TuscanyTile2 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Of course he didn't write that letter but I think it's safe to assume he paid the cost to post it in the newspaper. He certainly wasn't loved on his way out the door and so he didn't need to do this. I'll give him credit here for a nice gesture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartanJet Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Classy. If only Trader Mike and that buffoon of a head coach had helped him develop a bit instead of letting every skill position on offense completely rot away. Who knows he might not have been the total bust he is today. I just hope the Jets wise up and don't waste as much time on Geno as they did on Sanchez. Another 3 years of Geno is too painful to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The best part about the goodbye letter was who was saying goodbye. I don't care about him personally; we needed a QB and a leader and he was good at neither. Glad he is off the team. Wish him well against non-Jets opponents.

Integrity28 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sanchez wasn't the guy getting burned by Pierre Garcon or the guy getting trucked by Mendenhall. Neither the '09 or '10 teams belonged in those AFCC games, to put he blame on Sanchez alone for losing them is laughable. I wish him luck as a backup somewhere. Maybe he'll get another shot.

sirlancemehlot Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sanchez is a good guy, and a bit of a goofy kid at heart. sneaking a hot dog, wiping a booger on the Marlboro Man, and at least a few really epic comeback games (that are more on Braylon and Holmes than Mark). I wish him good luck. He was mishandled here and robbed of a true offense after 2010, screwed with Sporano and Tanny's genius Tebow move, zero targets the last two years, as well as a deteriorated Oline, had 3 coordinators in 4 years and a head coach who knows nothing about offense or special teams. It was rough sledding. This move will be good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say that Sanchez was a big part of those team's success is not realistic. Look at the pattern of moves made on offense besides him. Power running game, blocking receivers, color coded arm band, strong defense. They even made an offensive line coach the offensive coordinator. They were dumbing down the passing game as much as they could because he was unreliable. Holmes bailed him out of a handful of games by himself.

I think Sanchez has some talent ... too bad he got hooked up with a franchise that has no idea how to develop quarterbacks. I hope he goes somewhere and gets a legitimate shot to succeed with some talent around him and a coach who understands offensive football. Sanchez was a good kid and a class act, which is more than I can say for many on this board who continue to blame him entirely for the last 3 years of mediocre Jets football. Put the blame where it really should be, which is primarily the front office who let the offensive talent on this team deteriorate over the past 3 seasons and continue to bring in rejects from other teams who lack the leadership and "character" qualities necessary in building and running a succesful football franchise geared towards long term success. This team just never learns from it's mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 yeah because in 09 we expected so much out of this team before the season started. With a new coach and a rookie at QB. Sanchez wasn't the guy getting burned by Pierre Garcon or the guy getting trucked by Mendenhall. Neither the '09 or '10 teams belonged in those AFCC games, to put he blame on Sanchez alone for losing them is laughable. 2009: # 1 defense. # 1 running game. Worst QB in the league. I'm not wrong. And despite his failures we made him rich and he got to bang Kate Upton. Kate Upton. You know, this girl: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MeBQz_ov6o Again, Sanchez can go f*** himself.

There were a lot more problems than just Sanchez in the Colts game, but the fact remains that Sanchez was single-handedly responsible for the Steelers' margin of victory. You can be as Smashy as you like about that, it's still the truth. Either way, I suppose he's not a horrible guy despite absolutely being a horrible football player. And I certainly never grew to hate him as much as I did Penny, so he's got that going for him. So long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeWillie Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Look man if you're going to sit here and try to say that Sanchez was a franchise QB, I'm not going to waste my time. Don't twist my words... I never said he was a franchise QB. What I AM saying is that there have been many, many quarterbacks who ended up with very good to great careers that did not look that way after year 2. I believe Sanchez has talent. Unfortunately for the Jets, it never developed here for a variety of reasons, in my opinion, mostly because the organization did not put him in the best position to suceed as most organizations would try to do with a guy they drafted #6 overall. Look, I'm not going to waste my time arguing about Sanchez with you ... you want to blame him entirely for the Jets woes over the past 2-3 years, go ahead. If people want to believe that a 2009 Jets team that was lucky to sneak into the playoffs didn't win the Super Bowl because of Mark Sanchez, that's fine. If there are people on this board that think he was a "horrible player" as I've read in another post, that's their perrogative. But I don't think it's a reasonable way to look at things because the front office let the talent on the offensive side of the ball go to sh*t over the past 3 years. I understand Snachez is not blameless for his performance but football is a team game and much of the success that players, even great players, have is due in large part to the talent and coaching around them. It's too bad we didn't get to see him in Morny's offense last year, I think you may have seen a different player. I think that the success that football players have is largely "situational". Sure you have to have talent, but coaching philosophy, surrounding talent, the division you play in, the building you play in, the culture you're brought into, all have huge impacts on the success of a football player. Ask yourself ... would Tom Brady have had the success he's had playing for the Jets under Herm Edwards or Rex Ryan? Would Dan Marino under Joe Walton? How 'bout Troy Aikman under Bruce Coslet or Rich Kotite? Man, I'm not so sure. To Smash - Thanks. I used to frequent this board more than I do now. I still "check in", mostly to get information, rumors, etc... but to be honest, I don't come here to post as much as I used to for two reasons mostly: 1) Too many "Joe Willies" ,,, can't keep track off the "good ones" vs "the bad ones". 2) I got tired of engaging in verbal battles which usually ended up in personal insults because my opinion differed from somebody else's. Nothing wrong with differing opinions, to me, that's what an internet forum is here for ... healthy debate, exposure to differing perspectives. Hell, I coached high school varsity football for 10 years, but that doesn't mean I know everything there is about football or that I'm always right. In fact, I've had guys on this board change my opinion on something because they convinced me through healthy debate. But there are too many guys on this board that think they're knowledge of football is infallible and when the debates start turning towards sarcasm and personal insults, I usually just tune out. All that said, I really don't understand all the hate on this board towards guys like Pennington and Sanchez, who despite some pretty good success for this franchise, still get verbally abused on this board because they had the audacity not to win a Super Bowl. I'm obviously one of the older guys on this board, so maybe my perspective is a liitle, say, different. It appears I'm in the minority on Sanchez, and that's OK. Doesn't mean I'm wrong (or right). Time may tell us more. All that said, I do appreciate many of the guys on this board whose posts I enjoy reading. I think it proves that a poster can be knowledgable and respectfuul at the same time. To that, I'll just say "Stay classy, Jets fans". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sanchez was still throwing picks to D-lineman in Year 5 of his career (See Ansah, Ziggy). Those who think he'll be the next Garcia or Gannon, keep dreaming. The Eagles are (perhaps, not official yet) signing him in to compete for backup duties with another former USC QB (I.E. probable failure), Matt Barkley. That's what they think of him.

Ah yes, the true mark of an elite QB.. the best you can say about him is that "he wasn't entirely to blame for losing those 2 championship games" The fact that you are even making this argument is whats laughable here.. Seriously, what is your point. That the defense and run game didn't dominate after dragging Sanchez to 2 championship games despite his best efforts to prevent it? He was a very bad QB here anyway you want to slice it, he was probably the single worst player on both of those teams, and the fact that other units played poorly during those championship games means absolutely nothing when evaluating Sanchez's career here.
