For Jets fans, who haven’t seen their team play an SNF matchup since 2011, the countdown to facing the reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs in Week 4 and Raiders in Week 10 will likely feel like an eternity, albeit one with an exciting build-up with Aaron Rodgers in the fold.

The Jets’ social media team summed up the big news with a play on a now-classic meme centered around a scene from Titanic featuring an older version of character Rose Bukater saying the line, “It’s been 84 years.” Instead of Rose’s memorable quote, however, the Jets echoed the thoughts of fans everywhere by replacing the line with, “It’s been 12 years…”
