Nope.
I'd take Matt Ryan over Sanchez any day of the week... and I'm not really a fan of Ryan.
Amen! How can you not like someone who throws to Julio? Plus, he got ATL to the playoffs.
No way...thats not how the NFL works.
The Jets management staff will have major issues with the public statements.
The coaching staff will have major issues with him calling them out
the p[layers will have major issues with his words
he was a 7th round selection thats been on injured reserve for the entire season
his position REQUIRES the players to have faith in your leadership and want to play behind you
this is not a good thing for GMac
How about the public statement their head coach made a couple of years ago when his naughty little foot fetish tapes came out? For the most part, that was swept under the rug and laughed at. When your leader can't keep his dirty laundry in the hamper, where is the respect? Rex Ryan lost a lot of respect back then. Another issue with the management of this team is the selection of both the goons discussed below. The Jets also had a player once, who was over a half a million dollars behind in child support. When they signed him, part of the agreement was to pay the back child support before he saw his first paycheck. They have a history of signing players with questionable character (see cancer, below). I know all the owners and coaches care about is WINNING and in the NFL they can technically BUY a championship, but GEEZ, it seems like the Jets do not care what type of PERSON lands in their organization. It makes it VERY difficult to wish success on them, even with a good friend as a coach.
The players who may be butthurt over this: Santonio Holmes and Plaxico Burress. Let's look at both of these crown jewels of society. Holmes has a history, going back to his childhood, of drug possession/sale/use. He has had incidences of throwing a glass or bottle at a WOMAN in a nightclub, cutting her face, possession of marijuana, and various other belligerent behaviors--he refused to turn off his iPod on a flight so he just got off the flight instead. What a jerk. And, Plaxico. We all know what REALLY made HIM famous. Something about shooting himself with his own gun in a nightclub?
These two clowns need to look at other players who have "had issues" and take some lessons--see Ray Lewis and Mike Vick. The verdict is still out on Vick, but look at the person Ray Lewis has become. It IS possible to turn it around.
When Greg used the word "cancer" he was right on the money. All it takes is ONE small tumor to create a chain reaction of damage. Those two above are as malignant as you can get. If this gets him cut, then maybe that is a good thing. Another team will pick him up or he will go on to have a GREAT career in sports. If he is anything like his dad, who was described by another poster as being an arrogant a**hole, then he will definitely have staying power. I find that people who describe someone in that way are just intimidated by that person. It is easy to label them as a jerk, when what they really are is confident, polished, smart and successful.
