Sanchez' starting days are numbered

Cue the circus music.

How long before Jets fans clamor for Tim Tebow?

Is today too soon?

Put a tent over that circus (aka- Rex Ryan's pants).

Gangrene really does need to be excised. And Gang Green is getting pretty toxic. Do they realize that they play in the same division as New England or is there some Roger Goodall special to move NYJ to the AFC west?

Maybe Tebow will bring out the best in Sanchez.....nahhh.

It's all part of Darth Hoodie's plan for NFL domination. He has foreseen it.

oh please... if that is the case... the Browns and alot of other teams including Denver would welcome Sanchez in an instant...

The only thing that keeps Sanchez starting is the lack of a capable backup. And it's not clear to me that this has changed in the last couple of weeks. But, the fan perception of it definitely has.

and how, pray tell, is Tebow a BETTER QB than Sanchez?....... now, if you want my opinion on whether he's a better RB (that can throw a football).......

Oh yes...a 46.5% completion rate is something to get really jacked up about.

Whether Tebow is an actual threat to Sanchez or not doesn't matter. What matters is all the controversy and attention that having Tebow around will promote. Can Sanchez deal with it?

I'm thinking no.

Once upon a time most teams had two quality qBs and it was just the norm.
Unitas/Morrell Stauback/Morton Kilmer/ Sonny Jurgensen and on and on.
Now any half way decent back up is threat?

You haven't watched a lot of Sanchez games, have you? Besides that, I'm guessing that the problems in the Jets' locker room are from a lack of leadership, which the starting quarterback is supposed to provide.

Morrell, Morton and Jurgenson were not considered a "threat" because Unitas, Kilmer and Staubach were quality quarterbacks and leaders. The "threat" thing happens because the guy taking the game snaps is weak.

Also, the threat of backups these days is more that they'll hit free agency and leave after a team spends years grooming them, as in Matt Flynn.

good points. The difference to me though is that both of those QBs in the past were capable. Now? Most teams are fortuante to have one QB capable.
Now you have teams with weak starters and weak back ups.

Dirty Sanchez will be benched by the second game

And by the fourth or fifth game, the fans will be screaming for Tebow's crucifixion. Why?

because....

The Jets Suck!

Plus, you have and OL that have to adjust itself from a right hand QB to a Southpaw at a moments notice...
