Nevermind Batman and Robin, We've Got Jordan and Pippen!

With shutdown CB Darrelle Revis back practicing in Florham Park, the Jets secondary is, arguably the best in the NFL going into the season. This isn't a stretch, being that the Jets had the number one-ranked pass defense throughout almost the entire season last year, giving up only 169.1 ypg through the air.
CB Antonio Cromartie was brought in to replace CB Lito Sheppard this season. Cromartie was involved in some locker room disagreements with teammates last year, namely S Eric Weddle. All of that is in the past now, as 'Al-Cro-Traz' has relocated to the east coast, operating in a new system in a new environment.
Now, the two (Revis and Cromartie) will be starting alongside each other sporting the green and white, and if Cromartie can return to his 2007 form, the Jets may be looking at one of the best CB tandems in NFL history.
But what to name them?
Cromartie had some ideas, and he informed the NY Post about what they were:

As a Heat fan since 2001
I really don’t like the fact how Wade isn’t seen as the leader of the team, since LeBitch came to us he is the new leader. Forget that its Wade’s team and after Wade it’s UD. LeBron isn’t a leader

And also it showed signs of maturity.
The Old Cro’ never would have admitted that.

Revis is Pay Per View, Cro is the Playboy Channel and Wilson is Nickeloden!

You my friend...
took the words right out of my mouth.
….. REALLY D.J., …. really?!
GANG GREEN ALL DAY!
You see, it's not about how you won the game, it's about how you played the game.... there's a difference.
Revis was lights out in practice today
Rex said only thing wrong with Revis is he is 4-5 pounds overweight.

If you dig deep, this is actually not a terrible comparison. Revis is the most dominant force at his position in the game like Jordan. Cromartie’s a physical freak who creates matchup problems like Pippen, but also like Pippen, you wouldn’t necessarily want him being your top dog.

You Jets fans are rediculous...
They are Cromartie & Revis…. not Jordan & Pippin..not Sonny & Cher….not Sigfried & Roy…but CROMARTIE & REVIS….they are good enough that their names should stand alone…similar to how you will here Henne & Marshall this year!! haha!! Good luck in week three amigos, may the best team win!

A.) Learn to spell a great basketball Legends name right- Pippen
B.) Don’t worry about the best team winning, Jets got it covered

.......?!
Henne and Marshall? You serious about that jive? Nothing even points to them being that dope… hold off with the ridiculous predictions that have no merit whatsoever.
fin fans amaze me about how astound they are because they have a WR that puts up numbers, and all of a sudden the QB is the best in the league too. lol kick rocks.

jets fan amaze me about how astound they are because they have a CB that is lights out, and all of a sudden the other washed up CB they traded for is the best in the league too. lol learn grammar
whomp...
You understood what I meant… and…
Who said the other CB is the best in the league? We’re going to use him how he is supposed to be used… so essentially in THIS defense he’ll be better than previously.
GANG GREEN ALL DAY!

Lets see you have Revis Island
AlCroTraz…..now Kyle just needs to name himself after an island and they can be the Bermuda Triangle! where passes disappear and receivers go to die.
IMPEACH DOLAN!!!!
Well...
I guess you can say “Wilson” will be the good friend of the Cast Away?
eh, just throwing things at the wall…you know

Jordan and Pippen
Cro has long arms just like Pippen and Revis is definitely a superstar in his own right. I just cant wait to see all the biltzes we bring. At least two free blitzers each trip.
The New Jersey Keys?
Er, Mr. Payne. Sir. You know every second that you could let us out early would really increase our chances of survival.
It's like our sergeant told us before one trip into the jungle.
Men!
Fifty of you are leaving on a mission. Twenty-five of you ain't coming back.
