Is Mark Sanchez an upgraded version of Kyle Boller?

Yeah, this year, which is Sanchez's best year and Flacco's worst. Over their careers, it's not even close.

I do believe that Mark Sanchez is better than Kyle Boller.

you're right, Sanchez has been to the AFCC- twice. got me there ;)

I'm not sure why some have to hate on the guy, he's a decent QB and very comparable to Joe.

Joe Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens are 4-0 against the most competitive division in football.

Boller ruined the chances of playoff capable teams. All they had to do was plug in McNair, or even Wright, and it was playoffs.

No comparison at all. Sanchez might be along for the ride, but he isn't sabotaging his teams chances like Boller did.

Because if he were on a team with even a good defense, he'd be at best .500 and more likely .400 over his career and never sniffed a playoff game.

Guess Trent Dilfer was pretty similar to Flacco too, eh?

I didn't realize fumbles has nothing to do with pass protection. If joe wasnt mauled during every pass, he wouldn't lead the league in fumbles.

Interceptions, on the other hand, are a more QB independent stat (although not perfect). But regardless of stats, I've seen too many red zone turnovers by Sanchez for anyone to convince me they are of equal caliber. Joes not all that, but he's not Mark Sanchez.

Sanchez is joe flacco, combined with the untimely mistakes of Romo, or in other words, Kyle Boller.

at least he complets more than 50% of his passes... unlike someone ;)

OK I got it, you hate Sanchez. But back it up with some facts if you want to make a case. There are way worse QBs in the league than Mark Sanchez. And if his receivers didn't drop so many passes he'd have much better stats.

He can't, there is a reason Boller was given up on in Raider land of all places after one performance. Sanchez isn't getting replaced by some guy off waivers any time soon.

Your response only makes sense if PSU is claiming that Sanchez is the worst QB in the league. He's not. He's arguing that Sanchez's best year is statistically similar to Joe's worst and therefor the idea that they're comparable is laughable.

And he's right.

Mark is a mediocre QB who's success is entirely predicated on playing well enough not to screw it up for the rest of his team. Joe is expected to win games for us regularly and had done so.

If Sanchez were a 5th round pick, he might not even be starting right now. The jets will take forever to realize he trash because of what they invested in him (much like Boller in baltimore)

can you provide some facts or stats? I guess as long as someone says Sanchez sucks it has to be true. He's got a better percentage, more yards per attempt, more TDs, and less fumbles to cite a few

Of all days to be bashing Sanchez, look at Joe's stats. Luckily we have a great running team.
