if Ainge can't get past Clemens, what the fuck makes you think he's capable? What the fuck is with this fanbase and 3rd string QBs? Stop it.
3 ints, and three fg drives all day... is terrible.... plus this secondary was 10 times worse than tampa bay's... sanchez could do nothing... oh yeah the 1 pretty pass--- for the td with a no name covering edwards and no safety help was clearly the one highlight
^ 3rd INT doesn't happen if those FGs go through. Doesn't anyone get it? That's the plan - get a TD, couple of FGs, and let the D keep the Falcons out of "winning it at the end" range.
when you have 50 million invested... we will never know what ainge can do....all i know is the 20 ints for even a rookie qb is terrible.... plus we hardly let him throw...he would have at least 35 if he threw 450 or more attempts
ANyone expecting this O with a rookie QB was going to be good this year is ridiculous. The way this season is playing out we only needed them to be good enough which is what we got Sunday and most of the season. 16 points would have been more than good enough, we would have coasted to a victory. The 3rd INT would have never happened, it should never have come down to Sanchez leading a desperation drive with less that 2 minutes left. Sanchez made some key plays in this game that got us into position 4 times and we came away with zero points due to STs and stupid penalties.
We will never know what Ratliff will be either! We should bring back Ray Lucas and Brooks Bollinger while we are at it. Stop the bullshit. He's a 3rd stringer for a damn reason. You think that some miraculous godlike QB is waiting behind Sanchez, waiting for him to be a bust so that Ainge can walk in a be the next Joe Namath. I can't stand that mentality anymore. If Ainge was ready he'd be past Clemens on the depth chart. Rex owes Clemens nothing.
the plan is not turning the ball over.... i remember when chad would throw 2 ints ... it was the end of the world... or vinny.... this guy is doing it every game and rex is too damn stubborn to bench him ... even for a damn series...
okay. The fact that I hear "the Falcons secondary is covering the Jets receivers very well today" and then they show the replay and not a single receiver is getting separation, then something is wrong. I'm going by the tape they showed me. No high percentage throws, no backs in the flats or Keller running a quick out to gain 5-8 yards to let the running game punch it through. Schotty's time and place playcalling is awful. Its never slant routes and quick outs that most QBs can complete. Its a lot of throws to the middle of the field and the seam. Much lower percentage throws. Its not about ball control with Schotty, and its made worse by Sanchez's ball control problems. I shouldn't have to spell this shit out when I'm watching the same game as everyone else. but its okay - Ainge will come in and fix everything.
go ahead, crack the confidence and put a worse QB in. Clemens lost the game anyway - he couldn't get a fucking snap down.
hey i am ready to try anything right now.... fricken brady came in when bledsoe was injured and look how that turned out... the fact that sanchez needs color coded cards to tell him how to play football is so funny..... he reminds me of heath schuler -- all talent but no brains
what fricken confidence.... he needs some damn smelling salts to wake up...he has been rattled for like 7 games... now i know u are grasping for straws when u blame it on the snap...... over 3 ints lol
Another Tom Brady reference... here's what no one knows about Brady - he shot up the depth chart in one season and the coaches knew what they had in him. He was projected as a 3rd round pick and if he went in the third no one would even bring his name up. The fact that you want to try anything makes me think you think this year matters in terms of winning it all. Its transitional year. Take the fucking lumps and get over it. Flacco and Ryan ruined the learning curve. 2008 was the exception for what is supposed to go on with a rookie.
Now I know you didn't watch the game or have no deductive reasoning skills. You obviously don't get it that its 16-10 and the game is over if the special teams did their job. Do you need a chart?
ainge was projected as a third rounder too... and yes i knew brady shot up the chart because i am reminded every time i watch that super bowl year on nfl network
Manning had 100 ints in his first 5 years. He had 28 his first year, and 23 his fourth year. Manning was first overall, although he had more TDs to go along with those 100 ints. Stafford has 20 ints in 10 games compared to Sanchez's 20 in 13 games. Freeman has 14 in his 7 starts. Sanchez is as consistent rookie QB as any other rookie QB in the NFL. And please, I am not comparing Sanchez with Manning, just giving you something to think about. Let it go. He's a rookie and you have to put up with it.
You think if we had Kevin Faulk and Wes Welker, guys you can actually check down to who are wide open within 10 yards of the LOS on every play Sanchez might have less INT's. Which player do the Jets have on O who can actually take a swing pass, catch a screen and do something with it, get open out of the slot on a 3 step drop?
I wonder how bad Sanchez has to crap the bed for some of the MS homers here to put down their pom poms. 16 points, even if the Jets made all those FG's? You realize the Jet D leads the league in least points allowed, and that number is 15.6? You only score 16 points, you're not going to win many games in the NFL. Meanwhile the Atlanta passing D is ranked 30th in the league. And here's another one - before Sunday, they had a total of 8 interceptions the entire year. In one game MS gave them another 3. Wow. It's not like Sanchez was playing a great D. They were begging the Jets to try and beat them in the air. Why? Because they know he will try to throw into double coverage, no matter how many int's he's thrown already. "He's only a rookie!" A rookie who is still making the same mistakes over and over and over, showing no improvement whatsoever. "Yeah, but the Jets would have won if only Clemens...." Well, not really - they might have merely gone to OT to watch MS throw another interception. This tendency, or more accurately persevering practice, of throwing the whole rest of the team under the bus, demanding no one else makes mistakes, so that maybe the average level of mistakes MS makes can be overcome, and a win squeaked out, is not persuasive or compelling in any respect. It is first of all completely unrealistic. But if for whatever reason you don't want to put any real blame on Sanchez, perhaps it makes you feel better. The rookie defense doesn't amount to much either if he can't show improvement over the course of the season. I thought the reason he was being played was to get experience and thereby improve. Well he hasn't.
I really wish there was a way I could find what all the Colts fans were saying in their forums during Peyton Mannings rookie season while he was throwing his 28 picks. This guy is going nowhere, he sucks, he'll never amount to anything, he's color blind, he's not getting any better. Rookie QB's generally don't play very well people. I also happen to recall another Manning that was getting thrashed right here in New York and then ended up winning a Super Bowl. I't takes time people, not saying Sanchez will end up being great, but way too early to make any judgement on the guy...just freakin relax...
