Bucs where Josh Freeman turned the ball over 5 times by himself.
So in one game the 2012 Saints had forced more turnovers than the 2025 Jets have in 16 games.

On this date in 1979 Vernon Perry intercepted four passes and blocked the field goal
And the Houston Oilers were victorious.
I actually went to a practice before that game, having known a member of the Campbell family, and I said to Bum Phillips as we were walking off the practice field that I thought the Oilers were gonna win
he told me it was a fine young man I was right he was wrong But it's great memory nonetheless
Also of note, Farrah Fawcett's nephew was at the same practice they and Pastorini brought him because Dante was banging Farrah
Still have the hat I wore that day
has Bum Phillips, amongst other autographs on it LINK
