Age 62 A short sample size so far, but I had the feeling, that most fans REALLY love the first Jet's team that they were introduced to. For me, it was the 1981/82 Jets. Might as well list that entire roster as my favorite Jets off all time. No game in Jet's history still PISSES ME OFF like the f*****g Mud Bowl... Even though that was my "first love", I sill have to add later Jets, Mangold and Revis to my list. Two legendary Jets of the modern era Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I’m 24 so expect a younger generation of Jets on this list... No order. Nick Mangold Darrelle Revis Curtis Martin D’Brickashaw Ferguson Sam Darnold (yeah I said it.) Wayne Cherbet David Harris Chad Pennington(I was a kid, I didn’t understand “noodle arm” remarks) Bart Scott Joe Klecko (watched so many 80’s games one summer lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson King Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Namath Boozer Snell Sauer, Jr Maynard Philbin Lammons Klecko Plunkett Jim Turner 60's the "early team" theory holds. Part of that is we grow up. get older, discover girls (or boys or sheep or whatever floats your boat) and idolize elsewhere. Reasonable cognition turns this from being your identity to your entertainment. "First" team, BTW included Bake Turner, Pete Liske, Dainard Paulson and LaVerne Torczon (he was in the '64 Mets yearbook) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko Toon Chrebet Erik McMillan (loved that guy) Walker Mawae Mangold Along with an instinct to pick footballs out of the air, I recall McMillin had major issues with Bruce Coslet, who was one of my least liked Jets coaches. If memory serves, McMillian wanted to "freelance" and Coslet wanted him to act as a cog in a disciplined defense... Not sure, though... I remember an article in the Bergen Record from that time where McMillin was quoted to say that Coslet was trying to wreck his career... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playtowinthegame Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 He was good enough (31 TD's), smart enough (Harvard), and doggone it Mangold liked him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyLV Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 1. Nanath 2. Chrebet Rest in no order: Mangold Braylon Edwards (not a popular choice probably but he was underrated as a player before his injury, and was a little odd but not destructive. Choosing Holmes over Edwards was idiotic.) Santana Moss/L. Coles Cotchery Klecko Walker Darnold Testaverde 55 years old 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
