After talking with a NYJ fan friend of mine, he was going on about how bad they need an elite QB and how they haven't had one since Joe Namath.
I said Namath is known for the Guarantee and helping put the AFL on the map. He played with some great Backs, a solid OLine and a nasty Defense. He had a great arm but he was sloppy, had terrible mechanics, awful stats and is the worst QB in the HoF.
He proceeded to having a melt down.
His stats are terrible. More INTs than TDs, more losses than wins, a very mediocre passer rating... He resembles more Cutler than Farve.
He benefited from the NY media and a flamboyant lifestyle and being the sex symbol of the 60s.
Am i alone with my thoughts on Namath? He was thoroughly outplayed by other QBs of the era that arent in the Hall.
