Head Coach
"Wherever he has gone as a coach, Weeb Ewbank has built winners, including two successive championship teams with the Baltimore Colts, where he developed the great John Unitas. Weeb hopes to produce his first AFL champion for New York this year, and he believes he may have another Unitas in quarterback Joe Namath.
Weeb began his football coaching career under the master, Paul Brown. He is also remembered in New York for the time he tried to take a punch at Sam Huff for 'roughing up' his Colts.
Now beginning his third year as Jet pilot, the former Miami of Ohio athlete is sitting pretty. Not only does he command the troops in the field, but he is the club's general manager as well."
-Jack Zanger, Pro Football 1965
