Re: Sources indicate Manning to be released
Part of that resentment from the players comes directly from Rex and how he will NEVER criticize the QB under any circumstance. If Rex will call a spade a spade sometimes, maybe they wouldn't feel that way. Instead he gets up there and just lies right through his teeth, coddles him and never says an even remotely critical word about him.
But again, Manning isn't going to the Jets. They just fired the OC, he was the fall guy for 2011. Sanchez has one more year to be protected, and I suspect if it doesn't go well both Rex and Sanchez will be out of jobs. Rememebr he was the one who just HAD to have Sanchez and wasted a bunch of picks and big money trading up for him.

Re: Sources indicate Manning to be released
Is Rex really the one who had to have Sanchez or was it the GM? The Jets system is no different that the Ravens. The coach has input but it's the GM who makes the picks and is in charge of personnel. Rex is no different than Harbaugh or Billick in that respect. I do agree though that Rex love to talk and has no problem throwing his support behind someone to the public and then running him out of town in private.

Re: Sources indicate Manning to be released
If I were Peyton, I would go to the 49ers, not the Jets. Can you imaging how good the 49ers would be if they had a real QB?

Re: Sources indicate Manning to be released
No team is giving a rookie head coach that kind of authority. Doesn't happen here or with the Jets. Even big name coaches like Coughlin and Fox couldn't get that. We all know Belechick get it. I've heard Marvin Lewis finally got it with his last contract. Pete Carroll wouldn't coach in the NFL without it. Jeff Fisher has made it a condition for whatever job he takes since he never had it with the Titans. The days when the Head Coach got full control are long gone.

Re: Sources indicate Manning to be released
Rex wanted Sanchez. He said that it came down to Sanchez and Freeman. He said that he brought both of them in for interviews and felt that Sanchez was better at analyzing the scheme/diagnosing plays. He absolutely wanted Mark Sanchez, fought for him and admitted so.

that's how I sees it. I think they probably overacheived, esp beating the Pats in the playoffs, but the mgt and fan base need to see improvement and hope.
now there's an article quoting DMase about how hard a worker Sanchez was and how hard he studied etc.
