"In 2012, Sanchez will make the same money ($11.75 million) he was set to earn before the extension. The difference is how it pays out: According to NationalFootballPost.com, Sanchez will now receive an $8 million signing bonus and a $3.25 million guaranteed salary, along with an offseason workout bonus of $500,000. The bonus is spread over the five remaining years of the deal, saving $6.4 million against the Jets' cap.
In 2013, Sanchez goes from a non-guaranteed $6 million to a guaranteed $8.75 million. The guarantee is nice, though it would have taken an epically bad season (think Blaine Gabbert, only more abject terror) for the Jets not to bring him back in the final year of his original deal.
All told, Sanchez will get $20.5 million guaranteed compared to $17.75 million of non-guaranteed money over the next two years. It's a "measly" raise of $2.75 million."
His extension isn't really what it appears. Though if for some reason Tebow become the guy for 2013 then they would have to cut Sanchez as he's too expensive for a backup and no one would want that contract

I'm not even trolling. I honestly believe he will be.yankeehater said:
They bring in Sparano who oversaw the Wildcat/Single Wing offense with the Dolphins and helped to popularize it in the league. The Jets want to go back to a run first offense and go on and on about ground and pound.
Woody wants to get asses in the seats, Sanchez has struggled and the extension isn't as pretty as folks make it out to be (see squicken's post). Considering the insanity of Tebow's fans and his popularity - all it takes is for Jets fans to get fed up with his poor play and start that Tebow chant before Rex will buckle and put Tebow in. I'm saying week 6...

Rex will forget all about Sanchez after Tebow runs for a 70 yard game-winning touchdown against the Patriots.
The kid's got great feet.

I don't think Rex really loves Sanchez, but I think he knows his time in New York is numbered and the eventual end of Sanchez will be the end of his stay in Ny also. I think Tebow is more of a way for him to try and save his job without really abandoning Sanchez. I mean you can see throughout the seasons Rex and fans are getting increasing frustrated with Sanchez
Sounds like you need a woman in addition to a qb.
Really? We didn't lose anyone significant and last year our #1 WR was Roy Williams. ROY FUCKING WILLIAMS. It is now Brandon Marshall.
Urlacker and Briggs are another year older. Safety hasn't been addressed. Most importantly: J'Marcus Webb and/or Chris Williams will continue to play on the offensive line.
haha nice. Got the woman and the QB. Was lamenting the Age of the Sweatshirt I endured through HS and college
I think the tanking would have been more tolerable if they hadn't wasted 5 years trying to eek out .500
Astros . . . idk. Supposedly the farm system is no longer worst in the league. Like 28th now
Actually we drafted a safety in the third round who will compete for a starting role. The safeties need to stay healthy that's the problem. In the six games the Bears paired Wright and Conte as the starters, the team came away with eight interceptions while allowing just four touchdown passes and holding opponents to a passer rating if 68.9. As far as the defense getting older, that has been said for years. Could this be the year? Going by last season I doubt it. And yes our offensive line is a problem but at least there is competition at the LT spot now. Regardless, our new additions more than make up for our question marks and we will indeed be a much better team. And Martz is gone how could I forget that. Addition by subtraction!

Anyone else following NFL.coms top 20 games of 2011? Some interesting games on the list so far.
They are up to number 12. Here's the list:
20. Carolina Panthers at Arizona Cardinals Week 1
19. Green Bay Packers at Kansas City Chiefs Week 15
18. New York Giants at San Francisco 49'ers Week 10
17. New Orleans Saints at Tennessee Titans Week 14
16. San Diego Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs Week 8
15. Houston Texans at Cincinnati Bengals Week 14
14. Chicago Bears at Denver Broncos Week 14
13. New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons Week 10
12. New York Giants at New England Patriots Super Bowl XLVI
Week 10 and Week 14 were apparently good weeks of football.
Number one needs to be NYG vs GB Week 13.

Number 12 was the worst game of the season.

I hated the ending of that game. Giants Manage to scratch a lead late and the Packers just hop skip jump into the endzone, game over.

It didn't invalidate the rest of the excitement that was the remainder of the game though. It's easily the most entertaining game I watched last season even if the G-men did end up losing it.DeaconKnowledge said:

Ruined it for me. Not so much that the Packers won but they made the Giants look stupid in the process. It was like they said "We were just fucking with you. We'll take the W."
I can't really say any Steelers game I watched last year was that great, though maybe Ravens Steelers II was. I really can't remember anything but the final drive.
Niners - Saints was more exciting.

Will Blackmon covering Jordy Nelson will tend to make you look stupid, yes.DeaconKnowledge said:
Giants/Niners championship game will likely make the list as well.
That's a good one, yeah.Milchjon said:

Baltimore @ Pittsburgh will make it.
Maybe, the Cundiff game too....
I'm guessing #1 is Tebow v Pittsburgh

Can't believe theres only 1 Tebow game on the list so far.
Top 10 better be all Tebow!

If that was the number 1 game then there is something seriously wrong with the NFL.
I think number 1 will be Packers/Saints Week 1.

Not that it qualifies for the list, but the loss to the Seahawks the year before was more entertaining in that regard. The Niners were 13-3 and had one of the best, if not the best defense in the NFL. The Seahawks didn't even have a winning record and that Marshawn Lynch run will will be forever etched in the history of the league as the worst display of "attempted" tackling by a defense EVER.Talon- said:

Packers Giants was a more exciting game than Packers/Saints imo.
But that game set me up for an even more disappointing loss to them in the playoffs.
DeaconKnowledge

It wasn't a great game per se, but I really enjoyed them taking down the Broncos. Brady's awesome punt and the fight afterwards were fun to watch.
Which game did this happen in? I remember that one being good too.
I think that was the Bucs game.

Best game of the year was probably NO @ SF.
Umm Steelers Pats?
That was one of the best football games of all time. Even better than 2004 when rookie Ben went back to back against Eagles and Pats.
Ultimate feels good man game.
Meh, first time I got several of my friends together to watch a game in HD on a big screen. What a sad day that was, no wonder I couldn't get most of them to forget about stupid soccer and join me on the path of righteousness.
What a sexcellent introduction to the game of football.
The one guy in the group who had any interest in football before actually calls himself a Steelers fan. I'm still not completely convinced he even knows all of their divisional opponents, though. But I guess that's par for the course for the average Steelers fan.

It felt so good beating the Steelers at home to go to the Super Bowl.
