Jets QB Battle

Hey All,

 Today ended the first week of Organized Team Workouts (OTA's) and the Jets have a clear picture of who their starting QB will be. Mark Sanchez just seemed to preform better this week, than his counter part Tim Tebow.


The fourth-year signal caller outshined Tim Tebow by looking sharp on his short, intermediate and deep throws. While Tebow, who was running many of the plays for the first time, threw two interceptions in 7-on-7 drills, Sanchez connected with rookie Stephen Hill for a 75-yard touchdown. “(Tebow’s) popularity drives a lot of that,” Sanchez said. “At the same time, I wouldn't be in this position if I couldn't handle it. And I’m prepared for it.” “I’m getting a good vibe from what we’re doing now,” Sanchez said of the offense.

Sanchez is looking to bounce back after a terrible, for lack of a better word, season last season. Sanchez throw a career high 26 turnovers last season, and in New York, that's not going to get it done. “I got to take care of the ball better,” Sanchez said. Now the team wants him to fix this problem so bad that the running backs coach, Anthony Lynn had a 20-minute power point presentation on the correct ways to secure the ball.

The added stress on Sanchez to do better this season, has been heightened by the arrival of Tebow. Tebow has brought on so much competition that Sanchez needs to preform at the highest level possible, in order to keep his starting job. I think this was just a tactic by coach Rex Ryan in order to get his franchise quarterback to play the way they want him to. He can't play the way he did last season, otherwise Tim Tebow will be the starter and Sanchez will be the one on the bench.

All in all, Sanchez will be the starter, and Tebow will be on the one playing on the punt team. Unless Sanchez gets hurt and will miss a lot of time, Tebow wont see a minute on offense. This whole bringing him in thing was a scam and is starting to work wonders for the Jets. Sanchez is playing well, Tebow is pushing him to play better, and the added media attention that he brings doesn't hurt either.

Tebow Time?

Hey All,

Everyone is buzzing about the man of the year in Denver, Tim Tebow. He is trying to bring back life to an organization that has such a rich history. This is a man you want running the show for you when the games on the line. He has great stats in the fourth quarter. He has a Quarter Back Rating of 73.4% with in the last 2 minutes of the game, and in the fourth quarter 113.6% QBR. Now along with that he is  7-1 while a starter this season, bringing back the Broncos from a terrible start with Kyle Orton running the show. Now overall Tebow may not have the best looking stats on the planet, but that's not what makes him great. You can't just look at his numbers and say that he a terrible QB, he's only a running back with an arm, and he shouldn't be starting. Watch some of his game films, especially in the fourth quarter and tell me that you wouldn't want him to be the man in charge when the games on the line. I know if I was a coach or owner of a team, I would have been doing everything in my power to get him on my team, teach him the skills needed to be a starter, and shape my offense around him to make it successful. Now I know he throws the ball 15 times a game, and most would say that's not enough of a QB at the professional level. I would have to agree with that statement, but I know he runs the ball 25 times a game. That puts pressure on the running backs on the team, making them work harder to become better, so that a QB isn't out rushing them in a game. Willis McGahee is the one running back saying that his work ethic has improved since the Tebow Era started in Denver. He does not want to be out rushed by a QB. All in all Tim Tebow is a great QB in the NFL, and the best thing to happen for the Denver Broncos. He is producing wins, he brought their season back into great shape, and he may just bring them to the playoffs. If his Defense keeps him in the game and keep it close in the fourth quarter Tebow has the skills needed to get the job done and put a W in the Win column. Most people don't like him, but I on the other hand do and can't wait to see what he does for the rest of the season.

Until next time readers,
