http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4owbJy8rK0 Checked back and pretty sure it hasn't been posted yet, but I came across this video on youtube of Sanchez mic'd up at practice. Thought some of you might like to see it. Best part is how he praised Hazelton for making a great catch, and in the next scene was like "he would have gotten killed". It just furthers what we already know, very positive, upbeat guy; teammates obviously gravitate to him.
I watched that when i began to want to know more about sanchez back in early February. It fun to see him mic'd up like that. Remember Ryan's request/demand for his players to have fun? No one is more fun than Mark Sanchez.
They said Brett Favre was fun too. But even is Sanchez plays poorly, he will still be better than Favre.
^Favre with the Jets or Favre in his career. I personally don't care about him playing better than anybody else... I want him playing his game. If this kid is a franchise QB, then the comparisons stop - completely. I'd like 10-15 years of no "Sanchez vs. (insert new QB here)"... i think we'll all live longer that way. Also, if this kid takes 20 games to come into his own as a NFL franchise QB - we better be fucking patient. After his 5th game people are complaining they should be banned for stupidity.... 92% of us wanted him here, so we better man the fuck up and be patient - he's not going to be a stud in game 1. Even Flacco took 7 weeks to finally do well. I can see Sanchez taking longer.
I remember Manning and Brady being compared to other QBs when they first showed up on the scene - it's inevitable. And then other QBs started being compared to THEM, because they came into their own.
