Fly this on a banner: Ex-Jets GM John Idzik on verge of championship

John Idzik is one game away from the Super Bowl. You remember him, don't you? He was the New York Jets' general manager in 2013 and 2014, an ill-fated tenure that can best be described this way:

One promising year, one awful year and one ugly ouster.

In Idzik's final weeks, the toxicity level -- fueled by fan and media unrest -- reached ridiculous proportions. Who can forget the "Fire John Idzik" banner that was flown over one of the team's practices?

Three years removed from the Jets, Idzik is flying high with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who will play for the AFC Championship on Sunday.
