“When we get together, it’s just like yesteryear,” quarterback Joe Namath said at the anniversary dinner at MetLife Stadium back on Oct. 13 to reminisce and celebrate that truly remarkable team one more time. “This is like 1968 and 1969 with this group of guys, our teammates. … We had a unity, and to this day when we look at each other, man, it’s like we’ve been together all these years. We won it and I’m thankful, we’re thankful to be a part of the jets organization today.”
“It’s crazy, 50 years, for sure,” Namath said at the dinner. “But whenever we get together, it’s just like yesteryear. This is like 1968, 1969, this group of guys, these teammates. We had a unity, and to this day, when we look at each other, man, it’s like we’ve been together all these years. We won it and I’m thankful, yes, I’m thankful. We’re thankful to be a part of the Jets organization today.
“And what we’ve got to do now is win another one. That’s what we’ve got to do.
