Please note the time of this post. The Jets and Bills are still in the first quarter of their 4 p.m. game.
And I predict Mark Sanchez will struggle today.
Why?
Well, my prediction is based on what I've heard from more than one NFL personnel guy. Mark Sanchez is solid, he is likely going to be just fine as a quarterback as long as the weather is good or he's playing inside a dome.
But in the Meadowlands? With the winds blowing? In the dead of winter's snow or rain?
The NFL folks tell me he's not equipped for that kind of weather.
Now, the winds are apparently blowing at Giants Stadium today. We'll see if the NFL folks are right or not.
Check back after the game for the results.
[Update: The game is over and in his first bad-weather game at the Meadowlands, Sanchez completed 10 of 29 passes for 119 yards with 5 interceptions. The Jets lost a game in which they rushed for 318 yards. Buffalo wins, 16-13 in overtime.]
That's all I got to say about that.
That's 6 ints

nice draw

This kid for the Jets looks terrible. That begs the question, just how bad is our defense that we made him look like the next Joe Namath? Six picks today and last week he threw all over us!

This should end the fantasy of the Jests fans and their hallucination that they are a top team
Posted by: bobbyd12 | October 18, 2009 at 08:02 PM
beating this shitty team is what we have been hanging our hat on.....OMG...We are in trouble against the Saints!

Never thought I could enjoy football sunday this good with da Fins on bye week. LMAO
Posted by: lo | October 18, 2009 at 08:02 PM
WHY does Buffalo keep pitching it 5 yards behind the line of scrimmage? That play hasn't gained more than 1-2 yards yet.
Posted by: JohnnyBlaze | October 18, 2009 at 08:03 PM
Sanchez may never recover from this. This is great

Posted by: GrimRocker | October 18, 2009 at 08:04 PM
JohhnyBlaze, let's not forget two fake punts, a questionable call against Gibril and a horrible call against Will Allen...Sanchez certainly didn't have a GREAT game
Posted by: bobbyd12 | October 18, 2009 at 08:04 PM
nice catch by evans, i'd take him on the fins in a second

Posted by: Randthefin | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
Will be overturned...
Posted by: Tommya | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
Now on a more serious note, what are we going to do next week against the Saints?
Posted by: Kevin | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
the zebras will ruin this
Posted by: severinno | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
Reading the chat from Chile- this dolphins fan commentary on the jets game is making my weekend!! Go bills!! We need TO for a score here to really rub it in.
Posted by: dulles | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
I have ALWAYS liked this kid Lee Evans. Don't see how they can overturn this call. Lets see where the "sharps" money went tonight. We are about to find out!
Posted by: JohnnyBlaze | October 18, 2009 at 08:05 PM
henne is better suited to play at the meadowlands than sanchump
Posted by: Pound | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM
overturned, only because the game can't end this easy...lol
Posted by: GrimRocker | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM
Not enough to overturn the call on the field
Posted by: bobbyd12 | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM
This is almost as good as the fins gettin a win. I've got goosebumps
Posted by: Stonecld33 | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM
HENNE THE HERO IS THE MAN!

Posted by: severinno | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM

Posted by: mike d | October 18, 2009 at 08:06 PM
