17/24 for me.. I'm sure the old school Jets Fans of over 30+ years would get at least 22/24.

If you have spelling issues, you can just type their last names.

I got 17/24, blanked on the rest. But didn't Jeff Blake start a game or two? What about Jay Fiedler? They're not there.

Fiedler went down in the same game as Pennington for the season - he was the backup and never started. I don't think we re-signed him the following year.

Jeff Blake did not start for us.

[John127]

Wow, I would have bet they started at least a game each. Forgot that about Fielder getting hurt in the same game....unreal.

Boom Head Shot- Just started typing away that history of the Jets book really helped!!

Did Tom Tupa just see spot duty in one game?

[MadBacker Prime]

Kyle Mackey played for us and the Phins 87-89

[John127]

Tom Tupa and Kyle Mackey! Two names I totally forgot about. Tupa never started.

Yep, the Vinny achilles game. One of the worst ever.

Yes, when Testeverde had the Achilles injury in week one.

Kyle started one game in 89 against the Saints.

17/24 not bad for only being alive for 19 yrs.

Tom Tupa was the 3rd QB in Vinny's achilles game. Once he was put in, we couldn't replace him during the game.

Kyle Mackey was originally a strike replacement player for the Dolphins in 1987. He played against us the last strike game, when the regulars were about to come back and a lot of them crossed the picket line for that game. Pat Ryan started for the Jets. Mackey knew it was his one last shot, he was diving all over the field, the Jets must have taken notice. Then Joe Walton started him towards the end of the horrible 1989 season, almost out of desperation, just to make a change. We had four starting QBs that year, O'Brien, Eason, Ryan and Mackey.

Tupa was the punter, Rick Mirer dressed as the #3 QB as he only signed a week or two before the opener. When they got to the 4th quarter they could use Mirer, which they did. Only problem there is we were winning the game with Tupa, he threw a TD to Keyshawn on the first play after Vinny's injury. It wasn't all Mirer's fault, but we probably should have stuck with Tupa.

22 out of 24...David Norrie and Marty Domres

[I bleed Jets Green]

Well the ones I can remember since I started being a Jets fan.

Richard Todd
Ken O'Brien
Browning Nagle
Vinny Testeverde
Chad Pennington
Brett Farve
Mark Sanchez
Kellen Clemens
Glen Foley
Ray Lucas
Rick Mirer
Brooks Bollinger
Boomer Esiason

I know I'm missing someone, but off the top of my head, that's who I remember.

What an ugly looking list. We Colts fans that suffered through the 80s and 90s feel your pain. We had 16 QBs over a 14 year stretch (first season in Indy to the arrival of Manning). Not surprisingly, Indy and the Jets seemed to trade QB castoffs.

Jeff George, Jack Trudeau, Jim Harbaugh, Mike Pagel, Chris Chandler, Gary Hogeboom, Paul Justin, Don Majkowski, Art Schlichter, Craig Erickson, Mark Herrmann, Kelly Holcomb, Blair Kiel, Matt Kofler, Browning Nagle, Tom Ramsey

Of the two biggest talents on the list, we dumped one (Chandler) early in his career, to take a shot at the other (George), who must be one of the biggest malcontents to play QB in the last 30 years. Others on the list were more famous for their prison time (Schlichter) or their stint on Survivor (Hogeboom).

It's pretty amazing what Peyton has done for the Colts, making them a perennial contender.

Way to hijack another Jet thread Colt Fan-
