Good news! Sanchez has the #1 screw up of the year. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-videos/0ap2000000117285/Best-bloopers-of-2012
depends who we bring in for competition. If the competition isn't better, then Mark's going to be out there again. People think this isn't a scenario. I don't have confidence in a Matt Moore or Alex Smith to beat Mark Sanchez in a QB competition.
I do. Sanchez is done as a Jet, not sure how many more ways it needs to be said. If we're saddled with his huge contract then he rides the bench. But you can be sure that the new GM is going to try everything in his power to make sure Sanchez is A.) cut or B.) riding the pine next year. The QB position is going to be addressed very shortly after the new GM is named.
Three years of Schotty coaching you will do that to you. Just watch the regression of Sam Bradford coming up.
It's amazing how much worse mark was this year and how much worse our O was w/o brian Schottenheimer. Can we stop blaming Brian?
I understand Sanchez is done as a Jet. Alex Smith and Matt Moore aren't that much better. I hope the QB position is addressed with a stop-gap this season. All I'm saying is, if Mark Sanchez is here on this roster during TC with one of those veterans, he's going to win the job because he's the better QB. btw Schottenheimer sucks, he's stinking it up in St. Louis also. Bradford doesn't look nearly as comfortable as the franchise QB of that team. He's getting more money than Mark Sanchez too. I'm glad he's gone no doubt - if we had to take 2 steps back to get rid of him, then so be it.
Junc you are smarter than to look at this team and see that Schotty wasn't the only change. Oh look our starting 2 WRs and starting TE played less than 20 snaps all year together. I think that has more to do with the offense sucking than Schotty. This team had far less talent than Schotty had here recently and Schotty found a way in his best year, 2010, to have the offense put up losses scoring 9,6,3, and 0 points. 4 of our 6 losses came that year because we couldn't break 10 points. In 3 of those 6 losses, the opposing team was held to 10, 9, and 10 points. We lost 1 game all year putting up 20 points or more offensively. Schotty was part of the problem and as we in STL, Bradford and the Rams struggled to put up points this year. In fact they only put up 17 points more than us all year and we were missing our top 3 playmakers on offense most of the year. Rams were also 4th in penalty yardage offensively.
The healthy talent wasn't good but brian was a good OC for us and is doing a good job in SL developing Bradford. Bradford wasn't missing his top 3 playmakers, he only had ONE in the pass offense and that player was hurt this year, missing games and playing hurt. 2011 Jets(actual pts scored, removing D/STs): 343, 21.4 per game 2012 Jets: 244, 15.3 per game 2011 Rams: 175 pts, 10.9 per game 2012 Rams: 262, 16.3 per game
So without ST/D the Rams offense only put up 16 more points than us with Bradford>Sanchez, Jackson>Greene and WR=WR for both teams? Brian being good for us is going to far. He was average for us. And if you want to be honest, we only had 1 playmaker also and Keller was out most of the year with injuries like Amendola. In fact Danny Amendola this year playing 11 games had more but similar amount of yards as Tone did in 16 games last year. I was being nice saying Hill and Holmes are playmakers considering Hill can't catch the ball and Holmes only put up 654 yards last season. Brian was around and couldn't stop the regression of Sanchez throughout Sanchez's 3rd year and Sparano came in and couldn't stop it either. Also you are comparing two bad OCs against each other which is a main point of failure. Sparano and Schotty are both below average and bad OCs. The rams were 25th in ppg, 29th in 3rd% per game, 28th in penalty yards (#1 being lowest amount of penalty yards), 23rd in ypg, 24th in TDs, 21st offense on football outsiders if you like advanced stats, 14 in sacks (1 being lowest amount), and 24th in QB hits (1 being lowest amount). All that screams below average and bottom of the league. The only category they are close to average or above average is sacks allowed Since there are 32 teams, 16 is average and only once did they cross the #16 mark. Now if Schotty stays there and Bradford becomes a great QB and the offense succeeds, good for him. But currently, neither Sanchez nor Bradford are great and those are his two young QBs he had recently. Also factor in Sanchez is 1/3 QBs whose stats have regressed once Schotty left while Favre and Chad have had one of their best years, it will be interesting to see Bradford and Schotty work. I think Fisher will be more involved in the offense than Rex so wonder if that will help or hurt Schotty. All I know is currently, nothing really points to Schotty being anything but average. Average will get you by, but the Jets and Rams needs above average offense especially considerng they invested so heavily in young QBs and seeing them fail is terrible for the team
Rich Cimini I'm writing my season-ending report card and have to name an Offensive MVP on a team that finished 30th in O. Thoughts? #Jets The waterboy?
Isn't Sanchez just the exact opposite of Tebow? Looks great in practice, throws a nice spiral, good throwing motion, projects too cool for school air of confidence. Problem is that he is not accurate at all, can't think his way out of a paper bag or read defenses and has no "it" factor whatsoever. Classic example of a combine all star who has no in-game intangibles. Has never won a thing, has never had to earn anything, and it shows.
