flgreen Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Mark Sanchez ranked third most overrated player in NFL in SI poll » By Manish Mehta Is Mark Sanchez overrated? Well, his peers think so. The Jets second-year quarterback was tied for the third most overrated player in the NFL in Sports Illustrated’s annual players’ poll. Sanchez and Redskins defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth each received five percent of the votes. In other words, 12 of 239 players polled selected Sanchez. Bengals wide receiver Terrell Owners was voted the most overrated among players with 14 percent of the vote. His former quarterback Tony Romo received 7 percent of the vote. Former Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning was named the fifth most overrated despite passing for more than 4,000 yards last season. Sanchez, who has been the trigger man for an offense averaging 26.5 ppg, has nine touchdowns and two interceptions to help the Jets to their white-hot start. His string of 184 consecutive passes without a pick was snapped against the Broncos last week. The votes were taken in the preseason and in the first week or two of the season, so Sanchez’s solid play likely wasn’t taken into consideration. Instead, players probably just looked at his 20-INT rookie year - and all the preseason hype - when making their decisions. The poll will be in this week’s SI on newsstands tomorrow.

JiF Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 How the F is he OVER rated? He was the only thing holding us back last year... That the first thing that came to mind. How do you overrate a guy who threw 20 picks and was the worst passer in the league last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aten Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 How do you overrate a guy who threw 20 picks and was the worst passer in the league last season. Generally by using the word poise four times in one sentence. I think SportsCenter is more likely than fan opinion to have been the frame of reference for those polled.
