Sanchez lost the Titans game with 2 horrendous turnovers, both completely on him in a "clutch" "big moment" win or go home game. The Cruz play happened in the second quarter. No one's in control of a game in the second quarter in today's NFL.
w/ no one to throw to and twice our O took the lead in that game only to see our "great" D give it right back. We controlled the 1st half, it was 3rd and 9 from the NYG 1. We were going to get the ball near midfield w/ a great chance to score again and go up 10-3 or 14-3, instead we were shellshocked and went in down 10-7. It changed the game and the season for both teams.
Why? Because Sanchez was on a team that won playoff games 3 and 4 years ago? Over a guy who's been over a 60% throughout his career, has eclipsed 4,000 yards multiple times, has won a divisional title. The only folks that contine to support Sanchez are the Jets fans who cling to these 4 playoff wins 3 and 4 years ago like they're evidence of Mark being a good QB.You're killing the defense for Mark's bad "clutch" losses yet are giving them zero credit for those wins either.
No one considered our defense great last year. Great, we controlled the first half. Its a passing league, leads change quickly all the time. If the team was "shellshocked" as you put it, well that falls on Sanchez too. Im surprised someone who's so "clutch" could be so shellshocked over one play. In a clutchity clutch game in December, where players feel more pressure.
Based on your posting history I'd guess the only thing you've ever won is a blender at a bingo night raffle.
blah blah blah. how many times has he hit his te in the back of the head with the football? how many times has he made the rb stop or turn around instead of leading him? the answer is far too often to be an nfl qb. mark sanchez occasionally puts the ball where it needs to be. he tends to do it in spurts. one or two drives in a row and then its doo doo the rest of the game. your bs is just that fantasy bs.
One of those times he hit the TE in the head was Tim Tebow. What does that say about the offensive system to begin with?
Yup, and I wasn't overpaid millions to do it. I also didn't run into a man's ass and fumble the blender, either.
he's never had NE in his division, that's why he has a div title. How did he do in the playoff games after winning div titles? cling to the best 2 year stretch in jets history, I want more of it. I don't want great #s guys that can't win. Do you know how many 99 yd TDs there have been in NFL history? do you know how many happened on 3rd and 9? it's a jolt to any team. It completely changed that game and the seasons for both teams.
I'd be very happy w/ a McNabb who gave his team a chance to win every year, he wouldn't be my #1 choice but I'd take him over many supposed "better" QBs.
guys we've talked about like Rivers, Romo, Schaub, for now Ryan but I think he's going to bust through one of these years, Grbac, Garcia, Bledsoe, etc...
McNabb never busted through and won a SB, if he had made a couple more or won one I'd have him higher but he at least gave teams a chance to get to the SB almost every year. For as great as Peyton manning is and w/ all the talent he has had he's only led teams to 3 title games. That is ridiculous. Brady hasn't been great in postseason since winning 3 SBs in 4 years but he's still made 2 more SBs and 4 more title games.
Playoffs are one and done situations. That's the NFL. Manning is one of the best ever. The NFL is a quarterback driven league but its not the NBA where the better team generally always wins over the course of 7 games. Guys like Manning, Favre and even Warner are going to the HOF, even with some big losses on their resume.
you shouldnt have to choose between good #'s and a qb that wins. if he had better #'s we would win more. its that simple. the 5th overall pick should not be a game manager, he should be a dynamic player that wins games and elevates the play around him.
One of the best ever reg season QBs, he does give his teams a chance to compete every year but he's only won one SB w/ SB caliber talent around him nearly every year. Warner took 2 bottom feeding franchises to SBs, he's on another level. I'd rather have him under C than almost anyone. manning and Favre are both great #s guys and big time chokers.
Not necessarily, how much winning is Rivers doing? Eli won a SB but he's missed 3 of the last 4 postseasons, Schaub has made one postseason(and helped his team make a 2nd),... In a perfect world he'd be putting up #s and we'd be winning b/c of it but if I had a choice I'll take making plays when it counts and winning over padding stats in garbage time. he hasn't been making plays when they count lately either so hopefully that changes this year.
