I'v heard this was floating around, its a weak argument and anyone who thinks Sanchez isn't a better pro QB is smoking crack. This of course is based strictly on the fact that JR just doesn't give a shite.

Interesting indeed...

I think Sanchez will be better. He just seems like he's more committed to learning the nuances of the NFL game. But alot of Sanchez's success has to do with the fact that he has that defense and running game.

Time will tell...way too early for all this Sanchez is a bust talk.

here's hoping Sanchez doesn't eat himself out of any semblance of playing shape and he works hard to better himself in the offseason.

Don't mistake me for a JR fan. I think he is an epic bust. What I gather from this is that he has regressed big time.

Seriously? The guy is a rookie and has his team one game away from the Super Bowl. That is laughable. I don't care what his stats are.

Jets WRs don't fall down on home run throws, trip over each other running routes, and drop balls that hit them between the numbers.

Plus they never had Kwame Harris committing drive-killing penalties every time they crossed midfield.

This arguement is pretty weak considering JR's numbers are much worse this season than last season.

Because he doesn't care. Sanchez is without a doubt a better NFL QB. However, JR is the better NFL QB prospect. It goes to show you that you can't rely 100% on talent all the time. Sanchez seems to have a really good head on his shoulders, and unlike JR, he get's "it." If JR had Sanchez's level head and work ethic, he'd be fantastic.

I'm not naming names but one qb plays for a fricked up organization.

The other plays for a fairly stable organization.


One has NFL caliber WR's the other doesn't.

quit making excuses for him. hes a terrible QB. im a raiders fan and would like nothing more than to see him do good but its not gonna happen. the players on the team dont even like him playing they all prefer gradkowski or frye.

I had a lot of hope for JR going into this season because he really did have some limited success for a first year starter in '08. Interesting to see how similar his numbers were to Sanchez, and JR had a much better TD/INT ratio. what a shame that he regressed so much.

What a shame he plays for one of the dumbest owners inthe NFL. BUT he still doesn't care. He GOT his money.

Why should he care if the owner doesn't ?
