No definitely not, at least not from me. There are a few QBs I would take him over, and Sanchez is definitely one of them.

That's pretty much the most pathetic QB triangle in the history of the sport. Just jump off the bridge now, Fox.

Yep. Even if Tebow was behind that line the outcome would be the same. While Sanchez is terrible, the rest of the team is just as bad.
You forgot Brent
There's a loser coach somewhere that wants to take on a project. And a GM silly enough to follow. So maybe the jags. In reality he's getting cut and will likely take a Pacman Jones run out of football. The entire article about Titus is hilariously sad.

Replace a QB with a terrible completion percentage and an inability to hit his WR's with a QB that's even worse at doing that very thing.yankeehater said:
Oh but he can run! Yeah, but the Jets have proven they can't run the ball consistently and have a mess of an offensive line. But its Tebow! Are you then going to redesign your offense in the way that John Fox did in the hope that teams continue to do dumb shit over and over again to gift wins ala Denver last season? Much less with 5 games left in the season for a team that has almost no hope of hitting the playoffs?
No sense can be made of this. It's a good joke and its amusing to say for the purposes of this thread but come on - seriously? What football sense does it make and in what universe? The problem with the Jets isn't that Ryan won't sit Sanchez. It's that they have no viable option behind him unless you think McElroy is ready for prime time and he's a team pariah after the stuff he said last season, apparently.

I agree it's too little too late but I honestly think he should have been starting by the mid-point of the season (if not earlier). Why did they even bother signing Tebow? The Jets offense is so pathetically bad, why not try something different?
Sanchez is below average at best and he's underachieving even at that metric this season.

Both QBs have terrible completion %'s and their WRs are horrible. Passing the ball has gotten them no where this year. People forget that Denver couldnt run the ball last year before Tebow took over. With the schedule the Jets have left, if winning was their priority I think they would have a better shot with Tebow. Their OC has already designed an offense around the wildcat so that wouldnt be a problem, also the ball control offense would give the D a boost just like it did in Denver last year. Neither guy is a long term fix but I think Tebow would be better right now.
He's been doing a good enough job of that for the past 43 years.
Like Wedge said, someone will take a chance on him just because of his talent. It's not just having Megatron lining up opposite of him, T Young has speed, hands and can get open. Reminds me of MEsean Jackson for those reasons and the selfishness.
But I have this feeling he'll get kicked out of the league for a year, and come back telling everyone how sorry he is and how he was a dumb ass when he was younger.
Sure they will, as a free agent.

Exclusively running the ball out of the Tebow wildcat with that offensive line will? :jnc No offense but I'm still wondering if you're just pulling my leg at this point.yankeehater said:
The Jets season is over. Their defense is a shell of the unit that they had in the two AFC Championship runs and have done an extremely poor job of restocking lost talent. They don't have a running game but still claim to be ground and pound and they are hamstrung with Mark Sanchez whether they like it or not in 2013 thanks to that ridiculous contract they gave him. They are not sitting Sanchez, nor should they unless they want to go further into irrelevancy than they already are or they produce an actual viable alternative.

The Jets don't need God's help to be awful.
I'm not sure if I'm going to even bother watching the game now :|
The Ravens are just going to stack the box and focus on our short game, cause Batch doesn't have the arm strength to go deep. They'll probably just pressure/blitz us to hell, which is likely going to work since injuries have forced us to rearrange our offensive line.
The game is going to be ugly
Our only chance of winning is Batch getting knocked out early so we're forced to bring Hoyer in.

Really? Is this all it takes for the average Steelers fan to give up on their team? You guys really are spoiled.
Even us Lions fans watched games when Charlie Batch was here, geez.

You'll watch and cry into your beer like the rest of loserbros!
I can't have beer. I'm on a low-carb diet
Batch was one century younger when he last played for the Lions.

If I have to watch the Eagles get embarrassed by the Panthers. The Carolina Panthers. You should have to watch the still in-contention Steelers play the Ravens.

No lite either?
You're used to disappointment though. After consecutive Championship Game losses, and years of underachieving and missed opportunities, this season is simply par for the course to Eagle's fans.
Steeler fans are used to Super Bowl wins, appearances and at the very least, playoff appearances. And I'm being sarcastic about not watching the game, not only was the 2009 5-game losing streak so much worst than this, but I'm a Pirates fan so I'm accustomed to getting bent over and raw dogged by my sports teams.
Nope! It's basically straight liquor and/or mixed with diet sodas for me! It's a sad life, but the weight loss is worth it

I can't believe Jets fans still have hope.
I remember when I was in middle school(2000?), I begged my mom to buy me a Charlie Batch after a Monday Night game we had won and she did.
I rocked that jersey with swag for a couple weeks with a false hope we found our QB for the decade. Oh how wrong I was.
My friends always bring up my Charlie Batch #10 jersey when we get together.Futurevoid

Football Outsiders has an article on "Shutdown Lineman" or offensive line players and the sacks they've allowed this season.
http://footballoutsiders.com/under-pressure/2012/under-pressure-shutdown-tackles
The first chart is lineman with at least 500 snaps who've allowed no sacks.
The second is a chart of lineman who've allowed the fewest sacks.
This is a bit incomplete as it would be useful to see the amount of pressures/hurries to go along with the sack number. I mean what good are you if you haven't given up a sack but give up 10 QB hurries a game? Interesting reading nonetheless.

Best Jets QB in years!
You guys should give him a call, he's seriously a major upgrade over Sanchez/Tebow.
No clue why they haven't gone after Garrard yet. Hell, McNabb probably couldn't be a whole lot worse.
You are a hypocrite. You accept one virgin but deny another?Yep. I don't believe in fullbacks masquerading as QB's.
Also harson you cray. Ravens is always must see tv. Even with Batch.
Hey, that virgin struck down the Dark Lord Brady not once but twice. Repent.

I rocked that jersey with swag for a couple weeks with a false hope we found our QB for the decade. Oh how wrong I was.
I had a tendency to buy jerseys of players who would leave/be kicked off the team in the off-season. Two in a row in fact. Joey Porter and Santanio Holmes. The next jersey I got was James Harrison's, and unfortunately that was purchased while I was in the middle of dieting, and ~100 pounds later... that Jersey fits like a dress now :|
I have terrible luck with jerseys. My ex-roommate also destroyed my Authentic McCutchen jersey.
I want to buy a new Steelers and Pirates jersey sometime in the near future, but I'm going to make sure my body is at a point where it's not going to grow/shrink out of it fitting exactly how I want it to fit...
You mean ever
I have a feeling that this game is going to be like our away game at Baltimore last season, ie. a complete blowout, instead of the back and fourth close games we're the rivalry is known for. It's probably been damn near 5 seasons since I've missed a Steelers game, and I'm not going to end that streak now, but I'm fully expecting to be pissed the fuck off by day's end

pff between work, the gym, and personal time(sport watching, etc) I feel like getting married with children will make me fat, tired, depressed, and yell more at other people on the internet about stupid things.
Also I would probably become a shoe salesman.

Say what you want about their skill, but the Jets have two national championship quarterbacks on their team and all they do is back-up a loser.

Tebow is a garbage ass QB. Why are people in denial of this. He puts up the kinds of numbers that got Jamarcus Russell kicked out of the league. He is worse than Mark Sanchez, who himself is terrible. Change for the sake of change is something desperate losers do.

Would you start the National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood?
To be fair, we did win the first one and put an end to a Falcons streak too.
This season is a wash though.
I'm still excited for the next game and I don't even know why.
Peyton Manning threw six in one game. I wonder what the hell happened there.
http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=271111024
We believe in Tebow because we are not godless assholes.
All he does is win. I would have traded Ben for Tebow if I was a GM.
How the mighty have fallen. I remember the days when you rightfully referred to Ben as the Messiah, and now look what you've become, the worshiper of a false idol halfback. Heartbreaking.
