Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
Maybe Arizona kick the tires there...although they'll probably be kicking tires on every available QB worth even a sliver of a shit. I can see Vick or Sanchez playing there next season, especially with Fitzgerald waiting to make them look good.
Vick would make more sense in Arizona I would think. I guess that's because as awful as Vick has been this year he's still got more talent in his pinky than Sanchez has in his entire body. I mean I'm comparing butt fumble and set up the punt for my RB instead of the go ahead FG for the win vs Vick the turnover machine.
Fuck it. I'd probably just blow my whole wad on offensive line and see if any of those QB's on the roster do better with more than .0000001 seconds in the pocket. Althought Vick to Arizona would just make for great comic relief giving Arizona 2 shit QB's in a row.

Vick would not survive in Arizona. Thier offensive line is the worst in the league by something like 20 orders of magnitude. It's fucking terrible and that guy is made of candy glass.

Wait, that article is retarded. Who the hell is going to trade for Sanchez? I wouldn't want him as the Redskins 2nd string practice squad QB.

Why don't they just make the franchise tag a 2 or 3 year contract instead of a single year contract? Set it so the team has to pay the 25 or whatever % increases for the average value of the top 5 guys the 2nd and 3rd year if it lasts that long then we'd stop seeing players bitch about being franchised. The franchise tag does seem really shitty to play under. IMO, when a player has 1 year left on his contract there should be a league rule that a team has to either resign the player to a new contract at the time there is 1 year left or they let that player hit the free market. The team can still match any offer another team makes and retain the player but they can't just hang a guy out to dry with 1 year left on his contract...
They say guys play hard in contract years but what about guys that blow out a knee in a contract year or a shoulder like Brees did? That shit aint right either. Another thing they should do is if a player gets injured then give that cap space back to the team.
So what are the holes to these ideas?

Yeah, basically because the players in no way shape or form want to give the owners any more abilities or powers to lock them into short term deals. Even two years is not enough and if a team really wanted to lock up a player longer at that price (top 5% + yearly raises) they very easily could work out those deals.
A 3+ year franchise tag would be unacceptable by the owners and unnecessary because odds are a player would accept a contract like that.
A 1-2 year franchise tag would be unacceptable by the players because they don't like short-term deals and already begrudge the current franchise tag.

Tebow really is an awful qb fundamentally but that said, there are plenty of teams that could upgrade by switching to him... especially the jets. I really just don't get why the jets don't toss their hands up and yell fuck it and put tebow on the field as a starter. What have they got to lose? Nothing the jets have done at any point in the last few years has made any sense. They are sky-rocketing themselves to being one of the worst coached teams in the nfl's history, imo. Sure tebow is bad, but why the fuck go for him if giving him a game starting is completely out of the question?
I think the Jets waited too long to use Tebow now. And unless they get rid of Rex, why would he want to stay on a team where the HC obviously could give 2 fucks about the guy? Send his ass to Jacksonville where him and the fans will be happy for the next 10+ yrs.

I figured the coaches gave him that one drive Monday night as a "see? now stfu and fuck off" to the owner and fans. I'd say at least from the fan perspective it looked convincing. Didn't do shit having him out there really.
Just send him to Jax where the fans actually want him and things can't get much worse anyway.

I think the ownership is afraid that if they put Tebow out, and he does well, they will be stuck with him because the fans will demand it. If Peyton had not hit the free agent market, the Broncos would stuck with him. Jets will have a #1 priority of dumping Sanchez to whomever and Tebow will be next.

I think their strategy is to let Tebow go in the offseason, and to try again with Sanchez next year sans Timmy. Sanchez is due 8+ million next year, and I believe Rex still believes he can be a franchise QB.
This is the Jets, though, so who knows?
Even the Jets have to have given up on Sanchez at this point. They need to just move on, give Greg a whirl these last 2 games and see if he has a chance to be the guy next year or if they need to look elsewhere. They could always just keep Sanchez as a backup to Greg or draft someone.
If I was the Jets I'd shop him for ANY trade that was reasonable that could get some of that money away then find some better offensive coaches AGAIN and see what Greg or someone else can do.

I still don't understand how the fuck that happened. Like, how can you not see your own guy right there and still run into him, looking as if you are accelerating, and hit him so hard that you fumble the damn ball...What?
This doesnt get you excited?

No shit theywantto trade Sanchez, but no one will pick up that contract.
It will cost (in cap space) the Jets$3 million more if they release Sanchez than if they keep him. Keep in mind, the whole reason he got the extension was that they were way over the cap this year.
Sanchez, barring some string of injuries in front of him, will never start another NFL game. But there is a very good chance he is a very expensive backup on the Jets next year.
