no matter how "good" he is in the playoffs he has to be good enough to get there which he is not he was carried to the playoffs and all we asked him to do was not fuck up which he didn't then when we tried to give him the keys he ran the car off the road and keep looking in his rear view mirror when we picked up Tebow off the side of the road
Will you guys at least admit that having the 3 WR's in 2011 be Holmes, Burress, and Mason was an unmitigated disaster ??? I mean....Mason ? WTF...if Rex wanted to bring over Baltimore guys from the Defense, I could understand. Mason was a PITA in the Baltimore locker room...how could Rex not know that ??
^Sure, but those guys arent the reason Sanchez threw two INTs to Miami's nose tackle, or missed Sean Lee/Ninkovich underneath, or threw the pick six at DEN/BAL, and the countless fumbles from poor ball security. Those are all on Sanchez NO excuses, and its those turnovers that cripple this team. You cant give the other team 4/5 extra possessions per game and consistently win! Also, they shipped Mason out the moment he became skeptical of Sanchez. They did everything they could for this guy; he was "coddled" remember? Thats the perception coming from former teammates (Jenkins, Mason, LT, etc). Only his fans claim he wasnt given a fair shake... Ill take the former players' opinions on that one.
add to that the fact that the Jets brought in backups who simply could not play, and it was almost like a conspiracy against competition.
Right. Rex suckered Manning into running the ball more than he should have. And in the Steeler game, second half, Sanchez had an utter fail on the goal line in the second half. Four downs and nothing to show for it. He just does not have it.
That 4 downs of Tomlinson running in goal line situation is stuff that gets you fired. How Schotty survived that was amazing. He not only ran 4 crappy plays, but he didn't even use the short yardage bruising rb in S. Greene. Anyhow that was on Schotty and not Sanchez. The play we remember with Raplisburglar getting out of the on 3 rd down and completing on our vaunted defense. But forget historically bad goal line play calling.
If I was Idzik I would be telling his team we want him to restructure and if he does we will cut him now and he will have a chance to catch on with another team. If he doesn't we will make him the last cut of the summer and he will have no chance of playing this year and maybe ever again if he is forced to sit out.
i hated schotty since favre got here, but holy shit i hold a personal vendetta against the man after that goal line series. one fucking score away from the sb and this asshole runs LT how many times and doesnt give the guy whos been fucking shit up all post season a chance? then the next year we got moore to handle the redzone instead of just getting a new oc? also one of the reasons i am still not giving up on sanchez. the one good coach he had got him to like the best red zone percentage in the league in 2011...
There is no way that Sanchez restructures, nor should the Jets push for it. Every case of restructuring a contract in the NFL invloves making more Guarenteed money in to the contract. That is absolutely the LAST thing the Jets should do. They'd be better of just cutting him than giving him more guaranteed money.
Read what I said again..it will be all about whether he can get another job. If he wants to go through an entire camp only to be cut on the last day then fine he will have that opportunity, they have already said he will compete. If you think he will still be on the roster on opening day I think you are dreaming.
Doesn't matter, Players union won't allow it a reduction in guarenteed money. Just won't happen. Additonally there is no reason for Sanchez to give the money back even if it would be allowed, none. zilch. nadda. Would you give up several million dollars for a "Chance" to be the starting QB of the Jets knowing that if you were cut you'd catch on with another team and get even more money? No? I didnt' think so.
Really...you may be right. It is a small sample. In the history of the NFL, how many QBs have four road playoff wins, in their first two years, You want a larger sample? Okay. How many players in NFL history, beat Sanchez to 30 wins? (4) Yeah the guy clearly sucks.
Dude, get a grip. A first year GM is not cutting a guy making 8 million dollars, and going into the season, with a guy that hasnt played a down in two years, and is 35, and a rookie, coming from the airraid offense. Not Fantasy League. Im pretty sure Idzik wants to remain a GM.
Already been addressed, in 4 playoff wins he contributed a total of 6 TD's, 3 of them in one game, which is the Patriots game of 2010 which is the one game I'll concede the Jets won because of Sanchez. However, the game they lost to the Steelers was lost by Sanchez when he fumbled and it was returned for a TD, which was the Winning margine by Pittsburgh. Sanchez was simply asked not to lose the games, nothing more. in the other 3 wins he averaged under 150 yards a game and less than 1 TD per game. Sanchez came in to a dream situation, he came in to a team that they year before had just missed the playoffs, with the same record they had in 2009 when they made the playoffs. Good QB's make the players around him better, bad QB's make the players around him lesser. Fact is in every measurable stat Sanchez is a bottom 1/5th QB, at best.
Not one nfl team wanted him. Not one. Nobody in their right mind would pay 8+ mill for sanchez. If he is such a phenom, why cant any GM in the NFL see it?
Additionaly the fastest to 30 wins stat is clearly flawed. I just pulled up 4 active QB's who were to 30 wins by their 4th season in the league, and that was just the first 4 I pulled up. Though Granted one of those was Peyton Manning, who had a slow start to his career,but by year 4 had over 30 wins, Sanchez as a starting QB in 4 seasons has 33 wins to 29 losses/
I mean even Delhomme of the Panthers franchise (since you said in NFL history) had 36 wins in the same number of starts as it took Sanchez to get to 33. Delhomme!! Not even a stud QB.
One season, and one stat, does not a career make. It should also be noted that came under the same OC you blame repeatedly for making Sanchez a bad QB. It should be noted that even with that single hight TD number he STILL didn't get to a 2 to 1 TD/InT ratio...aka still BAD.
