When Lost on Revis Island...


...What would you bring?

There have been a plethora of receivers this year who have gotten lost on Revis Island. You may have heard of a few. The way Darrelle Revis has played this year, I am still in absolute shock he did not get Defensive Player of the Year honors. I think Charles Woodson's a great player but don't tell me his veteran status did not win him that award.

Regardless, as the Jets get set for their match-up with the Colts to decide the AFC Championship and a spot in the Super Bowl, I thought I would take a look back at some of the receivers Revis shut down, and the one thing they would most likely bring if they were to get lost on Revis Island again.

Chad Ochocinco

2009 vs. Revis (2 games): 2 catches, 28 yards
What he'd bring: Himself...because Chad Ochocinco loves to entertain Chad Ochocinco, and only Chad Ochocinco can keep Chad Ochocinco from eating his own words...twice (translation: he loves himself)



Reggie Wayne

2009 vs. Revis: 3 catches, 33 yards
What he'd bring: Marvin Harrison, pre-gun incident...That way, Revis will have to choose which high-profile playmaker to shut down




Terrell Owens

2009 vs. Revis (2 games): 6 catches, 44 yards
What he'd bring: Trent Edwards and Ryan Fitzpatrick...BECAUSE THOSE ARE HIS QUARTERBACKS!!








Randy Moss

2009 vs. Revis (2 games): 9 catches, 58 yards, 1 TD
What he'd bring: Another slow receiver...to make him look like less of a "slouch"





Steve Smith

2009 vs. Revis: 1 catch, 5 yards
What he'd bring: A quarterback, any quarterback, that throws the ball more often to players wearing the same jersey as him rather than a different one







Andre Johnson

2009 vs. Revis: 4 catches, 35 yards
What he'd bring: A team that is either really good or really bad for him to play on, not one that's always stuck in between








Marques Colston

2009 vs. Revis: 2 catches, 33 yards
What he'd bring: The Hofstra University Football program...because with enough practice against a top-flight cornerback, maybe Hofstra football can play well again and the school will bring the program back



Roddy White

2009 vs. Revis: 4 catches, 33 yards
What he'd bring: A big gift for Mark Sanchez...for allowing the Falcons to stay in that game and eventually win it




Vincent Jackson

2009 vs. Revis: 7 catches, 111 yards
What he'd bring: A congratulatory certificate...honoring him for putting up the best numbers against Revis and the Jets, but he still couldn't help his team pull out a win
