New York Jets Quarterback Fiasco



I said when the Jets acquired Tim Tebow in the off-season that they would regret that decision down the line.  Not saying that Tim Tebow is a bad athlete, but he's not the man you want to eventually become your franchise quarterback.  Mark Sanchez is not that man either.  He's not a big play quarterback and he relies to much on his defense to make him and the Jets look good.  When the Jets went to two consecutive AFC Championship games in the 2009 and 2010 season, their defense was top five in the league yet their offense barely cracked the top 20 in all offensive categories. Don't get me wrong Tim Tebow had a great year last year with the Denver Broncos, but even the Broncos organization knew that they couldn't stick with Tebow for the long run which is why they dealt him to New York.  Now with everything that has transpired over the past year for the Jets they are now faced with another crucial decision in Greg Mcelroy.  Mcelroy led the Jets to a 7-6 victory over the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday, but even then his performance wasn't too promising hence the final score of the ball game.  In my opinion, the Jets front office is faced with a lot of adversity this off-season.  I wouldn't be surprised if the GM and Head Coach Rex Ryan are ousted at the conclusion of this season.  However, for the quarterbacks, Sanchez signed an extension in the off-season which locks him up under center for the next few years while Tebow and Mcelroy will most likely taking the back seat to Sanchez.  With Tebow's uncharacteristic ability, it will be best for the coaching staff to help utilize to the best of his ability in order to use him to his full potential.
