I'll remember Mark as a scared boy among men. Also the flinch at wideout and the ASSFUMBLE!!!!!!!! Good luck, USC trash.
A guy who won 4 playoff games for the Jets, had a bright future, and a franchise completely squashed that within 2 years.
I don't think Mark's ceiling was as high as people thought it out to be, even Pete Carroll said that Sanchez was not ready for the NFL and that he should not have left early. Over the past two seasons we saw why. The franchise didn't make Sanchez make stupid plays or dumb decisions. The franchise also did not make Sanchez throw the ball at his receivers feet.
Sanchez was the product of a talented team who had the #1 run offense and #1 defense. The fact that the coach had a tight leash on him. And all the talent around him. He had a CB who shut down every opponents beast WR. Put all that together and almost any QB in the league would have had success. He only managed to sneak into the playoff's with those teams. So without a few breaks, Our talented 2009 squad almost missed the playoff's if not for a gift from the colts.I would say in 2010. He had his best season with again a good run game and a stacked defense. Eli , ben , rodgers and brees all won SB's even if there team did not show up. No excuses.
promise, hope and brief period of excitement..... ultimately ending in disappointment for various reasons much like Richard Todd Ken O'Brien Chad Pennington sad part is Sanchez had more big time moments than any of them :shit:
Quit riding Sanchez. He built his own coffin and now he must lay in it. Go follow Nacho to his next team if you love him so much....
Did Sanchez die or something? With his contract, it's entirely possible he'll be back next year, even if the team does draft or trade for a potential replacement.
Right, he got bad all on his own......lousy asst coaches and losing 3 of his 4 WR's from 2010 didn't hurt at all.
You might want to adjust your last sentence. Big Ben rode top defense and run game his first year. Remember that Super Bowl with Randle El throwing a TD pass and the refs working for Pitt? Eli put up 21 and 17 in both Super Bowls while his defense turned one of the best QBs ever into nothing. The game before Eli's 2nd Super Bowl, he put up 17 points, 2 resulting on ST teams turnovers. The playoff game agaisnt ATL, ATL was held to 0 points and stopped on multiple 4th and 1s. Yeah Eli didn't need his defense. Rodgers, funny how Rodgers won the Suepr Bowl the year he went 9-0 and his run game and defense were real good. Remeber thE Super Bowl they picked off Big Ben and set up a very easy 7 for that team. Should I keep going, because they decimated the run game and Rodgers went 15-1 in the regular season then 1 and done in the playoffs. Heh, the one year Drew Brees won the Superbowl there was an onside kick recovery, a pick 6 in the Super Bowl. The game before thye sealed the game by forcing fumbles on Peterson multiple times and picking Favre off multiple times. Should I go on? The biggest misconception in football is that QBs won Super Bowls by themselves with no help. If you actually look at it, most of the time the Qb was one who didn't perform to their best ability and the rest of the team picked them up. Now none of that goes against your first point which is Sanchez did not raise the talent of his teammates. But the big misconception is that QBs don't get help and win the super bowl. It works like that in the regular season, btu come playoff time, the QB needs the help. It's no coincidence that once the Patriots lost that talented D, they haven't won a Super Bowl. It's no coicidence that the one time the Colts defense played real well Peyton won his Super Bowl. You need QB play alone to be successful in the regular season, you need QB play and defense/ST to win in the postseason.
I'll remember the first pass he threw in a Jet uniform. At his own ten yardline in the first pre season game, he dropped back, looked the safety off left, and fired a forty yard strike down the right sideline. It almost seems from that point on Rex Ryan and his band of incompetents worked to insure sanchez's failure, and they appear to have succeeded
i won't eulogize him but sanchez will be known as the qb that brought the swag, recognition, and jazz back to the jets qb position one of the main reason for namath's legacy is his off the field stuff and the way he carried himself. we definitely had a lapse in spotlight and that broadway type of hollywood style from our qb with guys like pennington and vinny. sanchez lit that torch again
How come somebody can't show support without it being considered "riding somebody"? Sanchez is a product of a terrible franchise. He has/had the tools to be an extremely successful NFL quarterback but the franchise did nothing to help him. He's been extremely lackluster this year and his decision making as been god awful. But he has had pretty much a new wide receivers corp each year he's been here and the team has deteriorated exponentially around him since his arrival. He was part of two AFCCG teams in 4 years and played well enough that if our defense held up we should've been in the Super Bowl. Put players around him and he will succeed.
On top of that we had as many good memories as bad with Sanchez. If someone chooses to remember the good, they are "riding somebody"? Makes no sense.
Exactly.....he played OK/Well/Good in ALL 6 playoff games. It was Rex's D that blew the 2 AFC CG's, not Mark.
