Sanchez a joke? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=47744.msg1051369#msg1051369

Is mark sanchez a joke to the NFL? Would starting Tebow have been better? Explain why or why not. Also, is rex ryan really a good coach and maybe should have benched sanchez sooner? Is Rex ryan part of the problem?

Your thoughts, comments.......sly remarks? :(

General football fan here.

Ryan is a terrible head coach, as far as I can see. He's much better suited to being a DC. Why they fired Sparano after one year, who took over an insanely bad offense that clearly needed more than one year to reset, instead of Ryan is beyond me. If he doesn't make the playoffs this year, or prove that he can be a effective head coach, he needs to be gone.

As for their QB situation, there's a point where a player has to be benched. I wouldn't call Sanchez a 'joke', since he did have several good moments earlier in his career, but he's still not great either. He should have been benched pretty early this last season, and Tebow should have been put in for a large role, being the proclaimed backup. Tebow may have greatly struggled in Denver, but he showed flashes of having potential, and that deserves a better look than he got in New York.

The Broncos shouldn't have gotten rid of him anyways, because he's a utility player and a viable backup, but that's a side rant.

They've also signed David Garrard, and are bringing in Kevil Kolb. That's four QBs who have both struggled in their careers to at least some moderate degree, and then you have McElroy, who didn't even get to prove himself last year. So that's five possible 'starters', although I wouldn't like to apply that to any of these players.

That's not competition, that's a crapstorm :F

Agreed.

Do you see any future for sanchez in the NFL? I don't. If I was a GM, I would rather take a rookie over Sanchez.

Sanchez is something like the 45th best QB in the league. If I were the Jets last year I would have kept using the rookie whose name now eludes me- the guy who led their first touchdown drive in 40 quarters. Not Tebow, though. The guy has absolutely no arm whatsoever. He's going to burn out really soon.

Mark Sanchez does have a future in the NFL, probably as a backup on good teams who maybe can get the opportunity to start for bad teams. Compare him to Byron Leftwich (also known as Michael Brick for his false belief in his scrambling ability). Byron Leftwich got to the playoffs early in his career (like Sanchez), then dropped off quickly after instability with the Jaguars (like Sanchez has). Leftwich is now a backup in Pittsburgh. Who knows were Sanchez could go, but this is what I see for him if the Jets decide to get away from him.

lastly, no he is not a joke. The man led his team to two AFC Championships and actually showed up in the playoffs. He just isn't a big talent like they thought he was.

I wouldn't say he led his team to 2 AFC championships...more like everyone else did and he just happened to be on the team. Also, he should be in something like near his prime after all these years. This has to be great concern for teams. I am going to say he has no future since he has crashed so early.

Whatever else Sanchez is, he's definitely a joke. Name another quarterback who ran into his offensive lineman's butt and fumbled, on national television to boot.
