I wouldn't be expecting some great showing, honestly. Remember that Braylon is older and slower now, and he's also injured (how bad, idk). Not to mention, Sanchez can't hit deep balls anymore.

If we got a great performance, it'd be nothing short of a miracle.

I understand that, but the body can only go so far.

I'm hoping for the best, but I'm also preparing myself for disappointment.

Now THIS is the attitude of a REAL Jets fan.

I'm hoping for 10 catches, 150 yards and 2 TDs for my favorite Jets receiver from 2009-2011.

Yes, let me go drink the kool-aid and expect a 100+ yard/2 TD day from an aging receiver who's injured.

How about you not question someone's fan-hood when you have no reason to, jerk.

He's a little banged up and two years older - he's not freakin' George Blanda!



He's not Gaylord Perry!



He's 29.

Two years younger than Andre Johnson.

Two years younger than Wes Welker.

Four years younger than Santana Moss.

Five years younger than Reggie Wayne.

Six years younger than Randy Moss.

Chill with the old talk peeps! If his knee is okay he can definitely go catch the ball.

Sanchez was such a tease. He struggled as a rookie but showed flashes like that that showed he had potential in this league. Then he improves a good amount in year two. Ever since, he flat-lined in year three and regressed to (arguably) worse than rookie form in year four.

I'm just saying to curve your expectations.

I have honestly seen this in lots of athletes, espc. kids - where when things are easy for them they relax and play well. They do it without thinking. But when times get tough or they have to make adjustments - they just lose the ability to play without thinking about it first. It's like telling a bumblebee that he can't really stay aloft.

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 . . .

1 reception, 6 yards, that's it.

I mean, we're talking about the offense that has held Tim Tebow to 0 touchdowns since putting on a uniform.

I think Sparano needs to dial up that play the Jets ran vs. the Colts a few years back when BE caught that 80 yd TD. It was a simple route down the sideline, but it worked because Sanchez used that very good pump fake of his. Haven't seen the pump all that often this season. maybe a handful of times
