Jets superfan Fireman Ed says the team is letting him run out of MetLife

The New York Jets have had an eventful two-week stretch marked by a coaching change and a blockbuster transfer.

And something else might be wrong at MetLife Stadium, according to the Jets' most famous fan.

Ed Anzalone, better known as “Fireman Ed,” said on social media Tuesday night that the Jets would limit his screen time on the video boards at MetLife Stadium during home games.

“I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but they’re letting us out,” Anzalone said in a video posted to his Instagram account. “I would like to know if anyone knows anything. Please let me know because it’s obvious it’s happening and it needs to stop because we need the home advantage.”

Anzalone has been a fixture at Jets home games for decades, best known for his signature fireman's helmet and his role in cheering fans on the famous “JETS” chant. He said he noticed the lack of screen time during the Jets' Week 4 loss to the Denver Broncos and Monday's loss to the Buffalo Bills.

“Especially last night – although also in the Denver game – we scored a touchdown in particular last night and usually traditionally we are always shown on the screen,” Anzalone said, referring to himself and two other Jets superfans. “(We) sing the Jet chant to get the crowd going, which is a staple at JetLife Stadium.”

Anzalone noted that he also traditionally fires up the crowd when the Jets are on defense, which he said is “the most important thing,” before saying that “something is going on” with the organization's production team monitoring the video boards.

“Something is going on, so if you know anything, please let me know,” Anzalone said.

The Jets fell 4-2 on Monday in their first game under Jeff Ulbrich, who was promoted to interim coach last week after Robert Saleh was fired.

However, less than 24 hours after the loss to the Bills, the Jets acquired Davante Adams in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders, reuniting the star wide receiver with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The Jets play their next two games on the road before returning to MetLife on October 31 for a Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.
