A Stunning Ending for the Opener! (Jets vs. Bills 2002, Week 1)

He only made one Pro Bowl and had three 1000-yard seasons in his career but Henry was a SOLID RB. Loved the toughness he ran with.
That block by Bledsoe too 🔥

Definitely 1 of the better players on the 01 team. I still have no clue why they didn't start alex van pelt the entire year. He didn't play that bad

In both, the Jets were winning in the 4th quarter and the Bills tied it up in last minute of the 4th quarter.

'02 Jets was on my all time favorite teams. All that adversity they went through and still won the AFC East and a playoff game and played tough until the season ended. Jets still hasn't won the AFC EAST since this team took on the field.

[@brianshaughnessy4020]

bledsoe was still a very good quarterback. I believe patriots moving on from him did some damage to his psyche as the reason for it made perfect sense. Wentz and Bledsoe were never the same again.

[@JWD1992]

Ironically, Bledsoe threw for more yards than Brady in 2002, and with only one more INT. And their pass attempts were similar. He did get sacked a lot, though. And Brady threw four more TDs. But still. I think most football fans think Drew never did anything again after getting hit by Mo Lewis.
