This, audience, is the difference between being able to read, and functional literacy.

Read that Hamas post again. He didn't say that it was the stadium that was responsible for Sanchez' atrocious game. All he said regarding the stadium was that the Meadowlands has tougher conditions than Arrowhead.

While true, Cassel threw for 300+ yard games at Foxboro. So you also can't make the argument that Cassel hasn't endured the conditions yet.

It's definitely an interesting thing to watch develop. There was very little talk going into the draft about Sanchez's lack of experience in the conditions.

You are right. It was Mecca. But Hamas continued the crap when Arrowhead was brought up. Besides. Mecca, Hamas, what's the difference?

How come when Brodie Croyle screwed up here nobody said "Wait, he's only 22!!"?

A couple of them died because you could see he tried to lob the ball which was stupid for that weather but not surprising since it was his first time playing in it.

Well, first, that's a big throw to take away from his arsenal because he uses it quite a bit. In particular, he does it when he tries to escape pressure and heaves it on the run. He throws it with tremendous accuracy, but it's worth noting that that ball is going to be affected in cold conditions. That would be my biggest concern. He's going to have learn to become reliant on fired passes.

The other flaw this exposes is that Sanchez also holds on to the ball too long way too often. If he was quicker and more decisive, he could throw the ball more often on his plant, gun it into open space when the receiver hits his break. When he takes a little longer, he either throws on the run or he does what Green does--find a soft pocket in the zone and throw to a spot which doesn't require nearly as much zip on the ball. That's something he was criticized for in college but it's just now coming to light. Maybe he fixes it with experience. Then again, maybe he doesn't.

The other concern is something I think is fixable. His fired balls didn't look great either. They seem to often tail on him. He's going to have to work with the QBs coach on getting a much crisper ball out of his hands.

Anybody change opinions today? In this thread? Great!

See you next week, same time, same channel. (And the week after that, and the week after that....)

You're on a roll.

Played like a true rookie QB today, didn't break Namath's record for most interceptions in a game though. Forced a lot of throws trying to make a play and it backfired on his ass. Part of the growing pains of a rookie.

Mecca · 10-18-2009, 06:23 PM

If that was really the case that every west coast QB would be downgraded and there are numerous successful QB's that never played in adverse conditions until their NFL careers started.

Did somebody say QB pressures???

Also...throwing Manning's name in this thread is pointless. 3700 yards and 26 TDs

In OT, there was the "drive for five," and Sanchez came through...

Tiger's Fan · 10-18-2009, 06:33 PM

At least he's trying to win, because he's throwing all those picks and all.

Sanchez wanted to keep Buffalo out of our draft pick area, win!
