I think Sanchize is better than last year, and I think people are under rating their D drastically.
Assuming Brady stays healthy they won’t beat the Pats, no. But I’m not going to sit here and crown a champ or call a chump based on paper.
All I’m saying is I don’t buy the narrative they are this horrid abomination of a team everyone likes to call them. [/quote]
You think Sanchez is better than last year? No sarcasm, WHY?
He’s been benched more than once, has 62 games under his belt, and for his career he has one more interception than touchdown. His highest pass rating was 78.2, and that came in the 2011 season. In 1,867 pass attempts, he has shown that at best, he is a backup QB if that. His single season completion percentage has never above 56.7%.
He isn’t just bad, he is horrible. Sanchez has been given more opportunities in the past four season, by far, than any other QB with the same performance probably in the last 10 years.
No one is calling the Jets chumps based on paper. They are calling the Jets chumps based on their performance, or lack thereof in the last two season and horrible QB play in the last four seasons.
Their defense? Probably slightly underated at this stage based on how often they were on the field last season, but the only person who is defining them based on “paper” is yourself with bloated expectations (of which no one else has seen this “paper”).
I mean nothing against you personally, but surely what factual evidence can you provide that the Jets will even begin to compete for a wild card spot this year?

Weren’t they in the playoffs like 2 years ago?
