All-Time Greatest Jet: Mickey Shuler vs. Marvin Powell

[Edgy MD]

The contest that no one wanted gives us two guys who were almost exact contemporaries, often playing side by side.

Mickey Shuler	Marvin Powell
TE	OT
1978–1989	1977–1985
Two-time Second-team All-Pro (1986, 1988). Two- time Pro-Bowler (1986, 1988). New York Jets All- Time Four Decade Team. Second in team history in consecutive games with a reception (86) and second in most touchdowns in a game (three). Third all-time in total receptions.	Two-time First-Team All-Pro (1979, 1982). Second- team All-Pro (1980). Five(!)-time Pro Bowler (1979–1983). He was part of the 1979 line that blocked for a backfield that led the league in rushing despite a star-free corps of Clark Gaines, Kevin Long, Scott Dierking, Bruce Harper, and Tom Newton, before blocking for Freeman McNeil the first seven years of his career.
His son, Mickey, Jr., followed his career path, playing tight end at Penn State, and going on to the NFL with the Vikings.	Worked during his career to earn his JD from New York Law School (1987) and after his career, went to work for the Beverly Hills law firm of Rosenfeld, Meyer, & Susman.
