Joe W. Namath Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Some of these guys need to make the all 80s team too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nixhead Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Didn't Joe Namath play a few seasons in the 70's if I recall? I would put Joe in there over Todd. Now I liked Todd until the mud bowl but he didn't do much in the 70's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of 72 Joe wasn’t very good in the 70s either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 A lot of the guys on that list were only with the team at the beginning or the end of the 70’s. Namath was there until 76. Winston hill barely made it into the 70’s. Steve Tannen? Talk about a guy who just couldn’t stay on the field. Same thing with Eliot. Burgess Owens was there as was Clark Gaines. I think the bottom line is the whole 70’s was a rebuilding decade as the team moved from embankment to Michael’s (with a couple bad stops on the way).

Claymation Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 No Buttle? FB was a part of the offense back then, Clark Gaines or John Riggins. RB I would put Emerson Boozer, though I love Bruce Harper I would rather have Maynard as my WR over Barkum. No love for Rich Caster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of 72 Joe wasn’t very good in the 70s either. Problem was Joe was often injured in the 70s. His best seasons were 72 & 74. In the second half of 74 the Jets won 6 in a row and knocked off some of the top teams in the conference. By 1975 Joe had declined physically and both the 75 and 76 Jets were among the worst Jets teams in history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
