Fun factoid.   Geno Smith, in the 43 years of Monday Night Football, is only the second rookie to win on the road.  The other?
Dan Marino.  
Hope we found our franchise quarterback.

I have a factoid for your Sheila.  In the 1983 draft, the Jets, Patriots and Dolphins all picked quarterbacks in the first round.  The Pats went first, the Jets followed, and the Dolphins went third.

With the 15th pick, the Patriots chose the immortal Tony Eason.

With the 24th pick, the Jets chose Ken O'Brien, who actually had an OK career, but not exactly Hall of Fame worthy.

With the 27th pick, who do you think the Dolphins picked who was passed over by both New England and New York?

Answer:  Dan Marino.

Marino only went to one SB, and lost lol Kelly have gotten to 4 SB, but lost all 4. Boomer even got to a SB, but lost to the 49ers but was a close game.


Yes, Jim Kelly was in that draft, but he was taken by Buffalo who picked ahead of NE, NY and Miami, so he was gone when we all picked. 

Boomer was drafted the following year.
