Joe Namath threw six interceptions three times — Oct. 15, 1967; Oct. 18, 1970; and Oct. 19, 1975. So two of his pick-sixes came after Jan. 12, 1969, when he won Super Bowl III.
Ryan Fitzpatrick hasn’t won a Super Bowl, hasn’t even played in a playoff game, and Woody Johnson is paying him $12 million this season to lead the Jets to the playoffs for the first time since the 2010 season.
The owner is paying Fitzpatrick to win games like the one Sunday against the Seahawks, at a time when the 1-2 Jets cannot afford to lose it.
