Through the years, Eagles have the edge over Jets - WSJ.com
It hasn't mattered if the Philadelphia Eagles were very good or very bad, like 12-4 and on the way to their third straight NFC championship game or 5-8-1 and going nowhere. Either way, Philadelphia has had an edge over the New York Jets. In fact, eight times since the series started in 1973, the Eagles have met the Jets, and in all eight times, the Eagles won. The unbeaten run is the longest of any streak in the league.
