    Yea but kid already has problem with the other knee from college. He was wearing double braces at one point this season. I recall a long long time ago Joe Namath pictured himeself as a potential broadway star. He did a play at the Jones Beach Theater outdoors and it was damp out. His knees were so bad they set up chairs, tables, rails etc. for him to lean on and he moved around the stage only to grab onto next thing to hold him up. It was really sad to see. Sanchez is 23 I want good kness, at that age unless you are a $2 dollar hooker you should have good knees.

    Wonder how PSL sales are this week. If we were SB bound they would be ringing off hook, now it is off-season and QB is getting knees checked out.

    Sanchez has right knee examined

    NEW YORK (AP) -- Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez had his right knee examined by Dr. James Andrews, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Thursday.

    Sanchez was in Birmingham, Alabama, on Wednesday to visit Andrews, but it was not immediately certain if the quarterback will need surgery. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not commented publicly on Sanchez's visit.

    Sanchez missed one game after suffering a mild sprain of the posterior cruciate ligament against Buffalo on Dec. 3 in Toronto. He didn't make the trip to Tampa Bay on Dec. 9 and was replaced by Kellen Clemens. Sanchez returned the following week against Atlanta wearing a brace, and had no apparent signs of injury during the last several weeks of the season.

    He helped lead the Jets to the AFC championship game at Indianapolis, and played some of his best football during the playoff run. After throwing 20 interceptions during the regular season, Sanchez had just two in three postseason games and fell a win short of becoming the first rookie quarterback to play in the Super Bowl.

    Sanchez was injured when he dived headfirst on an 8-yard run early in the third quarter against the Bills. The play came a few days after coach Rex Ryan brought in Yankees manager Joe Girardi to help teach Sanchez how to improve his sliding technique.

    Sanchez also banged up his left knee against Carolina on Nov. 29.

    The fifth overall pick last year out of Southern California, Sanchez finished the regular season throwing for 2,444 yards and 12 touchdowns, but had a dismal 63.0 quarterback rating.

    Armed with a color-coded system and numbered plays on his wrist to help him, Sanchez's ball security improved dramatically down the stretch. He finished the playoffs going 41 of 68 for 539 yards with four touchdowns and a 92.7 rating.

    Sanchez also joined Baltimore's Joe Flacco as the only rookie quarterbacks to win two playoff games.
