I do think that's what happened to Sanchez. His things worked, until they didn't, and he just doesn't have THAT particular skill of figuring out a new way back.
* btw - I don't even need a Superbowl this year - just a BE-fueled trip back to the playoffs and another knock-out of the Pats in Foxboro. The odds make Powerball look like flipping a coin, but - wow - I can hardly think of a more appropriate end to this bizarro season. I am already writing the 30 for 30 in my mind . . .

Could you imagine that scenario!
Jets go into Gillette, Brady hits thumb on helmet, Jets beat up Ryan Mallett.
We can all dream, but that would be effing hilarious!
