“We have to bring in another quarterback that will make him work at practice,” said one player. “He’s lazy and content because he knows he’s not going to be benched.”
“Come on. That’s a no-brainer,” a Jets source said. “If you have a chance to get a healthy 36-year-old Peyton Manning and you don’t do it, then you’re stupid. If I could get a healthy 36-year-old Peyton Manning, then, hell yeah, I would trade Sanchez.”
“We already have his coach — Tom Moore,” one well-respected player said. “Plus, he’s a field general and will get everyone lined up. He will get his playmakers the ball. We can win a Super Bowl with Peyton.”
“How can we when he’s not improving at all?” one of Sanchez’s teammates said. “He thinks he is, but he’s not. He has shown us what he’s capable of.”
“At one point, he was looking at the (pass) rush and wasn’t seeing the receivers,” a team source said. “I think that’s a lack of confidence in what we’re doing. I think that’s a lack of confidence in how we’re protecting him… When you get hit the way that he got hit, there were some quarterbacks that wouldn’t have made it through the season.”
The Jets have been extremely aggravating me this offseason. The most recent drama is a bunch of anonymous players have been taking shots at their QB Mark Sanchez.
Whether you think Sanchez is a good QB or not, to go under the blanket of anonymity is ridiculous. At least Greg McElroy and LT had the courage to go and say these things publicity.
This speaks volumes of what this locker room is like, and Rex Ryan needs to find a way to wrangle these players in to one cohesive unit. Rex Ryan opened pandora's box by saying the most outlandish things all year, that his players lost the hierarchy of a locker room. Rex has a big year coming up.
Take for instance the best franchise in football the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ike Taylr may have had the worst game in the history of cornerbacks and after the game he manned up and said, "First off I want to congratulate Tim Tebow and The Broncos" then "Second I apologize for playing the worst game at the wrong time, apologize to teammates, steelernation and family" That's class, that being a man.
As for the Jets this offseason? I have seen monkey shit fights that are more organized than their locker room.
