We dont have a need because youre going into the season, with Hill back to health, holmes back to health,Kerley, and Jordan White who the team seems to like....how many guys are you going to carry at that position? At Te youre going in, with Cumberland,Smith, and Probably returning Rueland, but that would not be a bad draft pickup. But you drafted Hill, last year, Kerley had a long chance to develop chemistry with Sanchz which will only get better when he goes back to the slot, and you basically arent cutting holmes. Making White the expendable player... I could see draftng a TE, but the team has spent alot of time developing Cumberland, and a year bringing Smith along, but hes no spring chicken, so of the two I think a could make sense, its just not panic mode if they dont.
2 shitty years (09,12) 2 average years (10,11) and i'm supposed to believe that the WCO is gonna make a difference? Considering that in 3 of those 4 years the Jets were already using a majority of safe short throws similar to what the WCO is about. I'm so ready to move on from Sanchez it's not even funny. He worked with Pennington last year and this year with Garcia and we'll probably see the same shitty results.
Some of the worst peripheral vision I've ever seen at the QB position in the posted clips. As if he has a blind spot south of the iris or he can't process peripheral movement normally. [youtube]Y88TEkzMx-4[/youtube] Just flat out inaccurate here. [youtube]4Eevaqnhq-M[/youtube]
yeah i think you are right. i think i remember it now. garcia was on the fan with boomer and carton or joe and evan and was offering his expertise to sanchez via the radio. i remember thinking what a great marketing move this one is getting 5 minutes of free radio time for the entire new york area.
Did anyone read the actual quote, or just the headline/thread title? The quote was: "Mark is definitely getting more comfortable speaking the West Coast terminology..." Never does he say that Sanchez is more comfortable with the WCO than previous offenses he has been a part of; simply that he is getting more comfortable with the terminology associated with the WCO
I don't disagree with any of the Sanchez naysayers here. Answere me 1 thing, though.... How can the same guy have such much better accuracy, lack of INTS, in the playoffs...against much better competition....on the road...with more pressure on him ???? Why didn't he make the same bone-head mistakes ? What did he or the Jets do differently (and don't tell me put handcuffs on him, he threw MORE in the playoffs).
in the wco, mcelroy and garrard make much more sense, since both of them have much lower turnovers than el taco loco. hold the fort this year, and either draft a guy this year or next to develop/start. you can't fix everything in just one year/draft.
Jake, I can pick out clips of bad interceptions from any QB including Manning and Brady. Rip on Sanchez but at least be fair about it.
Thats seriously the only reason anybody thinks he can do anything is because of his playoff success. He had two turnover prone seasons, one pretty decent year and a pretty eventful if not very representative rookie year. but he got things done in the postseason. Sure having a good Defense was a big factor, but more importantly he got things done where HE needed to for the most part. He never cost the Jets a game on his own certainly, he never bombed in all 6 of his playoff starts. In fact he played like an NFL QB. If that hadn't happened I don't even think he gets an extension from Mike the Moron. Really thats where Sanchez has something to hang his hat on. I was good when it counted then, whats to say i can't now? lacking Confidence, piss poor reads, and 52 turnovers in 2 seasons do. But playoff success! so maybe theres something?... we're contractually obligated to try and willing to dump at the ready.
At least with Moore gone we don't have to worry about Sanchez running face first into his fat ass again. Sanchez was horrible last year but I am hoping that our new OC can at least make a serviceable backup out of him.
2009 - Cincinnati. Sanchez threw the ball 15 times. 2009 - San Diego. SoCal and Sanchez threw the ball 23 times and not that well. 2009 - Indy. Dome and and Sanchez threw the ball 30 times with mediocre results. 2010 - Indy. Sanchez threw the ball 31 times for mediocre results. 2010 - New England. Sanchez threw the ball 25 times but very well. 166 yards on the day was good enough to beat Brady, how often has that happened? 2010 - Pittsburgh. Sanchez threw the ball 33 times for decent results. In 6 games in the playoffs Sanchez has been over 200 yards twice. The Jets have not won a game in which Sanchez had to pass for 200 yards yet. Winning makes everybody look better.
At the end of the day, plays needed to be made. Sanchez provided signature plays in each and everyone of those games win or lose. When we signed up for Sanchez, didn't we believe he had to be part of the team, not the team himself? Mediocre stats I agree 100%, but he made plays that the league's best QBs couldn't do that day. 3rd down TD to Keller in the Chargers game, those were big plays and momentum changers.
No doubt, that's not the point. It's about his peripheral vision and anticipation, I believe I commented on it. You don't see most NFL QBs missing the guy underneath that badly, that often. Look at those picks, those are absolutely dreadful DECISIONS. It highlights his problem: his anticipation is terrible and he's also pretty goddam inaccurate. Those are some atrocious mis-reads that you don't see most starters in this league making and he doesn't have the production to justify occasional misfires like those that some other QBs may have.
Yeah, those 2 playoff runs are really a smokescreen when you realize that Sanchez's stats were below average in those games. Sanchez's career has been consistently mediocre to poor. The only reason he is still a Jet is because of those 4 road playoff wins. And it's not like any of those wins got us to a Super Bowl.
Sanchez was efficient in limited opportunities but all 4 wins were on the defense. 4 games, 65 pts allowed, no games allowing more than 21 points allowed. That's 4 wins unless the offense blows chunks which it did not
