There's four teams left in route to this year's Super Bowl -- the NFC has the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears, while the AFC has the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York JETS.
Nearly all of the teams have unofficial anthems. Pittsburgh has Wiz Khalifa's smash "Black and Yellow," and Atlanta trio EDUBB created "Atlanta" in support of the Falcons who were crushed by the Packers last Saturday.
Most recently, G.O.O.D. Music recording artist Consequence created a theme track for his home team, the Jets, titled "J.E.T.S. (Put Your Arms Out)".
So far, it has become popular among fans, is currently getting air play on New York radio stations, and the New York Daily News just ran a piece about it.
In the song, there's the familiar chant, "J-E-T-S, Jets! Jets! Jets!", that fans love to shout during game. Then later, on the chorus, Cons spits: "Put your arms out, and get ready to take off. This year New York is running the playoffs."
He also mentions several Jets players -- past and present -- including Mark Sanchez, LaDainian Tomlinson, Bart Scott, Braylon Edwards and "Broadway" Joe Namath.

Cons dropped the new song just this week, in time for the Jets' AFC Championship game against the Steelers on Sunday (January 23). The winner goes to the Super Bowl.
"We're going to win! It's their time," Cons told the Daily News, predicting a 20-14 Jets win.
"I hope it inspires them," he continued. "I hope Mark Sanchez got it on pump when he's leaving the locker room, and Braylon Edwards and the whole team for that matter."
Consequence revealed to the paper that he was motivated to make "J.E.T.S." because of the popularity of Wiz Khalifa's unofficial rap anthem of the Steelers. However, when asked whose song was better, his answer was simple: "Mines! This is New York!"
