Jets Most Memorable Play
- Thread starter FinfanInBuffalo
- Start date
So it was your fault for not going and NOT the wind. LOL.
I've seen the Fins play in Ohio 5 times over the last 25 years and they have won every game. Sometimes we feel like we are the lucky charm but eventually the trend changes.
I tend to blame myself:crazy:

had he stayed healthy I'd agree but he couldn't which is typical jets luck.

Quite possibly the most overrated QB of all time.
I think he takes the crown on that one.

As a QB I agree but the guy was cool and the chicks dug him. The win over Shula's Colts lead to the two leagues merging and that changed football forever.
When i was a kid every boy wanted to grow up to be like Joe. Even us Dolphin fans. i know he was a poor role model but never the less that's how I remember it. The fact he was an alcoholic who associated with mobsters was irrelevant

Joe was the first superstar football player and was vital to the growth of pro football. Unfortunately for him and my team he wasn't durable and had major injury issues which robbed him of his great natural ability.
He belongs in the HOF for the attention he brought to the game he doesn't belong in for his actual play on the field where he only had a brief run of greatness.

Had a Roll Tide pendent on my bedroom wall until i was in junior high when it was replaced with this one
Puberty always wins :)

he couldn't stay healthy in his era, imagine playing bigger, stronger, faster players. Namath was overrated b/c of health, if he would have stayed healthy he would have been great but he couldn't and he wasn't great.

Watch his film at Bama before his knees were shot...Plus what he did in the pro's in spite of his health is awesome...that's like saying Gale Sayers was overrated because of injuries...
Being a Bama guy..I have a soft spot for Joe Willy...
NYJUNC...can i ask you a question..How old are you?...What i mean is did you watch Joe live or on old film?..Not trying to start anything.
I am not discussing him at 'Bama, I am discussing him as a pro QB.
I am not old enough to have seen him but I am a history guy, I have seen, read, heard enough to form an educated opinion. I understand he's probably a top 5 all time talent but injuries count and the man came into the AFL hurt and kept getting hurt. it is typical Jets luck to have a talent like that and not have him healthy.

Namath and Muhammad Ali were my favorite athletes back then. My parents hated both of them but I liked the ****y
" I guarantee a win " attitude.
Both had huge balls and backed it up.
