It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Trying to take off my Jet-hating goggles for a moment as I do think Sanchez will improve for a few reasons. 1) He has some decent receiving weapons to work with. 2) He showed some good poise in some pretty intense road playoff games. 3) There were many games where he was so incredibly bad, he has nowhere to go but up!
On the flip side, losing Thomas Jones and some talent on the o-line could impact his ability to make plays (additional pressure and d's playing more of a pass-d first set.
Not saying hes the next Marino but a 3200 yd, 20+ TD, 60% comp% 10-12 INT year is not out of the question.
But will he recover from being dumped by Meadow Soprano? ;-).
Unofficial numbers for Sanchez in 11on11s today: 8 of 17, two INTs (both by @A_Cromartie31 )
Golid said 9-7.
The Jets passing game could get better, a lot better, but that all depends on how good the running game is. The way I look at it, the running game took a hit. So, we shall see how Sanchez plays without the comfort of a formidable run game. I could be wrong - the run game could be just as strong as last year - I just think it won't be.
What Jets fans fail to see, in my opinion, is how essential Revis is to the defense. Revis is a shut down corner. You can blitz like crazy with that kind of trust. Without it - burn city. My guess is that every QB that the Jets play this season are hoping Revis holds out for the long-haul and that no deal is made. As a Pats fan I hope he sits on his ass all year.
I laugh at the folks that say Cromartie and Wilson will be just as good. Child please! Wilson is a rookie, folks.
Jets fans must be worked up about how great Sanchez's stats will be this year — or at least one of the guys who cover the team thinks so. Manish Mehta of the Daily News tweeted his stats from 11 on 11 work today.

Jets were 9-7 last year and somehow made it in the playoffs. Meanwhile we've missed the playoffs at 9-7 twice in the last 10 years. Some luck.
Correction: In the past ten years, beginning in 2001, the Patriots have missed the playoffs twice. Once at 9-7 and once at 11-5. That luck thing is even worse than you wrote!
People see the additions without any of the subtractions.
They added LT, but didn't lose Thomas and Washington.
They added Cromartie, but didn't lose Shepherd. Also, the Cormartie they got is the one from 2007, not 08/09.
They added Holmes, but forget he's suspended for the first 4 games.
Sanchez is GOING to get better, because every QB gets better their second year, especially those with god awful rookie seasons...
This is the logic we fight, ladies and gentlemen... bask in its glory.
I think the mikes assesments are fair. Get that greeny is a jets homer..but I think between 8 and 8 and 10 and 6 is reasonable prediction for the pats this season. We're ok offensively but IMHO we're going to go through major growing pains with backers and secondary.
Quote me:
The Patriots will be a slightly above average team at best in 2010.
9-7 at the very highest.
