40 years without a franchise QB
While I think Sanchez is getting the shaft a bit in that he has no weapons on O - it is clear that he is not a "franchise QB" and is serviceable at best.
you would think in 40 years the Jets would get at least 1 franchise QB - instead: Richard Todd, Matt Robinson, Ken O'Brien, Pat Ryan, Browning Nagle, Boomer, Neil O'Donnel, Glen Foley, Vinny, Lucas, Chad, old Favre, Sanchez..... blah.... |

That said, you're right. I believe Kenny O'Brien is the only drafted QB to make an All-Pro team. |

Chad probably showed the most promise, at least he did in 2002. He looked like he could be a legitimate top tier QB for many years. Then the injuries started. Sanchez has almost never looked like the guy outside of a couple playoff games (and he had almost nothing to do with qualifying for the playoffs). Ken O'Brien was pretty good, but just never quite top tier.
Vinny and Favre were already vets when they came here, as pointed out |

I see the 88 to 97 period all over again.

70s - Richard Todd - not close to a franchise qb 80's: Kenny O - would have loved to see what he could do with a good OL but though decent not close to franchise 90's: Browning Nagle: complete flop 2000's so far Chad - If he didnt blow out that already weak arm I think he could have had a real good career but not franchise QB Sanchez - is what he is - a game mgr. So 5 drafted shots at Franchise QBs - one each decade and each fell well short - I hate franchises like GB who go right from 15 yrs of Favre to another 15 of Rodgers....some of those fans have never lived through these QB debacles! |

I have a friend of a friend who says Nagleis in the business world and a good guy....I picked him as a user name not to mock him but more of a frustration as the symbol of Jet futility in that the Jets had Favre the top player on their board but couldnt find a way to move up 1 freaking spot to get him...settling for Browning 1 pick later. Rest is history....

We passed on Marino..... alot of teams did.... Payton Manning opted to stay in school when Jets had the overall no. 1....
Really enjoyed watching Testaverde play for Jets.... Pennington too.... really was hoping to see this kid Sanchez develop... |

O'Brien on any other team would have been stellar.

This. Parcells could not guarantee Archie he would take Peyton numero uno. Parcells was in win now mode. He got them within one game, but this would have been huge.

Chad was a franchise qb. But injuries derailed that.
If you give Chad the health that Sanchez has had through 4 years, it would have been a beautiful thing. |

Chad was going to be a franchise QB but we were screwed from that.
Sanchez isn't it and it sucks... Hope the team is aggressive again and adds a guy high in the draft. It hurts having to do that, but Sanchez clearly isn't the guy. |

We need to encourage Woody to change the administration. Send letters directly to his office expressing your outrage and threatening to dump your tickets. It's the only way that he will take action...hit him in the pocketbook.

You think Chad is healthy enough to play?
