We shoudl have 11 guys playing Leon Washington everytime he is on the field. He was all they had the other night. They have very little on the outside.

I'm a little surprised they named Sanchez the starter before the conclusion of the 3rd preseason game, though guess this isn't official and they would still have some wiggle room ?

There's a number of things working in his favor:
1. The Jets are a running-heavy team

2. Sanchez was the 5th pick in the draft (making 5th pick money)

3. His compeition is Kellen Clemens

There wasn't much in the way of this declaration.

Rex saw our run defense and probably decided that he did not need a QB to beat us.

Sanchez didn't look half bad against the Giants on Saturday night.

13/20, 149 yds, 1 TD in a little more than a half of the game played.

Sanchez took advantage a couple times of finding wide open receivers in blown pass coverages by the Giants. He did show a little poise in avoiding the rush though.

I think the Texans ought to really benefit with the suspensions to the Jets pass defense though. Should be a fun game to watch.

For me the most intriguing player in that game wasn't Vick but a veteran NFL player at DE for the Eagles who they report might have a shot at making the Phillys 53-man roster. Some ole, well-traveled NFL dude by the name of Jason Babin.
Sanchez and the Jets offense were in just one series as they marched down the field impressively for a TD (mostly on the rook QBs passes), and the Eagles did the same against the Jets. Difference was the Jets played there starters in the first series (both sides of the ball), while the Eagles played
no starters at all in the game.
