Kids young he will learn, I hope. He did lose us this game but the older guys didn't help our cause. Way to many fucking penalties.
I agree. I remember when Peyton was just starting he threw a bunch of INT's. AND HOW ABOUT HE BROTHER ELI. SOME OF THESE GUY WOULD HAVE BENCHED HIM. NEXT THING YOU KNOW ELI'S GOT A RING.
Peyton Manning threw for over 3700 yards and for 26 TDs his rookie year. You seriously think there is a comparison to Sanchez? Why do you morons always bring up Peyton Manning? That's like comparing Shonn Greene to Barry Sanders. Of all the QBs to pick, you idiots always pick the one that probably did the most his rookie season, playing on a crappy team that was 1-15 the season before and had nothing around him. Peyton threw 28 INTs, but he also pretty much threw for 2 TDs and 200+ yards a game too. You're going to take that with a rookie. Why can't you people bring up Big Ben or something instead. Sanchez is doing worse than him too, but at least it's closer and Ben has won SBs. Or maybe the other Manning, he had a lot of problems and did struggle, although I think he was okay that first year iirc. NY always goes to extremes on these things. Fortunately for Sanchez, I am pretty sure the media is going to be too focused on the Giants losing to notice Sanchez sulking. He needs to fix that attitude ASAP and put some serious time into fixing his problems. What the hell is this guy doing.
I'm sorry but anyone trying to say sanchez hasn't cost us W's is a fool, there is a way to develop a qb, this isn't it, idk how this kid is going to rebound his confidence is destroyed everyone saw him sitting on the sidelines paying more attention to not crying than winning. I'm not saying clemens is the answer, but many members of this board begged for a veteran free agent qb to come in and give sanchez time. As far as the win now aspect, look at the window for the talent on our team, its not very long, we have talent now and no depth, no draft picks, we have 3 yrs tops to get something done before we're back to "rebuilding", so we sit wait for sanchez to develop and then we're gonna end up bitching he has no talent around him. I love this team as much as anyone, but the blind faith and excuses for #6 by fans and media alike are retarded, you name me another qb that could have possibly played worse. If we want to be more than a .500 team this year there needs to be a change on offense.
The problem with Sanchez being named the starter this year is that it was done under the premise that the Jets were a playoff caliber team and Sanchez was expected to be good enough to take them there. That is putting a TON of pressure on the kid. On the contrary, Stafford is starting in Detroit for a team that won 0 games last year and is not expected to do anything for at least one more year. It's interesting that as bad as the Bucs are, they haven't started Josh Freeman yet. The thing you have to worry about is that with the fans and media being so brutal in this town, is Sanchez going to be looking over his shoulder next year and terrified to make mistakes?
He got off to such a good start that people forget he's a rookie. He bounced back aftyer the NO game and I expect he'll bounce back again. he was as bad as a QB could be yesterday. I'm more concerned w/ him handling the elements than being mentally tough enough to bounce back from a bad performance. He's obviously going to have to get adjusted to the weather he'll be playing in most of his career.
Let's not forget this is the first time in his life he loses 2 or more games in a row. It's hard to learn how to handle a loss if you have never done it before... but he'll learn how to cope with it and he'll get back stronger.
Now you've hit on a really important point. Sanchez is still a kid and yeah, he'll be hearing the fans on talk radio and in the streets as I doubt they'll keep the kid sequestered until the flight to Oakland. If he's gonna play in the NY/NJ area, he'd better drop that "I think I want my momma" look off his face and grow a pair really f'n quick. He's not in SoCal anymore and east coast folks work too hard and pay too much to watch their QB look like he wants to cry on TV. He's the face of the franchise and he looks like he wants to go home on the bench and at the press conference?? That's BS and unacceptable. Sanchez will have to grow up real quick or else this area will turn him into an emotional wreck ala Vince Young. Ryan had better let the kid know that he's not immune to criticism nor is he bulletproof as far as taking a seat for a game or two. If benching is all it takes to crush Sanchez' ego, then that kid is playing in the wrong town.
Can you imagine being 22 years old and playing on this stage in front of millions of people every week? Yeah, I know he's supposed to be a professional and he's paid lots of money. Just sayin'....
Concerning the weather, did you guys think it had much of an impact on his terrible performance? It seemed like mostly poor decision making to me.
My contention is if they felt Sanchez was ready to throw into the fire throw him in. If not he shouldn't be thrown in. That doesn't mean he isn't going to stink the joint up some times. That means does he have the ability and the make up to handle the learning process? Management made a decision that he was ready. I think they have to live with it or shut him down completely for the year right now. It's not a question of blind faith, it's a question of how good do you think this team is with a B QB. I don't think it's all that good others apparently think this is a SB team with a veteran backup who manages the team. If Sanchez is the guy and I think he has shown some nice ability it's going to take 2 to 3 years for him to step up and lead and put the other pieces in place to make this a real contender.
The CS knew that when they named him the starter. They knew this kid only played ONE season and never in cold weather when they drafted him. The Kid also had to have some idea what he was getting himself into when he decided to turn pro. If he didn't, then his parents failed him in that regard. Sorry, but this isn't romper room nor is it pop warner. He's in perhaps the biggest fishbowl in the NFL outside of Dallas, TX. If he's not ready for the big stage emotionally, then sit him until he is. Looking at his face on Sunday made me really rethink the entire Sanchez experiment. I'm not sure Pete Carroll was entirely wrong about Sanchez. He is still a baby. Playing QB in NYC NFL franchises is no place for babies..
He said it wasn't the weather in the PC, but who knows if he was just saying that in an effort to be seen as a stand up guy.
And apparently you have no clue of how to evaluate talent. The guy has great mechanics, has made SEVERAL 40+ yard throws for completions, and went 3 weeks as a leader on 3rd down. He brought the lead back in Miami 3 times.....3 times. He got the lead back in Tennessee. Those are all traits of success as an NFL QB. You need to go watch ping pong or something.
