2018 NFL Power Rankings: Biggest QB Teases For All 32 Teams
By Erik Lambert
It’s hard not to see Mark Sanchez as the ultimate tease. Here’s a man who came into the league with loads of hype. He was a good-looking kid from California who thrived at USC. The Jets traded up in the 2009 draft to take him at #5 overall. So right away expectations were elevated. Then it got worse when Sanchez guided the team to two-straight AFC championship games.
So immediately he was propped up as the guy who would finally break the Jets out of their Super Bowl slump. Then things crashed hard back to earth in 2012, forever encapsulated by the infamous “Butt Fumble.” Sanchez finished his career in New York with 69 touchdowns and 69 interceptions, people calling him out as a fraud.
