Should the Jets move on from Mark Sanchez?

Soybean, don't want to be too picky but this isn't my quote.

Well this got interesting...

“We have to bring in another quarterback that will make him work at practice,” said one player. “He’s lazy and content because he knows he’s not going to be benched.”


Here's an article from E!SPN too

[DraftSavant]

"A source close to the team pointed out that Sanchez’s inability to handle mounting criticism prompted him to unfollow every Jets beat writer on Twitter earlier this season."

Hahahahahahaha

On Dec. 28, Sanchez denied the notion that he was a victim of a high standard set by going to two AFC Championship Games in his first two seasons.

"We hold ourselves to a high standard,” Sanchez said. “I don’t want to feel like I’m a victim or anything like that. We expect to win... I don’t feel like we’ve set the bar too high. There is no way. I don’t feel like that.”

Six days later, Sanchez expressed a much different outlook.

“You go to back-to-back AFC Championship Games, and everybody thinks, ‘OK, we’ll just get a little bit better and you are winning the Super Bowl,’” Sanchez told ESPN Radio on Jan. 3. “I don’t want to make excuses at all. That’s not my style. But we’ve kind of been a victim of our own success.”

Sanchez doesn't have the mental make up of an NFL QB, at least an NFL QB in New York.

[DraftSavant]

Like I keep saying, "charisma" only gets you so far.

[Complex]

This nydn.us/xnShGZ by @TheJetsStream is false. If "unnamed sources" want to attack Mark, man up and put your name to it #JETS

- Mangold twitter

Jets cyber wars. I thought Jets people said Mark was a hard worker.

[Giantsfan1080]

The Jets are a sinking ship. This is what happens when all your coach does is yap and sets high expectations and then you fail miserably to meet them.

[Grizzlegom]

Twitterverse blowing up saying that with Sparano in NY now, good chance Henne follows him to push Sanchez. That's a winning combo right there.

[Complex]

BTW I hate "unnamed sources and players" or "sources close to *insert name*".

[TimD]

I hate to write a guy off after 3 years, but its kinda hard not to. He hasn't shown any sort of improvement over 3 seasons. I understand our RT and WR situation sucked last year, but if he's our franchise qb he should have battled through the adversity.

i always liked michigan before i got accepted into penn state so im not completely against chad henne, but hes not the answer either. i have no idea what they should do, but then again im not being paid to make those decisions.

mike t, rex, and now sparano need to figure something out. my message to them:

I don't think he's really cut to be a QB anywhere, let alone NY. The Jets don't let him do anything. Some think the Jets are too conservative, I think they are forced to do what they have to. We'll see this year. Haley will go nuts if Sanchez can't run what he wants him to if he also goes to the Jets to run their passing attack.

Sparano approves of Marc Colombo for RT!!

People will kill anyone for anything. McElroy puts his face to a quote and people say "Who the F are you to talk"?

[Hurricanes25]

If Sanchez truly is lazy, I'm not surprised. He just seems to have that laid back SoCal attitude.

Yeah, I would love to know what player said it. My guess is Holmes.

[Saints-Tigers]

This is gold, hahha.

thats a good point but at least he isnt hiding. he simply said what was on his mind

yeah i agree. i could also see it being someone on defense who is sick of playing with the endzone at their backs because of sanchez..

cromartie maybe?

[49erNation85]

stupid Jet fans haha..

It wasn't Cro

If your not for the team then get out." I think there's enough players that buy in, problem is news is never about the positive majority, it's the negative minority

- Cro

[Giantsfan1080]

The Jets defense has just as much blame as Sanchez for the way the year ended.

[Saints-Tigers]

I laugh at how bi-polar the Jets are. It seems like the whole team was content with coddling Sanchez until they missed the post season. Now they want to *****.

its so frustrating because there is a lot of talent in place, but the lack of player leadership and a couple HUGE weak spots completely dismantled the team over the course of the season.

losing cotchery, smith, ellis, woody, and richardson now seems like it had a major impact upon the season. i also wish they kept braylon just for the deep threat. mike t really **** the bed last offseason

[Saints-Tigers]

The whole team thinks like Rex now. Good streak= "We can't be beat, we're going to win it all!", bad streak= "We suck, and won't make the playoffs!"

Maybe I'm laughing because Rex annoys me so much.

[bigbluedefense]

This is what happens Rex. This is what happens when you massage egos, tell guys they are better than they really are, take away all player accountability by always taking the blame yourself, gassing up players who need a kick in the pants, and getting a bunch of lockerroom cancers bc you think everyone wants to play for you and will be on good behavior for you.

This is what happens.

The Jets are falling apart, and it's going to get worse before it gets better. And it's very clear to me that Sanchez needs to go. He sucks. I'm done with him.

He'll get next year to prove himself, but he won't succeed. He'll get cut after next year, and who knows what happens with Rex. This ship is sinking fast.

Rex might not survive 2012 if this continues.
