Drew026 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) Just threw another pick in the red zone. I get that most rookie-2nd year QB's can really struggle in this league because of how the adjustment curve from college to the pros, and more because you're on an attrocious team like the Lions Browns or us I guess. But this kid has no excuse being behind maybe the best line in football and having really good skilled position players to work with, and will be the reason the Jets are a wild card team at best this year. Even from watching Hard Knocks, the kid walks around like he's the best QB in the league and just acts way to comfortable and being so buddy buddy with his coaches. /rant.

All I can say is I wish he was on our team with Coach Gailey at the helm to develop him. That's called the "it" factor...Haven't seen anyone have that swagger since Jimbo...

That's called the "it" factor...Haven't seen anyone have that swagger since Jimbo... How do you have an "it" factor when you lead QB's in picks while having the fewest pass attempts of all the starters?
KOKBILLS Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 Honest to God I pray every day for Sanchez to fail in the most epic way possible...I don't think there is any way I can hate a player more than that kid...He's a complete douche...

That's called the "it" factor...Haven't seen anyone have that swagger since Jimbo... There's a difference between having the "it" factor, and being a cocky douche. He's got the "cocky douche" factor.

Perhaps you should re-evaluate your prayer life...just a suggestion.
disco Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 How do you have an "it" factor when you lead QB's in picks while having the fewest pass attempts of all the starters? He's rocking a 34 rating tonight! Woo!
truth on hold Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) He's a carbon copy of Jake the Snake. Pretty good on the roll out with short to intermediate passes, struggles with everything else. Highly prone to inexplicable bone head INTs. Lacks a really big arm to get the ball deep.

bills1960 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 We know all about Sanchez from our first meeting last year.

That's called the "it" factor...Haven't seen anyone have that swagger since Jimbo... The "it" factor has become nothing more than a popular, lazy way of saying you have a gut feeling about someone with absolutely no tangible evidence to back it up, otherwise you'd be rattling off his tangibles, of which Sanchez has thus far shown none in the NFL. By your definition Ryan Leaf, Billy Jo Hobert, Todd Marinovich, etc also possessed the "it" factor... long on bravado, short on results. Kelly would have been the same player even without the mouth because he had the undeniable talent and drive to back it up. And don't tell me about the playoffs last year... a chimp could have handed the ball off with similar results... actually, likely with fewer picks, so possibly with better results.
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 All I can say is I wish he was on our team with Coach Gailey at the helm to develop him. That's called the "it" factor...Haven't seen anyone have that swagger since Jimbo... Actually, it's called the "douche" factor. Jeff George, Jay Cutler (and he has a long way to catch those guys), and JP Losman had it. Considering he had the #1 defense and #1 running game, Sanchez might have had the worst season of any QB ever. Sure he can improve but I've seen nothing but a lot of talk.
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 right-handed Matt Leinart. The "it" factor has become nothing more than a popular, lazy way of saying Probably nothing more than an ESPN buzzword.
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 right-handed Matt Leinart. Probably nothing more than an ESPN buzzword. I take it all back. Sanchez just threw a td against Washington's 3rd stringers. Super Bowl!
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 I take it all back. Sanchez just threw a td against Washington's 3rd stringers. Super Bowl! He's their new Ken O'Brien.

It kills me when people crucify TE, who had an undoubtedly better rookie season (first 16 games he started, actually) in much worse circumstances, and yet they want to bring in someone who has shown less in more favorable circumstances to take his place. Rookie TE on last year's Jets would have flourished based on what he did here when Losman went down.
truth on hold Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 Jets are having a real hard time selling tickets in their new stadium ... they are desperate for exposure and marquee players.
Merle Haggard Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 Sanchez is head and shoulders better than any of the half-talents we have under center. We can only dream that our QBs were "so bad". LOL.

Rookie TE on last year's Jets would have flourished based on what he did here when Losman went down. Of the approximately 96 owners, GMs and head coaches in the NFL, I would bet you $1000 that not a single one of the 96 would choose Trent Edwards over Mark Sanchez as of today (not counting salary, just as a player). It's possible, I guess, that there is some perverted bastard son of Jerry Glanville out there who may choose Trent, but I doubt it. Edited August 28, 2010 by Kelly the Fair and Balanced Dog
