The owners of this QB camp should sue the writer of this article for associating them with Mark Sanchez. 15 years and all they produce is the "Buttfumbler". Chapter 13 is in their future.
Here are some of the major tweets I've seen the past couple days. Albert Breer @AlbertBreer 4h Mark Sanchez looks really good, again. And Zach Ertz is gonna be a problem for opponents. Zach Berman @ZBerm Aug 10 Chip told Mark Sanchez at halftime he answered any questions about his arm after a Hail Mary traveled 68 yards in air. Chip: "He's back." Eagles Insider @EaglesInsider · Aug 12 Jeremy Maclin put on the jets up the seam for a TD past Kyle Arrington from Mark Sanchez. Cian Fahey @Cianaf Aug 10 Mark Sanchez's high release on that throw to Ertz stands out. Don't recall him throwing the ball that way in past. I will post some more, but it appears fans truly believe Mark has a chance to start if Foles struggles. All indications is that he's not the same player as 2012 and appears his confidence is coming back in a big way. Chip is amazing.

Whether you like the guy or not, that blurb about being hurt the last two years was pretty interesting. A bit convenient in terms of timing but still interesting. It sounded more like they (or he) just didn't want to operate while the arm was still functional and the labrum wasn't fully torn. We can complain about Rex putting him in the last preseason game last year but it seemed in hindsight that his labrum was a ticking time bomb regardless. I do think there's a possibility you see a 180 degree turnaround from Sanchez in Philly if he ever plays, because Chip Kelly >> Schotty and >>> Sparano/Rex in terms of offensive accumen. Too bad Marty came in a year too late to possibly salvage Sanchez here.
Foles puts up the greatest TD to turnover ratio in the history of the NFL in Chip Kelly's system. Mark Sanchez looks better than he ever has in his career in Chip Kelly's system. It must be that the QB's are great, not Chip Kelly's system.
Im on record stating that Foles numbers were legit, he was the one throwing the ball. I cant say a system turned a QB into one of the best QB single seasons we have ever seen. Foles always had potential, and so did Sanchez, so its no surprise Sanchez is doing good for me at least.
I always knew once Mark Sanchez was out of NY he would play better. i dont know any QB that could even play half decent when your WR's ran lazy routes, RB's that ran right into the O-line for little to no yards per carry, and a whole right side of the O-line was pretty much invisible...and on top of that sanchez is still sanchez.. I liked the kid.. but this had to end
Foles is a good QB, but his numbers last season were an anomaly. point is there is nothing to jump to conclusion about Sanchez based on his performance in a system that seems to make every QB look good, college and pros.
That is not true, if he goes out on the field and plays good, then hes playing good. It doesnt matter what system he is in, he is getting paid to compete against the best players in the world. Defenses ARE allowed to stop him. And saying "every" QB is a bit of a stretch, you cant use college as an example, so far we have seen Mike Vick and Nick Foles in it. Mike Vick didnt look better, Foles did, but Foles might just be good. Perhaps the media should have hyped Foles the same way they did Luck and RG3, so there wouldnt been as much of a shock factor when he went crazy last season.
no, it certainly is true. if a QB plays horrible in one system and great in another, there is clearly an issue of the systems in each case being a significant factor in his play. that doesn't discredit the QB for the good play, it is simply honest context of his play.
That doesnt matter though man, the numbers he puts out on the field are the numbers you have to judge him by. Right or wrong?
Now let's see if that system is effective over time in the playoffs against the best teams in the NFC. It sure does look good on paper, though. The Eagles have a pretty tough regular season schedule as well.
right if you have your head in the sand and want to ignore the totality of his career numbers. it is wrong if you grasp the concept of context. by your logic if a shitty player has a great season he must be a great player. Derek Anderson comes to mind. is he a great QB because he had one great year, despite the rest of his career numbers, or is he an average to bad QB that had one great year? what do you judge Derek Anderson by, solely his one great statistical season, or the totality of his career? if the latter, why don't you apply that same practice to Sanchez?
Ill admit the X and O philosophy behind the offense does give them an advantage, but you have to keep in mind the QB still has to make the passes. Peyton Manning was in a system last season that allowed him to break all sorts of records, he is not getting those numbers without that system that was created by the brains of Adam Gase. The bottom line though is he put up those numbers and he shouldn't have to apologize if the opposing defenses have not caught up, thats not his fault and I refuse to discredit either Foles or Peyton.
Again if Sanchez goes out there and wins the Super Bowl then it doesnt matter if it was the system or not, NO ONE will discredit him if he does that. (and if they do then they are just stupid)
I doubt the system overpowers the Seattle defense. The Broncos offense was similar because it took advantage by using a very fast pace but Seattle just stopped it right in its path. And why is everyone saying Fole's numbers were fake yet no one is saying Peytons were? If Foles numbers were fake then so was Peytons because Peyton NEVER threw 55 TDs, never threw that many yards.
No its not a stupid post, when did Peyton work in an offense that put up 55 TDs, 5477 yards. Point me to the season where he put those numbers up please, ill be waiting.....
