Jordan's writing actually became sloppy way before he became sick. He actually had a similar thing going on as Martin, got to the middle of the series and the books started taking much longer as the quality got worse. Though to be fair to Martin, his books have never gotten as bad as Jordan's nor were Jordan's books the same quality of Martin's.

But Brandon Sanderson is a very good writer for sure, and the three books of WOT he wrote were much better written than the last 4 Jordan wrote.

Sanderson is an excellent author.. but he really kind of flopped it when it came to writing Mat in his first attempt
