Part of the reason I love listening to the FBG podcast and anything else FBG puts out is because I know I am getting solid football analysis that isn't the crap that the media spits out just to incite arguments and controversy etc. But at this point the Sanchez/Tebow talk with Sanchez being horrible and Tebow taking over are way outta control and I see the FBG going away from any kind of analysis and buying into the nonsense.
I am sorry but my first argument for this has to be that psyche is just not a measurable stat, not to mention we have very very little to go on to say Sanchez has a weak psyche. Granted the NY media is huge they present a lot of story, but what people don't realize is that no matter how convincing they sound they love to slant the story to what they feel will grab the most attention either positively or negatively. When that happens and every media outlet follows with it from the beat writers, radio, to tv they throw out any of the logic behind it and present the story as fact.
What is true, Sanchez is not a star qb! What he is, is above average qb in HIS 4th YEAR with upside. He has improved statistically in every category in each of his first three years. Yards, %, TDs, and INTs. Granted it has not been vast improvement, but far from the back tracking and horrible play that everyone claims. THE TEAM went from going to the AFC championship 2yrs in a row, and 3rd year the missed the playoffs. Essentially tho if we pay attention and know football we don't buy into the thought that the qb is the only aspect of a team that counts!
Well documented is the collapse of his offensive line, the regression of the run game starting the year Sanchez arrived. As well as the regression of the defense from 3yrs ago when it was at its peak. The FACTS are that Sanchez is improving and has improved while his team has not. Which isn't an excuse because he is still only above average and he just hasn't become great. However I need to see a statistical issue before I can say he isn't my starting qb and I am going to give the rains to a guy who everyone agrees cannot play the position.
Yes I am a Jets fan, but that's really a good thing when it comes to writing this story because I care. If I were au giants fan I would be happy that the media is having fun etc, or if I was a fan of another team I would except these things to be true. But the facts are what people are suggesting that Sanchez will fail and will lose his job goes against what any coacing staff would do. What the media will have you believe is that the fans want this etc and everyone will cry for Tebow. But the FACT is as a fan and as someone who listens to JETs fans call the radio etc. Nobody ever says they think Mark is horrible, or that they loved the move and they want Tebow etc. Everyone was angry and even media personel used the story immediately that the Jets don't make sense and don't know what they are doing.
The media is creating the "CIRCUS", they are perpetuating the stories. But the fans don't want Tebow. But more importantly IF Sanchez fails, it will be because of Sanchez not being good enough. He will not play horrible because of Tebow and the media and he can't handle the pressure, then go to another team and be great! If he doesn't do well its because of him. So please stop buying into the nonsense FBG, especially since this is a fantasy show. Sanchez can put up decent numbers and has upside and is a solid option. A backup qb is not a reason to think he will fail.
Lastly Tebow wasn't brought in to replace Sanchez and you might think that the coaching staff is just saying that Sanchez is their guy. But from everything I see from Tebow he makes a GREAT short yardage wildcat QB. Nothing else and you can't say its lip service to call him that. How many QBs have we seen run the wildcat as it has been in its recent past few years of success. I will tell the answer is none! Brad Smith, Cribs, Ronnie and Ricky and that's really it. But what has been seen is the guy who was most successful at it Tony Sparano is now our OC. Then add a guy who isn't a real passer, but way more that possible to succeed then any of the guy I just mentioned.
So why can't it be that they both can be successful or failures on their own. Tebow will be used on 3rd and 4 or less situations. Sure GL too. But how is that ay different from handing the ball off to the RB. Would Sanchez realistically have any shot to get the ball back if he handed it off in any situation like that? No! Its no different and in fact it gives more solid oppurtumity for drives to stay alive! Is that really a bad thing!?
