I give Matt Slauson credit; he is man enough to own up to his words unlike all of the other anonymous sources and players. If you are playing a grown man's game you should act like a grown man and own up to your words or keep your mouth shut. No one is playing well enough on this team (except maybe Nick Mangold) to be bad mouthing another teammate.
Sanchez has now had 3 1/2 years to prove he is worthy of being a franchise QB and I really do not think he has proven that. Maybe he could be under a new coach or with a better supporting cast, but I think his days with the Jets are numbered barring a dramatic turn of events. So why not see what you have in Tebow or McElroy. I am not saying Tebow is a great QB (he is a great athlete I know) or he is the solution to their problems. Truth is the Jets really do not have a talented enough coaching staff, the playbook or the type of receivers or running backs (ok the Jets really have no talent at either position) to really let Tebow work his magic like he did in Denver. As for McElroy, he is not as great of an athlete as Tebow and Sanchez, but what he lacks in athletic skills he makes up for in intelligence (he scored 43 out of 50 on the Wonderlic and applied for but did not win a Rhodes scholarship). In 2009 he also led his Alabama team to a victory over Tebow's Florida Gators in the SEC Championship game and to win the National Championship vs. the Texas Longhorns. So he is no stranger to big stages. As much as I would love to see Tebow start, the Jets are in a free-fall and I don't know that anyone can really save them.
