Santonio Holmes takes self out of game WOW


Recommended Posts

Word out of NYC is that with about 2 & half mins left and jets down by 9, he went off on Sanchez in the huddle and in protest took himself out of the game. Dudes a team captain too. Wow just wow. Idc what you think of your QB you don't take yourself out of the game in that situation.

Yup, they showed him pouting on the bench in the last few minutes when the Jets were trying to drive to stay in the game. Probably because he didn't have a catch and broke his consecutive games string. Nice to see the wheels starting to come off the Rexwagon.

Anyone else read that Mike Lombardi article on the Jets on nfl.com? He describes Sanchez as requiring the open man on each play to be identified for him:

....He is not a quick reader of the progression, therefore with every call, Schottenheimer has to tell him where to expect the open man. If the call is a bad one, then Sanchez starts to panic and looks nervous. The most effective pass play he runs is the fake handoff, deep crosser, which has no read -- just fake and come out throwing. The more Sanchez has to read off the play, the better chance the play has to break down. Therefore, the Jets must keep things simple.

 

It does sorta make Sanchez sound like the sort of QB a smart wideout would find frustrating. That said, I agree that to go off on the QB in the huddle and stalk out of the game is inexcusable.

 

Cue "Holmes cut by Jets, any interest?" on TBD

I thought sanchez showed great composure in that situation marching his team from midfield and scoring a TD.

Jets are what happen when you build through free agency.
