joewilly12 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 http://nypost.com/2013/11/27/ed-reed-jets-need-to-bring-fireman-ed-back/ Jets safety Ed Reed will play his first game at MetLife Stadium with the team on Sunday against the Dolphins. He was upset to learn Wednesday he won’t see famed Jets fan “Fireman Ed” leading the cheers. “That guy with the hard hat on, is he still here? What’s his name, Fireman Ed?” Reed said. “I need him getting the whole stadium crunked.” “Fireman” Ed Anzalone quit a year ago after the Jets were humiliated on Thanksgiving by the Patriots 49-19 in the game famous for Mark Sanchez’s “buttfumble.” Anzalone stooped leading the “J-E-T-S” chant after that game. Reed joked that maybe Anzalone would come back. “He retired? I can’t believe it. We need to bring him out of retirement,” Reed said. The Jets are 4-1 this season at home and 1-5 on the road. Reed said the Jets are counting on the fans to give them a boost on Sunday. “It’s going to be fun to play in front of the home crowd and have that energy that we need,” Reed said. “We’re going to need the 12th man really bad to get this going the right way, to try to get this train moving to where we want to go. I think as a team we need it. We need that energy.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Milliner runs a 4.37, I'm not sure what his 10 yard split is though cause that's the minimum cushion he gives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoicsentry Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I haven't been to a game this year, but I don't hear the JETS chant at all on TV. I know the Jets were stupidly trying to choreograph the damn thing, but apparently it's not working. Can those that have been to games clarify as to what's going on... is the chant lifeless?

Kleckineau Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Jets would have gotten more bang for their buck if they brought back Ed Anzalone instead of Ed Reed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I think its an absolute embarrassment that the Jets fans need any one person to make them get loud at that sh*thole of a stadium. I really really miss the old stadium, as do most of the fans who used to make that stadium loud. The Jets have the most expensive tickets in the league (yes more expensive than their co-tenant the Giants, who btw have won 2 super bowls on the last 5 years) in a shared stadium. that is absolutely ridiculous, and now you are seeing what greed does.

CM28 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I think Ed should focus on playing better.. About the chant. At first i thought it was lame that they wanted a new version of the J-E-T-S, but i like it, it works. Do not know what more experient fans think.

FloridaJetsFan Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 With this team, we should have maybe Policeman Ed, or Cowboy Ed, or how bout Indian Ed - hell let's get the whole damn Village People Ed!

What's your source? This source says the Jets have the 12th highest average ticket price this season, with the Giants being 3rd highest. Oh, I think I found what you were referring to.

Section 224B Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Fireman Ed like him or not got the crowd fired up and the Jets players fired up on the field. They need to make things right with Fireman Ed. not exactly lol Fireman Ed is overrated at best and the ONLY reason why it "appeared" that he got the crowd fired up was because they showed HIM on the BIG SCREEN and there have been MANY times dating back to when he first came on board that if the camera wasn't on him? you could barely hear the crowd...it's like having someone talk through a microphone...it helps ALOT lol otherwise it falls on deaf ears and that's a fact. The Jets owe Ed NOTHING infact...they made HIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets owe Ed NOTHING infact...they made HIM. Having attended many home games you are WRONG. Fireman Ed fired up the players and the crowd I can remember on kickoffs the players looked for him to start the chant and often encouraged it. Certain fans just don't like the fact that Ed did a service why be jealous over a guy who cheers on your team? The Chant isn't the same and sucks since Ed no longer does it. Ed owes the Jets nothing and Jets dropped another ball in the organizations history for not getting him back. That's a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
