The 1984 New York Jets season was the 25th season for the team and the 15th in the National Football League . It began with the team trying to improve upon its 7–9 record from 1983 under head coach Joe Walton . After playing the previous 20 seasons at Shea Stadium in Queens , 1984 marked their first season of playing its home games at Giants Stadium in The Meadowlands , which was also the home of the NFC's New York Giants . Mark Gastineau made NFL history by recording 22 sacks, to establish a then new official single season record. The Jets finished the season with a record of 7–9.
