Don't blame Sanchez. I played there. Blame the idiots calling shots. Mark is a beast and will probe it when given a proper chance

I'm sure he meant prove, but maybe it was a Freudian slip?

The idiots calling the shots arent responsible for 44 turnovers since last year.

Yes, thats right, Mark has turned the ball over 44 times in the last 2 seasons. Unreal, right?

Braylon Edwards says 'blame the idiots calling the shots' for Mark Sanchez's struggles

Braylon Edwards (17) and Mark Sanchez celebrate together back when Edwards was a Jets wide receiver. William Perlman/The Star-Ledger
Braylon

Edwards has apparently weighed in on the Jets three-way quarterback controversy.
In a Tweet posted early Tuesday morning on Edwards' official page, the former Jets wide receiver said (sic): "Don't blame Sanchez. I played there. Blame the idiots calling shots. Mark is a beast and will probe it when given a proper chance."
Edwards did not specify who the "idiots" were that he was referring to. By all indications, Edwards had a close relationship with head coach Rex Ryan.

Braylon has been gone two seasons! Conspiracy!

There are idiots calling shots, but anything that Braylon says has to be tossed in the trash.

Mark Sanchez sucks, but you can rightfully point to the incompetence of the front office for much of his sucking. They thought it was a good idea to surround him with Plaxico, Derrick Mason and Santonio at one point. There's no spinning that kind of idiotic thinking.

[unbanmadmike1]

Sanchez played his best when Braylon was here though even that wasn't very good. Not bringing him back for no money was beyond stupid.

And Braylon.

[Sperm Edwards]

Braylon Edwards has no ax to grind with the Jets' coaches and management for not re-signing him (twice). And he's smart, too.

ARE WE BLAMING SCHOTTY AGAIN!??!?!?

Bray is calling out Tannenbaum. Sanchez sucks, but Tannenbaum sucks too.

Bray is calling out Tannenbaum. Sanchez sucks, but Tannenbaum sucks too.

Duh. Edwards being correct in saying 1+1=2 doesn't mean he's also right in saying 1+2=2.

I suppose Sanchez probably would have sucked no matter who the cast was....but the 2010-2011 offseason made absolutely zero sense.

I feel really dirty right now but, GULP, I agree...

sanchez is a bigger locker room cancer then those guys... BOOK IT!

It seemed like Sanchez had some rapport with Edwards and 2010 was a step forward from 2009, it seemed anyway. They removed Braylon from the equation, gave Holmes a boatload of money, and Sanchez has regressed these last two seasons. I'm not saying Braylon is the ONLY reason Sanchez has sucked, but it's obvious now that it is part of it.

See this is where you're dead wrong. There was no progression in 2010, and no regression since, unless you count going from "sucking" to "sucking just as badly while sprinkling in an attitude of 'I don't want to be here'" as regression.

2010 was probably the most talented Jets team EVER, or at least top 3. It hid Mark's flaws quite nicely. When you have a HOF back, some solid receivers, an outstanding O-line, and the top pass defense, of course he's going to look like he improved.
