Mark Sanchez named New York Jets starter

[PatsWickedPissah]

I just went over and checked JI 400 posts about Sanchez being named the starter. What a feeding frenzy I love it :rocker:

Were 399 of them by SAR, a major Sanchez ball washer?

I'm sure Rah!Rah! had a post or two about Sanchez's unlimited ceiling. Or other than the fumble and the interception and the inability to produce a single score until garbage time, Sanchez totally outplayed Brady on Thanksgiving Eve.

Spending too much time on the Landing Strip. Kills brain cells same as alcohol. But it was the loss in mid November in the midst of Tebow mania that planted the little seed that failed to sprout in a swamp.

Between that and the Manning flirtation it was almost as if even then they were looking for any alternative. Just can't admit it on the heels of that idiotic contract.

Understandable.

Monday night makes it a long week between games. Us vets (geezers) are allowed one, you young whippersnapper!

It'll happen to me one day too.

I already bought tickets for this game. Since our game is on Monday night, I figured I'd go to jeer the Jesters. Should I wear my Pats jersey?

I'd be disappointed if you didn't

+1 as always.

The season is over, nothing that happens from here on in means a damn thing for Sanchez or McElroy. The opponents are weak, the team has already given up. If anything, another month for Sanchez to bond with Hill, Schilens, Powell, and some of the other new blood helps us next season. Sanchez will be our starting quarterback, so the more work he can get with those three this season helps us get off to a good start next season.

View the next four weeks as an early minicamp and suddenly the Sanchez decision makes a lot of sense.

So... is this guy Sanchez's butt buddy or is he really delusional as he sounds or does he believe Rex Ryan and that Sanchez gives the Jets the 'best chance to win'. Clearly this guy envisions giving Sanchez another year as the STARTING QB of the Jets to prove himself... ROFL. I mean, Wow!

He just doesn't get it. He still thinks Sanchez was getting it done in his first two seasons.

Year - Comp%/TD/INT/QB Rating
2009 - 53.8/12/20/63.0
2010 - 54.8/17/13/75.3
2011 - 56.7/26/18/78.2
2012 - 55.0/12/13/71.4

He's been a bottom tier QB every year of his career, but some Jets fans continue to misconstrue the playoff runs in 2009 and 2010. Sar is one of them.

This is news that should be widely celebrated through PatsNation. May the LOLS continue to be thick and fast.

Who's shocked?

Looking at the competition he has at QB, it's obvious he's gonna start. McElroy was 5/7 for 26 yards, I'm sure if they had called the same plays for Sanchez, he could've made that happen, it's terrible either way you look at it. If the Jets are smart they would run the RB about 30+ times to keep the ball out of Sanchez's hands.

 

[RodThePat]

Mark Sanchez is horrible, but he'll be the Jets QB for the foreseeable future. If they draft a young guy, I wouldn't have any confidence on that coaching staff turning him into a good player. Unless they boot Rex after this season, we have at least 20 more games of the Sanchize left to look forward to.

I just find it funny that whenever people talk about bigtime QB busts, they bring up Ryan Leaf, Jamarcus Russell, Akili Smith...but some guys like Tim Couch and Rick Mirer also come up often on those discussions. And those two were very comparable players to Sanchez, and I'd actually argue Couch was demonstrably better, considering the situation he was in. At what point does Mark Sanchez transcend "below average Jets QB", and starts belonging in the "all time QB busts" conversation? I mean, he already has the buttfumble as his signature play, so that can't hurt.

I forgot, man. I'm sorry. You have my condolences there. :rocker:

"If (Sanchez) throws one INT, it doesn't mean he's going to get benched, necessarily."

Holy crap, just when you think this crazy-bomb has finally exploded it revs up for another round.

He better have a power washer at his disposal because that poor guy (Sanchez) has been wasted. Whatever talents he has have been gutterballed by the boob with the gums that flap in his sleep.
