Ultimately, Mark Sanchez's success, or lack thereof, is an important piece of data, because it, along with Cassel's success or failure, marks Pioli's ability to assemble a championship team.

If we aren't asking questions of the team with the fewest wins in the NFL over the last three years, and we aren't critical of decisions that concern us, then why have an opinion at all? It's not because I, or anyone else, wants the team to fail, it's because we want them to succeed. I'd gladly take being wrong about players that I didn't like. I hope Tyson Jackson has 10 sacks next game. But that doesn't mean that I shouldn't be both critical and skeptical of the moves of this team.*

*Notice I didn't say cynical*

That is a fair take Hamas.

But in all honesty I don't think Sanchez was ever in the mind Pioli. During his very first pc he said Matt was a special person and player. I knew right then he would be our QB.
