Fun stuff on Jetnation, Junc now saying Sandwedge is better than Joe Namath and every other Jet QB.....
sheesh, better them than us. tgg made a great decision giving him his walking papers. remember how he said the board wouldn't exist without him or some dumb shit like that. seems better than ever to me these days. #freestokes
Can we please now have an end to the 'how great Sanchez is' threads and other stuff? He was a backup in Philly to two QB's. he went to Denver all but set to be a starter and lost the job to a late round QB and lost the backup position to this years draftee... He then signed as a backup QB in Dallas as a backup to the backup QB.....
I probably should note he's the backup to the backup in Dallas who is himself a rookie QB and 4th round pick.... And no, I don't feel sorry for Sanchez. I don't hate him, don't have any personal feelings for him but I don't feel bad for him. He got what most college players never get, to play in an NFL game. He got what most NFL players never get, literally 10's of millions of dollars. No, I don't feel sorry for him...it sucks as a fan he didn't pan out but that's life, but I don't feel sorry for him...he got to live the dream....even if in the end he sucked at it...it's still far more than 99.9% of us will ever know, so no, I don't feel sorry for him. What I feel sorry for are the players who get invited to camp, have a good showing but then suffer an injury that ends their career before it started, so close to their dreams and no financial reward to compensate for missing their dream...
for those of you still yearning for more of "my qb" appears some idiot wants him to get a shot as the backup backup in dallas this weekend. http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/new...-romo-mark-sanchez/1jkj3m3nqmdrz1impc4za9sxed
if the jets were smart enough to keep him as the backup to the backup then I would have had no problem with him being on this team. for some reason though, our organization and much of the fanbase thought he was much more than that, and they were all very very incorrect.
He failed all the way to two consecutive AFC championship games including a playoff win vs New England when he had an OL that could block.
come on man, you cant really still believe that after his numerous stops in the nfl and the zero success he has had anywhere other than those 2 years that he was anything more than a ride along passenger. its been proven out that he isn't any good. what 3 times now? and yet you still go back to that? that's like the guys who talk about how great herm was and how we suffered for losing the boob. even though he took the chiefs from 10-6 to 9-7 then 4-12 then 2-14 over his tenure and then went away off into the sunset to the job he probably should have been in from the beginning.
You're right, he's the model of success. That's why he has been on 2 different teams this year and backed up rookies on both of them.
I hear that the Cowboys were gonna move Sanchez to Gatorade pourer/delivery boy, but it didn't work out. Apparently every time there was a rush for Gatorade he would get frazzled: all his pours would miss the cups, he would run around aimlessly, and the few cups of Gatorade had managed to complete he often dropped when he bungled the handoff. He even ran a cup of Gatorade up Emmett Cleary's ass! That was the last straw, so they're looking for a position that requires less skill. Beating Sanchez out for the Gatorade position is 12-year old Chris Porter. Jerry Jones said this about the rookie Gatorade boy, "Porter performed magnificently and that's why he got the job. He can put Gatorade in a cup and he can put the cup in the players' hands. That is more than his competitor could do....". Sanchez had no comment.
