to me the jets got worse this past offseason, they didn't improve the team and they lost a bunch of guys this offseason. this team to me isn't as good as the 09 and 10 teams. going into the season looking at the roster i felt the same way.
to counter the argument i usually hear about how if the jets had a good qb they would've won a super bowl by now, personally i think sanchez played better then a rookie would in the 09 afc title game. last year aside from the fumble (which i still feel was a very questionable call) sanchez played a decent game in pittsburgh.---- he didn't carry the team in a brady esque way but in the playoff games he won, he plaed decent when he needed to, which i give him credit for considering he was in his first and second seasons. it's good qb's that completely fall apart in the playoffs and i don't see that in him.
the o line isn't what it once was, the defense went from a top elite defense to a middle of the pack defense and those are areas i feel HAVE to be addressed this offseason.
while this has happened, mark sanchez's stats have actually improved and if he cut back on the turnovers he would be having a respectable season. (alot of good qb's still have this problem in their 3rd season, hell look at john elway and drew brees)
i understand frustration but i feel alot of the people wanting sanchez gone are the same as those who wanted eli manning gone after his 3rd season and eli had a ton of downs that year as the giants looked like crap that entire 2nd half of that season.
it's the norm for new york teams but it is what it is, alot of fans want a winner but don't have the patience to let the team build a winner. im reading the jets messageboards and dudes are talking about firing rex, cleaning house and gutting the entire team not named revis and its stupid to me.
i'm all for bringing in a decent backup next season but that qb job is mark sanchez's next season unless he completely implodes. if he doesn't have it after next season you move on but this offseason regardless of what happens next week the team needs to improve other areas as well.
on a side note guess who was the qb coach when drew brees was struggling in san diego during his early years? a guy named brian schottenheimer.
