I also agree with SD that despite being a statistically good defense this team desperately needs a true pass rusher that can provide pressure from a base package, you will not beat the good teams just by pressuring, you need an actual sack on occasion. The shame is that if Clemens and Gholston had both been the real deal they could be making a real run this season.

He did not have a good game. Was he the only reason they lost? Unlike the BUF game, no. But he did contribute. In addition to the players mentioned the HC, for opting to kick a FG one yard from the promised land, the DC for going against what was working all game in the final drive, and the OC, for once again creating a gameplan based on the opponents perceived weaknesses instead of his own teams strengths, also deserve criticism. It was a true team loss, with all but Braylon deserving a share (and he took blame anyway, which I love btw). Up until this week the coverage of Sanchez was mostly favorable, and this week almost every criticism is accompanied by some justification, as it should be, he is after all inexperienced. I did not see anyone claiming he is a bust, or that he should be benched this week. Its the internet where the cricism has gone out of control and lost focus on the bigger picture. Eli was not criticized as much in his rookie year? Not sure about that alleged fact, but if true one reason might be simply that he started so few games. The season ended before before the media had time to run out of patience. He got a clean slate to start Y2, and he was making progress by HIS 13th start, which happened to be in his second season. Mark basically got a pass the first half of the season, but now that he has failed to grow despite the color coded stupidity the media is starting to take a harder look. Only natural. They expected to see progress, they, and I, have not seen enough (although some of you say you have). First, I dont think Sanchez is getting crushed by the media, properly critcized yes, crushed no.

I hope that Schotty is schown the door at the end of the scheduled Scheason. Why? Because he Schucks. Also anyone criticizing Sanchez needs to remember he is just running the plays that are called. Scout out for T.O.. LOL Seriously fire schotty now!!! The Kerry Rhodes graph was spot on, he is a p@ssy.

In fact, there were many writers who said it was a mistake for Warner to start and that Eli should've started from day 1, like his brother, in order to speed his NFL learning curve. I just think it's ridiculous that Sanchez is getting ripped after this loss. If veterans like Jones, Strickland, Faneca, Dearth, Feely and Clemens had done their jobs, the Jets would be 8-6. This was not the Buffalo game where Sanchez hurt the Jets with his play. Against the Falcons, in terrible windy conditions, he did his job by getting the Jets to the redzone 5 times (including the TD bomb). Three missed FGs and a stupid penalty cost the Jets points more than any Sanchez INT. Eli did not get crushed his rookie season.

Sanchez started 16 games. If anything, there should be more slack on Sanchez because of his lack of experience and the fact that he was the opening day starter for a NY NFL team as a 22 year old kid. i think that is boils down to the bar he set by his performance in games 1-3. that bar was ridiculously high, he was on pace for 3200 yards, 23 TDs and 11 INTs. so he has come back to earth a bit. but im my mind, that was to be expected also the thing that people are leaving out of the Sanchez vs Eli discussion is the fact that Eli was a 4 year player in college and started 3 years.

Its already been mentioned but, his zero passer rating game still was met with some "he's just a rookie" commentary. again, a ZERO passer rating and a game he was pulled from yet, he started the following week!
