Tebow is probably going to get cut and is just about as accurate as Sanchez and while 17/13 is better than 12/20, it's still fairly terrible for a dude that was 9th in attempts last year. Also, how would you suggest he get that percentage near 60% if he's overthrowing 5 yard slant routes by 5 yards?<br /><br />@Snoot - being better than Joe Namath isn't a compliment. All he would have to do is win more than he lost, throw more TD's than picks, and have a QB rating that's higher than guys who wore leather helments and played games when the Benny Goodman band and the Lindy Hop where all the fad.Hater Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1966735045265717224.post-45698203928992942992011-08-30T21:13:05.881-04:002011-08-30T21:13:05.881-04:00I actually think Sanchez may end up being a better...I actually think Sanchez may end up being a better QB then Namath in the long run. Everyone knows that the Jets winning the 1969 Super Bowl was rigged to help the AFC gain enough respect to join the NFL.Snoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01790750695737522069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1966735045265717224.post-51089864902198257232011-08-30T21:10:20.754-04:002011-08-30T21:10:20.754-04:00One more thing: how come Pennington didn't ge...One more thing: how come Pennington didn't get much love? I always liked him. In 2002 - his best year with the Jets - he had a 68.9 completion percentage, 208 yards per game, with 22 tds and 6 ints. Then he went to the Dolphins and came in second in the MVP voting.Bottlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1966735045265717224.post-78530900850608955122011-08-30T21:08:27.034-04:002011-08-30T21:08:27.034-04:00Sanchez's stats did get better though.

Also, his rookie year he threw 12 tds and 20 ints, while last year he threw 17/13.<br /><br />He has to get his ridiculously low completion percentage up (54.8%). If he can get it up to 60% or higher, he could actually be a decent QB. Out of the 30 starting QBs in the league, he's probably somewhere around #20 right now.Bottlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1966735045265717224.post-49873831650681516152011-08-30T21:04:48.582-04:002011-08-30T21:04:48.582-04:00What a great post.

Winning the MVP, when he threw no TDs and had no completions in the 4th, is ridiculous.Bottlenoreply@blogger.com
