To run the ball they need a RT, a blocking TE, maybe a FB(Conner is no Richardson) and most of all a really top tier RB(nobody we have now fits that description)..it would probably be cheaper to just get Manning for a couple of years.
if anyone thought we were getting Peyton manning after the season that should have ended when we hired Tony Sparano as OC.
Not as long as Haley is still without a job and as long as we don't know if Tom Moore is coming back yet.
lets see three seasons, a winning record and 4 postseason wins --- after Eli Manning's third season (of far less production and success) Same Old Giant Fans were screaming to throw him under the bus too the next season, he won a Superbowl Sanchez will win two or more of them for the Jets before the end of the decade and then "fans" like Deutchland can go back to watching penalty kicks, feigned injuries and red cards
Getting Peyton would crush Sanchez's ego...do you really want that? And what about Sanchez'a 12.5 mil next year can you afford both?
There is absolutely no doubt that Sanchez is history if they get Manning..for the reason you mention and also for cap reasons...no way they could fit both under the cap and anything else they so desperately need.
THIS No way MS is on this team with Peyton. The only way I would be happy with the Jets getting Manning is if Sanchez was behind him but we all know this won't happen. Years 4 & 5 are going to huge developmentally for Mark and he needs to be in front and center. I feel like a broken record cause I keep talking about the same shit. Qbs need time to develop. Not every Qb that comes in the league is Dan Marino or Peyton Manning.
Yeah, but the third year is "suppossed" to be the breakout year or at least you stay the same..to regress like Sanchez did is a warning bell that the Jets have obviously heard..otherwise they wouldn't be discussing his future right now.
People who say no to Manning are fucking clueless. Its as simple as that. Even Manning at 75% of what he was is a qb that is a qb who is a million times better than Mark Sanchez. We are not talking about Matt Stafford, or some other decent qb here. We are talking about Mark fucking Sanchez.
He might if the Jets could return to the running game they had in 2009. Unfortunately they need a lot of pieces to ever get back to that. Without that then you are probably right.
So now Sanchez will win 2+ Super Bowls in the next 8 years? Wow....just wow. Have you actually SEEN Sanchez play? Tell the truth...you're related to him, aren't you?
LOL now its all over ESPN on Sportcenter. They asked Eli and he said hed want Peyton to join the Jets and it would be all fun they can share bunkbeds again.
Unfortunatley, the old days of ground and pound will never win Super Bowl titles in today's NFL. If a team can not succesfully throw the ball downfield, they have no shot whatsoever at winning a Super Bowl title.
I think that the point is that if we had a running game and defense like we had in 2009 that ANY average QB would have a great shot at winning one. Problem is that having both the #1 defense and #1 running game does not happen very often and the chances of us having that again in the near future are not very good. Unfortunately this is what so many Sanchez lovers seem to be counting on happening in order for him to finally win a Super Bowl.
I don't think I would go as far as to say that ground and pound cannot win a Super Bowl in today's NFL. Certainly teams that rely primarily on strong running games can be successful as evidenced by what's happening in this year's playoffs. But you're absolutely right that there is no way a team like that can win if they cannot sometimes reasonably rely on their QB to keep opposing defenses honest and successfully stretch the field.
