It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I know it's just a typo by the OP, but it looks close enough to the "Giants vs. Jets Priapism game", which is kind of how I felt watch the Jets embarrass themselves on national TV...
Had my man Tebs hit the wide open Hill on the goal line, scoring a TD via pass, it would have been all over for Sanchez this year fanbase wise. Man, is my guy inaccurate or what?
I2) Sanchez is far from a born leader who has never had the respect of his team mates...then he had the nerve to make a comment in a presser which insinuated they HAD to respect hm jus because he was QB1 at the time. Idiot.
Bottom line, Sanchez should of stayed in school for his senior year. Many feel the only reason he came out was because Bradford,Tebow and McCoy decided to commit for another year which would improve his draft status and money earned. From his alleged assault to his lousy QB play previous to his final year he had fail written all over him imo. My perception of his coaching is the kid was coddled and really didn't have to earn it like most do. Hence why he has struggled because he doesn't know how to really put the work in. I partially blame the Jets coaching staff for some of his failures.
In his defense, it was an across the body throw that was downfield, and his WR didn't come back to him when he began scrambling.
Yup, he's a lefty and it was a rookie mistake not to come back a bit when the QB scrambles out of the pocket. Understandable 'cause the WR let himself be too conscious of the goal line but at a time when nobody was around him. First catch the ball. Then score the TD.

There really is no excuse for Tebow short-hopping that pass four yards in front of Hill. Tebow threw across his body because his mechanics were pathetic. Tebow didn't have his feet underneath him and he wound up like he was trying to throw some guy out at the plate from right field.
Same play. WR is all alone one yard deep in the end zone on the left sideline. How many right handed QBs can you name who would put the ball right in the middle of his his body for a TD from the 29 yard line? In a pre-season game.
All the elite guys make that throw, and certainly the 2nd tier QBs do as well. You know who also screws that throw up? Michael Vick, He'd have his feet off the ground and also throw that ball wild across his body. Vick has an amazing arm, but that is the sort of crap he pulls a couple of times a game that really hurts the Eagles.
All these analysts have talked about how Tebow isn't pro-QB material and I wondered if he could change his mechanics and evolve to being a competent to good QB like a Carson Palmer, Rex Grossman, Fitzpatrick, Hasselback or Cassell - not elite but good enough to take a team to the playoffs and make a run based on the strength of the team.
That play crystallized for me the basic issues that doom Tebow to being a curiosity. Too bad, too. The Jets offense played hard when he was in there - he has that ability to fire up his teammates.
Worst decision they ever made was to swap out Mangini for this boob. Mangini built that team into the force it was in 2009.
I'm not going to get into the Tebow bashing with you, and I wasn't absolving Tebow of blame. I was breaking down one play, and I've seen the play about a dozen times or more. It was a tougher throw to make than you give credit for, and the WR needed to come back. both players needed to do better on that play.
And all elite QBs toss up garbage on occasion, so the "all elite QBs" argument really doesn't hold any water.
Do you mean split between laughing and crying?Is the crowd split 50/50?
The real question is whether that throw surprised John Elway or not.And all elite QBs toss up garbage on occasion,
