Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Anyone else read that Mike Lombardi article on the Jets on nfl.com? He describes Sanchez as requiring the open man on each play to be identified for him: ....He is not a quick reader of the progression, therefore with every call, Schottenheimer has to tell him where to expect the open man. If the call is a bad one, then Sanchez starts to panic and looks nervous. The most effective pass play he runs is the fake handoff, deep crosser, which has no read -- just fake and come out throwing. The more Sanchez has to read off the play, the better chance the play has to break down. Therefore, the Jets must keep things simple. It does sorta make Sanchez sound like the sort of QB a smart wideout would find frustrating. That said, I agree that to go off on the QB in the huddle and stalk out of the game is inexcusable. Cue "Holmes cut by Jets, any interest?" on TBD (edit: Linky ) Wow! if Sanchez is that bad then they will never win with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 Holmes claims he was taken out. No matter, the stuff coming out of NY is pretty damning: “He quit a long time ago,” one Jet, who requested anonymity, said. “He’s a cancer.” http://m.nypost.com/p/sports/jets/captain_hooked_as_jets_go_bust_KahtjGI2FMj5n5LZl6wZPO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Good decision by Ryan to name Holmes a captain in an attempt to get him to care about the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zazie Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Wow! if Sanchez is that bad then they will never win with him. I wish we could find a guy bad enough to get us into the playoffs twice in three years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I wish we could find a guy bad enough to get us into the playoffs twice in three years You think Sanchez is why they make the playoffs?

KD in CA Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I wish we could find a guy bad enough to get us into the playoffs twice in three years Yeah, I'd love to have David Harris, Calvin Pace, Bart Scott and Darrelle Revis too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynical Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Shhhh..they don't know No sense in keeping quiet about it. The Jets seem to know: My link "A league source tells PFT that the Jets are beginning to realize that Sanchez may not be the answer at the position." and "...we’re told that the Jets will quietly explore their options, refraining from dropping any hints until they’re ready to pull the trigger ..." Yeah, I'd love to have David Harris, Calvin Pace, Bart Scott and Darrelle Revis too. Looks like Bart Scott will become available: "Rod Boone of Newsday reports that the Jets will not bring Scott back for another season." Reason: "... his play has steadily fallen off the last two years. He was a part-time player this year, and was not terribly effective."

Interesting, but short of swinging a big deal for a guy like Flynn, I don't think they'll have many other options for 2012. But I could see them drafting someone in the 2/3d round as the future QB.

I didn't watch as many Jets games as usual this year (the Bills were inexplicably on TV almost every week this season) so guess I didn't notice. He's been really good IMO, but may be slowing down after 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 AFCE Blog today: "JESTS are stuck with Mark Sanchez". "Sanchez does some things well. He's doesn't flinch in the clutch and plays his best football in the fourth quarter. He's also very good with play-action passes. Those are some things to build on. But overall, I'm skeptical that Sanchez's ceiling is much higher than what we've seen the previous three years. The Jets are a veteran team built to win now yet has no choice but to stick with Sanchez for at least another season. That is the price you pay for drafting a quarterback in the top five."

Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Shhhh..they don't know Maybe we could franchise SJ then trade him and Fitz to the Jets for Bart Scott and a 4th round pick. After all they only just announced they're cutting Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I wish we could find a guy bad enough to get us into the playoffs twice in three years Wow, and I thought crayonz' argument that Donte Whitner is the reason the 49'ers turned it around this year was foolish, but your statement tops that. Yeah, I'd love to have David Harris, Calvin Pace, Bart Scott and Darrelle Revis too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Yeah, I'd love to have David Harris, Calvin Pace, Bart Scott and Darrelle Revis too. Bart Scott is about to get cut. He's been a situational player and loudmouth. Otherwise, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
