    Ok, it seems to me like Sanchez always does a PA fake regardless of situation, even if the HB is not even on his correct side, or already passed him. When he does this he takes his eyes off the D.

    You think Schotty is maknig him do a PA fake every single time or is this just something he likes to do?

    Also, Sanchez will get called for a false start one of these days when he does a hard count and bobs his head down trying to draw teh D off-sides. He's lucky no ref has flagged him for it yet. Seems as if he should be coached not to do taht.

    So you see nothing wrong with a PA fake on 3d and long?

    What's with all the handing off too.


    I hate the way Mark hands the football off, it's stupid and completely pointless.




    PA passes are key for a run heavy offense, it should've worked in last weeks first play.

    Bitching about every little "nuance" that has to do with Sanchez is what bothers me.....yeah, he's having problems with his play and his confidence....WE GET THAT. Let the kid take his lumps.


    what's next on the thread agenda......Sanchez folds his toilet paper instead of "crumpling" before he wipes his ass?

    more great responses to a thread. no wonder all the threads turn into turds.

    streetfighterjet alot of times its a timing thing. the routes dictate that he needs to take a 5 or 7 step drop and as part of that needs to make a play action fake. if he changes the way the play is designed it will completely throw off the timing of the drop and throw.

    not that he really ever sets his back foot and throws but that is the idea i have been told about why play action fakes when its 3rd and 9.

    it does look rather retarded when the back goes the other direction though.

    and dont bother listening to the meatheads, they want to jump on every thread they can to make themselves feel cool or something.

    Oh hey an intelligent response, go figure :)

    Yeah I mean, my main issue is where he does the fake to the wrong side, or where he does a half ass fake to a HB that has already run by him... heck I'm worried that the ball will get knocked out of his hand by accident one of these days :)

    Maybe those were plays designed for Leon and he's just trying to pay a tribute... you know, like a homage to a fallen team mate.

    If I'm not mistaken he HAS been called for the head bob on the hard count. But you're right his PA action doesn't fool anyone it should come with time.
    Also, what’s with all the bitching about threads? MBGREEN, If you don't like what someone has to say ignore the thread its that simple. I’m getting sick of your little hall monitor syndrome on every thread. The author specifically wanted to talk about the PA effectiveness and I don't think he's remiss so leave him the fuck alone.

    Is Sanchez coachable?
    That's the question I have.

    I'm not too worried about his bathroom habits yet....

    One more thing to add...
    I'm not a huge Farve fan but man he was good at the pump fake and play action. Let the kid watch some Farve and Big Ben footage two master fake out artists at work.

    I don't recall him being flagged for it, I remember commentators talking about it at one time, but if he has been flagged for it and is still doing it then that's not good. Coaches should be on him for that... I guess as a rookie you have a lot of things to deal with at once :)

    In all seriousness, is it possible that a play is drawn up for play action but the back sees a blitzer coming hot and goes for the block instead? Alleycat brings up a good point about the timing though, I never thought of that.

    You know what you're right...it was the commentators talking about it just recently. I'm sure he's aware of it and working on it. I still feel good about Sanchez and he's actually not my major complaint with the team.

    If you ask me the thread has already proven it's worth by inciting discussion on the intricacies of the PA. My opinion is that I would love to have the discussion not get hijacked every time a thread doesn't live up to you standards. You've already stated in other threads EXACTLY what you stated in this one. Now, who's guilty of clutter? Leave it alone and let us talk about the play action or I'll find a forum that’s not full of whiney little bitches that need to chime in on every time they need an ego boost. Sorry dude, not trying to be a dick but this is the third thread I would like to be involved in and talk about the authors point. Three time today….I just want to talk with fellow frustrated Jets’ fans without answering to the ‘REAL’ fans because they feel the thread is full of the same ol’ posts. I got news for you. NOT MUCH ELSE TO TALK ABOUT IN JETS WORLD RIGHT NOW.

    And who are you to determine weather a subject fits the criteria of a "quality discussion"?

    Clearly the fact that Sanchez performs a PA Fake in scenarios where it seems useless, is not something that interests you, so having said that, GTFO!

    Thanks!

    My point was simple. Watch some of his PA fakes... while some of them are very good, a lot of them on 3d and long are some lazy fake hand off without even looking at the HB. NO ONE is going to fall for it, so why do it? I wouldn't mind it as much if he didn't take his eyes off the defense, but he does, and I can't imagine that being a good thing in any way shape or form.
