Who said anything about Sanchez being "good". I simply made it known that as a developing quarterback, Sanchez improved last year. The negative critics will say otherwise. Once again... He improved last year.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 8 games in which he threw multiple INT's. Last year Sanchez had 5 games in which he threw multiple INT's. The difference? In 2009/2010 Sanchez combined for games of 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4 and 5 INT games. Last year Sanchez had games of 2, 2, 2, 2 and 3 INT games.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 1 INT per every 26.4 drop backs. Last year, Sanchez threw 1 INT per every every 30.1 drop backs.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 35 TD's/33 INT's. Last year alone, Sanchez put up 32 TD's/18 INT's.

During his first two seasons, he combined for a completion percentage of 69.1%. Last year, Sanchez improved his accuracy with a 56.7 completion percentage. Has improved his accuracy each of his first 3 seasons. Expecting at least 60% this season.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 7 games of multiple TD's (2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3 & 3). Last year alone, Sanchez put up 9 games of multiple TD's of 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3 and 4 TD performances.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 8 games of 250+ yards. Last year alone, Sanchez put up 5 games of 250+ yards.

During first first two seasons, he combined for 2 games of 300+ yards. Last year alone, Sanchez put up 3 games of 300+ yards.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 7 games of 80-90 QB ratings, 1 game of 90-100 QB Ratings and 7 games of 100+ QB ratings. Last year alone Sanchez put up 4 games of 80-90 QB ratings, 4 games of 90-100 QB ratings and 2 games of 100+ QB ratings.

During his first two seasons, he combined for 7 games of 60% completion percentages or higher (61.4%, 63.2%, 63.6%, 64.9%, 65.5%, 70% and 76.5%). Last year alone, Sanchez put up 7 games of 60% completion percentages or higher (60.0%, 61.4%, 61.5%, 61.9%, 65.5% and 70.8% and 71.4%). He's not improving upon his accuracy?

During his first two seasons, he combined for 9 games of 50% completion percentages or below (34.5%, 38.1%, 38.6%, 42.1%, 46.7%, 47.6%, 47.7%, 50.0% & 50.0%). As a 3rd year player Sanchez only had 2 games of 50% or below (31.4% and 48.6%). Would you still like to claim that "Sanchez hasn't improved upon his accuracy"?

Sanchez improved last season, regardless of what NE fans and/or negative critics have to say.

He made all of those improvements, despite being surrounding by a couple awful situations. Plaxico Burress was a useless between the 20's WR due to A.) Aging and B.) Spending almost 3 years away from the game of football inside of a prison cell. Sanchez was forced to work with a #2 WR in Burress who couldn't land a training camp invite with the Panthers this offseason. A slot WR in Derrick Mason who was (and is) completely washed up. Couldn't get any type of production out of Mason for 5 weeks. A raw 5th round slot WR in Jeremy Kerely who was thrown into the fire due to Mason's release. Ferguson having his worst season at LT since his rookie year. Mangold getting hurt, missing games, and taking a while to recover back to full strength. Moore was recovering from offseason hip surgery and had his worst season in quite some time. Hunter became a true disaster on the offensive line. None of these are "excuses" as the Sanchez critics like to call them, they're facts. Anyone who seen the Ravens disaster (where we started an undrafted rookie in Baxter) would have understood that not even Montana had a chance to survive that game. They talk about Mark's turnovers; 5 happened during that 1 disaster alone. Sanchez improved as a quarterback, despite some pretty awful situations surrounding him; only a complete tool would say otherwise.
