SHOES: Sanchez Gets a Boxing Lesson

File Under: Miami Dolphins, New Orleans Saints, Mark Sanchez, Superdome

Every quarterback is going to, for lack of a better phrase, get punched in the mouth at some point. For Mark Sanchez it wasn’t just one punch but a flurry of blows in New Orleans.

It came from a Saints defense that looks a lot like the Jets attack style we’ve seen give QBs with far more experience than Sanchez so much trouble in the first month of the season. Eight men on the line breathing fir… More

SHOES: For Mark, Jets, This Could Be Fun

File Under: Brett Favre, Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Bart Scott, Mark Sanchez

There will be a learning curve, no question about it. But for the Jets, there’s a very good chance that Mark Sanchez taking over at quarterback now is the best thing that could have happened for this franchise … and not just in the long term.

Make no mistake, just because Joe Flacco and Matt Ryan did what they did last year in no way guarantees any similar success for Sanchez this year. But i… More

SHOES: Two L's in a Row, But All Is Not Lost

SHOES: Why No. 4? For Third-and-15 at the 15

File Under: Eric Mangini, Thomas Jones, Laveranues Coles, New England Patriots, Brett Favre, Dustin Keller

The Jets didn’t get Brett Favre to light up a highlight reel. The Jets didn’t get Brett Favre so they’d be on the big TV game more often. The Jets didn’t get Brett Favre so ESPN would have reporters on their beat and extra cameras in their locker room. The Jets didn’t get Brett Favre to score points like a pinball machine, although it doesn’t hurt when it happens.

The Jets got Brett F… More

SHOES: Hidden Yardage Was a Killer vs. Pats

File Under: patriots, Bill Parcells, Brett Favre, field position, hidden yardage

Amidst all the hysteria of the play call second-guessing and the "did the Jets forget they have Brett Favre?" nonsense (and by the way, that is nonsense ... the Jets are running many of the same plays Favre ran in Green Bay ... but I digress), what seemed to be lost in the background noise after the Patriots game was the single biggest reason the Jets came up short. Field position was, by far, the… More
