Matt F***ng Flynn, hasn't thrown 150 passes in the NFL, and has no Playoff experience, let alone victories, and a quick look at his stats, seems to ond ate he's payed mostly in Mop up duty. Hell he's never attempted mre than 40 passes in a season. Seattle over valued him, so we should make the same mistake? Which would be repeating the mistake you all complain the Jets made by drafting Sanchez at 5, and at least Flynn played under McCarthy. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/F/FlynMa00.htm The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. And his rating is skewed by his last year n SD. A whopping 33 of 49, I coud find 2 games in any Jets season where mark accomplished that. Like weeks 11 and 12 this year, where he was over 70 pct in both games. On more attempts. The Matt Flynn talk is ridiculous...
After RG3 injury you better be ready to give up a lot more than a 1st round pick to get Kirk Cousins. They've got him on a rookie contract so they're not even taking a cap hit with Cousins.
Well here is your other option. You basically say screw next season. Draft the best defensive guy available, lose Revis, cut Sanchez when the season ends and go back to square 1. The trade at least offers you a way to salvage the team and prevent a complete and total rebuild. But if you'd prefer that, be my guest.
Trading for Alex Smith or Matt Flynn doesn't prevent a complete and total rebuild, it just sets the process back a couple of years while it becomes clear that neither of those guys has any real play value except on an elite team.
Not my poll,nor can I account for the irrationality of people overvaluing him, just because Seattle did.
The team would be better off long term keeping the #9, trading Revis for whatever picks, and holding Sanchez for another year and then cutting him.
In another year you may not wish to cut him. Losing a high pick like that sets you back years. The team is better off rebuilding him. You don't want this pick to turn into Gholston, who was never going to be a player. Sanchez has shown that he can be a player....albeit eight now a flawed one. With MM here, you try to find a stud WCO style runnin back...and spend all your time working on his short passing and screen game.
If he can be rebuilt. If he doesn't show improvements next year, it's better to start the restart process one year earlier than later.
That's why we are bringing in competition this year and he's going to have to prove he can be rebuilt by winning the starting spot.
and if Sanchez starts tearing up the league would you concede that MM is the reason for Sanchez success?
90% of the QB's succeed because they have great people around them and great coaching and an excellent plan designed to bring out the best in them. Jon Gruden pointed out something that was obvious near the end of the season when he said that every team he'd been around had done everything in their power to promote the QB because if you don't have a QB you have nothing.
Good point. We are setting up ourselves for two paths, place holder QB until next draft or Sanchez improving as QB for next draft. Two paths, instead of everything being tied to Free Agents QB A or Mark Sanchez. Let's hope the OC part is true.
