He spent the majority of his career with the [[New York Jets]]. Namath played [[college football]] for the [[Alabama Crimson Tide football|Alabama Crimson Tide]], where he won the [[College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS|national championship]] as a senior, and was selected by the Jets first overall in the [[1965 AFL draft]]. During his five AFL seasons, Namath was a two-time [[American Football League Most Valuable Player Award|MVP]] and twice led the league in passing yards, while winning one [[American Football League playoffs|AFL championship]] and one [[Super Bowl]]. Both victories remain the Jets' only championships. Following the 1970 [[AFL–NFL merger]], he joined the NFL with the Jets, where he was the league's passing yards and touchdowns leader during the 1972 season. He played in New York for seven more seasons and spent his final year as a member of the [[Los Angeles Rams]]. Namath cemented his legacy in 1969 when he guaranteed his heavy underdog Jets would win [[Super Bowl III]] before defeating the NFL's [[Baltimore Colts]] in one of the greatest sports upsets of all time. The Super Bowl victory was the first for an AFL franchise, helping dismiss notions that its teams were inferior to the NFL's and demonstrating they would enter the merger as equals. Namath received [[Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Award|Super Bowl MVP]] honors in the game, while also becoming the first quarterback to win both a college national championship and a major professional championship. He was inducted into the [[Pro Football Hall of Fame]] in 1985. ==Early life== Namath was born and raised in [[Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania|Beaver Falls]], [[Pennsylvania]], 30 miles (50&nbsp;km) northwest of [[Pittsburgh]].

The first two interleague championship games had resulted in blowout victories for the NFL's [[Green Bay Packers]], and sports writers from NFL cities insisted the AFL would take several more years to be truly competitive.

Namath was the [[Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Award|Super Bowl MVP]], completing eight passes to [[George Sauer Jr.]] alone for 133 yards. The win made him the first quarterback to start and win a national championship game in college, a major professional league championship, and a Super Bowl. The Jets' win gave the AFL instant legitimacy even to skeptics. When he was asked by reporters after the game whether the Colts' defense was the "toughest he had ever faced", Namath responded, "That would be the [[1968 Buffalo Bills season|Buffalo Bills]]' defense." The AFL-worst Bills had intercepted Namath five times, three for touchdowns, in their only win in 1968 in late September. ====Later career with the Jets==== After not missing a single game because of injury in his first five years in the league, Namath played in just 28 of 58 possible games between 1970 and 1973 because of various injuries. After winning division championships in 1968 and 1969, the Jets struggled to records of 4–10, 6–8, 7–7, and 4–10. His most memorable moment in those four seasons came on September 24, 1972, when he and his boyhood idol [[Johnny Unitas]] combined for 872 passing yards in Baltimore. Namath threw for 496 yards and six touchdowns and Unitas 376 yards and three in a 44–34 New York victory over the Colts, its first against Baltimore since Super Bowl III. The game is considered by many NFL experts to be the finest display of passing in a single game in league history.<ref name="kriegel" />{{rp|346}} Another notable moment was in 1970, when the head of [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]'s televised sports, [[Roone Arledge]], made sure that ''[[Monday Night Football]]'''s inaugural game on September 21, featured Namath. The Jets met the [[1970 Cleveland Browns season|Cleveland Browns]] in [[Cleveland Municipal Stadium]] in front of both a record crowd of 85,703 and a huge television audience.

First, they designed their uniforms nearly identically to that of the Jets, dropping red and going with green and white, to allow Namath to continue marketing his number 12 jersey in Jets colors. Then they offered Namath a contract worth $600,000 a year for three years; a $2 million annuity ($100,000 per year for 20 years); a $500,000 signing bonus; and terms for Namath's eventual ownership of a WFL franchise. The WFL's television provider, [[TVS Television Network]], insisted on the Winds signing Namath to continue broadcasts. Upon this development, Namath, in turn, requested the lofty sum of 15 percent of the entire league's television revenue, which was rejected by the league. Without a national television deal, the WFL instead opted to fold a month later.<ref name=SIMoney>Johnson, William Oscar.

Namath refused, apparently retiring from football during a teary news conference, but he eventually recanted and agreed to sell the club, and reported to the Jets in time for the 1969–70 season. Namath again threatened to retire before the 1970 and 1971 seasons; ''[[New York (magazine)|New York]]'' wrote in 1971 that "his retirement act had become shallow and predictable".

The white shoes started when Namath was at Alabama, where he kept having his worn-out cleats taped over as a superstition, especially after his first major knee injury was the result of a game in which he had forgotten to have the shoes taped. When he joined the Jets, Namath continued to have his shoes taped until Jets coach Weeb Ewbank noticed that the excess tape usage was costing the team money, so he ordered white cleats for Namath. He originated the fad of wearing a full-length fur coat on the sidelines (since banned by the NFL, which requires all players, coaches, athletic trainers, et al., to wear league-approved team apparel).<ref name="nypost.com">{{Cite web|url=https://nypost.com/2014/02/04/the-story-behind-joe-namaths-super-bowl-coat/|title=The story behind Joe Namath's Super Bowl coat|date=February 4, 2014}}</ref> Namath also appeared in television advertisements both during and after his playing career, most notably for [[Ovaltine]] milk flavoring,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On2gd6-Rfls |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211212/On2gd6-Rfls| archive-date=December 12, 2021 |url-status=live|title=Celeb Ad Ovaltine Joe Namath |publisher=[[YouTube]] |date=March 28, 2013 |access-date=June 16, 2017}}{{cbignore}}</ref> [[Noxzema]] shaving cream (in which he was shaved by a then-unknown [[Farrah Fawcett]]),<ref name="Noxema with Farrah"/> and [[Hanes]] Beautymist pantyhose (which he famously wore in the commercials).
