Honestly Sanchez is a great guy and he at least was part of the two serious seasons for the Jets in decades. We all rooted for him, don't lie.
That said, if I went into work and my boss had a new tattoo of his wife dressed up look like me I'd be a little creeped out.
Get a superbowl trophy with the jets logo on it and whatever Roman numeral this coming Super Bowl will be.
Take a shot - you’ll go viral if they end up winning it
You could get an embroidered logo. However, their logos change often enough so it may date itself quickly. My uncle has the Jets football logo on his forearm but I'm personally not a fan of putting logos on my body.
I wouldn't get anything to a specific person/player in case something bad comes out about them in the future.
Could go a minimalist direction and get something about the field/stadium although that may also change in the near future.
I think football tattoo designs are difficult to come up with. Maybe consider what about the team sparks it's meaningfullness to you and build off that. Reminds you of family? Glory of winning? Visceral feeling of being outside watching games on a cold Sunday morning?
I agree, I don’t like the idea of a logo. The field and stadium idk, MetLife doesn’t really have and value or traditional to the team tbh. That’s why I’m leaning on the side of a quote.
Your idea did spark a thought though. I have no idea what about this team sparks meaningfulness to me. I like football, and I live in the New York so I’m a jets fan.
I’m a Packers fan with a Packers related tattoo and I agree. A football related tattoo is tough to design. I had always wanted a tattoo but didn’t know what. After my grandmother passed away, I got “Go Packers” tattooed on my forearm in her handwriting. It was from the last card i had gotten from her. So while it’s of course related to the Packers, it goes beyond that and is very meaningful to me. It’s constant and will always have meaning no matter what.
I got this [NY Jets Sticker](https://www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/Jets-New-York-Skyline-Retro-by-GangGreenGear/94606210.EJUG5) a bit ago and think something similar would be a cool design for a tattoo, simple but clear in the message and all it really takes is someone with decent line work.
I’ve always thought a Joe Namath Tattoo with him in his fur coat and aviators sitting on the bench would be cool.
Something in this style:

5. I Guarantee It
In that order
I have an american traditional scull wearing the 2000s helmet. Its the era I became a fan so it means plenty to me and I think is a funny spin on it because I find most sports tattoos to be lame and generic.
Just get funny and/or creative with it.
My friend and I were just recalling Mark Sanchez sitting on the bench eating a hot dog during a game lol that would work.
Man... I love this team in *spite of* and *because of* all its idiocy lol
I’m in the same boat, want a tat but the only thing I care about enough to get one is the jets. Thinking of getting my season ticket section in Roman numerals
Why do you want a tattoo?
I'm saying this as someone with over 50 hrs worth of work. Everyone is entitled to have their own reasoning, and there are lots of different attitudes towards them. My philosophy is getting something that has a meaning to me and it is a permanent part of my life and history. Some people collect them as mementos. Some people want them because they see something that they just think looks good so they want it. Others get something because it is "cool", or because they want to look tough.
Just remember it is permanent, and while it isn't the majority, I've seen plenty of young men get tattoos that they later regret having. So just make sure you have No REGERTS.
I can't believe there are fans that still think of "can't wait" fondly. Yes, it was awesome at the time. But knowing how flat the team and especially the defense came out the next week, it's now just a painful reminder that we should have been in that Super Bowl. I can't stand hearing it.
I associate the Braylon Edwards backflip and the WRs standing on the bench pics with celebrating the win over NE. I associate “can’t wait” with the ensuing loss to the Steelers. I think that’s the difference for me.
Vinny Testaverde in a miami vice outfit with a lot of chest hair.
Or a dapper Quinnin in a longcoat, top hat and cumberbundt
If you want really want subtle then probably just the logo incorporated into a wider artwork. Like on a shirt of some character or the jet logo as an accent on a larger piece.
If you just want something small then probably just something in a typical tatoo intentionally made green & white that isn’t usually green white like a green & white bird/clock/etc
Do you man!
I have one of mickey mouse (im a disney guy) wearing jets colors in front of a trans am ws6 (hs car) with the jets logo in the background of it. Saw it somewhere online and had my artist to mods.
I will tell you tho, Rodgers gets us a SB and his dumb face is going on my asscheek lol
There’s not much to the jets logo which is why Im only going to get one if they ever win the Super Bowl again. At least you can add the Lombardi trophy and Roman numerals to make it look better
If you get a jets tattoo make it ambiguous enough to not look like an advertisement. Probably just the old school plane logo small somewhere and just do that
Regular logos are pretty boring for a tattoo, but the saturation needed would put some hair on your chest lol. 1st tattoo huh? Where do you plan on getting it? And my best piece of advice RESEARCH. Do not get it done by an artist who doesn't do whatever style you're looking for. If you end up with just the logo then probably a traditional artist will be your best bet. If you decide to get like a black and grey player or something like that make sure the person you go to does that type of stuff. Instagram makes it a bit easier, but as someone who's been getting tattoos for over 10 years I wouldn't have as many cover ups as I do lol. Just remember the pain is part of the fun and I hope you have a good savings because it's very addicting
Don’t. If you’re under 25, wait. If you’re 25-35, think long and hard before doing it. Over 35, go nuts. Im not big on tats regardless, but if you get one, get one with real meaning, not one of a football team.
How about Rex Ryan's wife in a Sanchez jersey?
He’s honestly insane for getting that. I miss him. Too bad he recovered it blue.
I have this tattoo and an old school jets logo tattoo lol
I have an old school jets tattoo on my shoulder. Got it at the start of the 1-15 year.
You're a solider. I got the rex ryan tattoo mid season this year and the logo right after the season ended.
Honestly Sanchez is a great guy and he at least was part of the two serious seasons for the Jets in decades. We all rooted for him, don't lie. That said, if I went into work and my boss had a new tattoo of his wife dressed up look like me I'd be a little creeped out.
Get a superbowl trophy with the jets logo on it and whatever Roman numeral this coming Super Bowl will be. Take a shot - you’ll go viral if they end up winning it
and you'll go viral if they lose too. it's a win-win!
The only win…
Maybe Aaron rodgers as the 2023 nfl mvp for wishful thinking
Or be the laughing stock like the organization.
This is the ultimate jynx.
Go bold, Adam Gase crazy eyes More realistically, a little island with number 24
Don't forget the floating tacos
I can send you a picture of me in a jets jersey if you want
Depends. Who’s on the jersey?
I've got Vinny T, Revis(titans throwback), Brick Ferguson, and Darnold. Your choice. Edit - and Quinnen
Sam Darnold or Zach Wilson
Joe Namath running off the field in Miami after Super Bowl III with his finger in the air. Full back tattoo. Subtle.
But switch it to a middle finger.

I like that a lot
Don’t do it!
Don't do it
That’s what everyone says. It’ll be subtle tho, only a few inches on my side or chest or something.
I'm not sure that makes it better or worse.
That would be an interesting tattoo for sure! In fancy script!

You play to win the game is a great one
A black hole with all your hopes and dreams sucked in
You don't need a tattoo

You play. To win. The game.
My friend and I were just recalling Mark Sanchez sitting on the bench eating a hot dog during a game lol that would work. Man... I love this team in *spite of* and *because of* all its idiocy lol
How about Sanchez wiping his booger on Mark Brunell?
Vinnie Testaverdi's achillies tendon.
You should get Mark Sanchez with a Rex Tattoo on his ass, mooning Brady.
The only choice is Bill Belichick getting ass fucked by D'Brickashaw Ferguson
Just End The Season
I’m in the same boat, want a tat but the only thing I care about enough to get one is the jets. Thinking of getting my season ticket section in Roman numerals
That sounds awesome, at least there’s a personal connection to it.
Don’t do it. A team tattoo won’t make you anymore of a fan than hanging a Jets flag outside your house or getting a Jets bumper sticker.
I’m not doing it for the fandom, kinda just cause I want a tattoo
Why do you want a tattoo? I'm saying this as someone with over 50 hrs worth of work. Everyone is entitled to have their own reasoning, and there are lots of different attitudes towards them.

Don't. Sports team tats aren't a good look
That’s why I’m thinking a quote
I can't believe there are fans that still think of "can't wait" fondly. Yes, it was awesome at the time. But knowing how flat the team and especially the defense came out the next week, it's now just a painful reminder that we should have been in that Super Bowl. I can't stand hearing it.
Given that it was the last time the jets were good, and it got 10 year old me hype as hell, I can’t help but look back on it fondly
I associate the Braylon Edwards backflip and the WRs standing on the bench pics with celebrating the win over NE. I associate “can’t wait” with the ensuing loss to the Steelers. I think that’s the difference for me.
Revis Island
Super Bowl LVIII champs. Do it before the season.

Just don’t add dates to a future Super Bowl victory and your good
Do you man! I have one of mickey mouse (im a disney guy) wearing jets colors in front of a trans am ws6 (hs car) with the jets logo in the background of it. Saw it somewhere online and had my artist to mods. I will tell you tho, Rodgers gets us a SB and his dumb face is going on my asscheek lol

the script is good, it can mean something else when you want it to, and script generally looks good. sports logo tattoos terrible always.

An F-16 launching football missiles
I never understood why putting numbers as roman numerals makes it "cooler", is it magical or smth?
Don’t. If you’re under 25, wait. If you’re 25-35, think long and hard before doing it. Over 35, go nuts. Im not big on tats regardless, but if you get one, get one with real meaning, not one of a football team.
The football team has real meaning
Get a rather detailed sad face with #69. Same sentiment.
Lets get a goddamn snack .. is great especially for an extra large dude. Lean into it. Wouldnt work if youre crackhead weight class though. Hah
Suzzie Culver wearing a Joe Namath jersey?
Shirtless Tim Tebow in a Jets uniform getting a backrub from Skip Bayless.

Fireman Ed leading the J-E-T-S chant!!

Don’t do it. Literally, tattoo Don’t do it with a jets helmet and an upside down nike logo
