Something dramatic. That’s what the
Jets do after the Giants win the Superbowl. Win in 2008? Sign Favre. Win again
in 2012? Sign Tebow. But will the Jets dramatic move to be the popular NY team
pay off this time? Many people think it won’t, and Tebow will just be a 2nd
string qb? Which doesn’t make sense; it’d be a waste of money and not to
mention talent.
There’s no doubt that Tebow can
produce on the field, even though he’s barely out of college. And from the
looks of it, Tebow will sadly be a bench warmer. Earlier today, the owner of
the Jets (Woody Johnson), was quick to make it clear, that Sanchez was their
starting quarterback, and that he trusted him enough to give Sanchez an
extension. He even went as far as to comment on how consistence Sanchez is.
While that mostly true, he hasn’t been
consistently good. Rather, he’s been
consistently mediocre. Johnson was asked whether or not Sanchez would be benched
if his performance was subpar, which he refused to answer. But the facts are,
even though Tebow is inexperienced he’s performed better than Sanchez in almost
every way.
For instance, Sanchez has had a
total of 43 interceptions, and he’s played just 40 games. While Tebow has
played just 16 games and only has 3 interceptions. The two players’ pass
completions are within 5% of each other. But who knows, maybe a situation similar
to Kyle Orton’s will happen in the Jets camp, allowing Tebow to show he is the
better qb. He’ll only get better with time!

I believe that this is Mark Sanchez's year.
ReplyDeleteWhether that is a good or bad thing will be up to him...........but this is the time where he either earns his pay, or proves he's not worth it.
After this year, it will be 100% clear who the starting quarterback will be out of the two. If Sanchez is mediocre, he's gone, or at least put on the bench, and if he's great, then it's over for Tebow.
But only time will tell.
Great post - used your words very effectively - each one had meaning, backing up your point of view. Liked it a lot.
