There have been 36 starting quarterbacks for the Jets since Joe Namath left town after the 1976 season and none of them have hoisted the Lombardi Trophy with Gang Green.
. Esiason knows he will hear from Giants fans on his radio show relishing in the Jets’ misery if they have a slow start.
“I think if anybody is ready to do it and has the energy, just the drive, you can tell when you talk to him, you can hear it in his voice, you can see it,” Sanchez said. “He’s got a hop in his step. He looks, feels, sounds good. That’s a dangerous dude with the ball in his hands, especially when he’s locked in like that. Even on his worst day, he can still kick your ass. Catch him on his best day, good God, that’s a problem.
“I think he has definitely experienced the good,” Esiason said. “He’s already done that. He’s felt the love. He’s felt the enjoyment from the Jets fan. He’s smart enough to know the history of this franchise. He’s smart enough to know there’s only one Lombardi Trophy in that case. He also knows this is a team that hasn’t been to the playoffs in 12 seasons. That’s basically the worst in the NFL.”

Head coach Robert Saleh, general manager Joe Douglas and owner Woody JohnsonBoomer Esiason knows Rodgers has what it takes to succeed with Gang Green.But at some point, Rodgers may feel the failures of the past and the dark cloud that can hover over One Jets Drive.
