Mark Sanchez deep, TD!! Mark Sanchez right side, TD!! Mark Sanchez left TD, Mark Sanchez down the Middle, TD!!! That's all it seemed the broadcasters had to say about the Mark Sanchez and his game vs the Bengals. He lit up the Bengals secondary for a astonishing 5 TD and Franchise best 499 Yards, which made him top 10 in Passing Yards in a game in NFL history.
The Jets top threats on offense, our big game receivers are going to haunt the dreams of the Bengals defenders all season long. Just read these stats from our #1, #2, and #3 receiving corp, and tell me if you would not be scared.
#1 Jericho Cotchery 4 REC 150 Yards 37.4 AVG 2 TD
#2 Braylon Edwards 4 REC 109 27.2 AVG 1 TD
#3 Santonio Holmes 5 REC 121 Yards 24.2 AVG 2 TD
WOW!! That's amazing, this was the first game Santonio Holmes became a full time slot receiver, and if you have been watching Santonio games, you knew he deserved to be a #1 or #2 guy. But Holmes did not hold his head, he just kept his head up, and did his job, and his job is to make plays.
*Interview with WR Santonio Holmes*
*Reporter*- Santonio, what did you feel being downgraded to the slot receiver after starting all season?
*Holmes*- Downgrade? That is what you called a downgrade? No, it's called strategy. Now Rex Ryan may be a defensive guy, but he is also a strategist and I knew he was just cooking up something in the mix. Our job as receivers on this team, is to make Mark Sanchez feel comfortable. Me, Braylon, Jericho and Dustin Keller, know that we have a young QB, who has lots of potential, and we know sooner or later, he is going to take control of the games, and win them for us, but until that day gets here, we need to do all we can to make sure he is comfortable, and that we are catching the ball, and holding on to after the catch.
*Reporter*- Would you enjoy becoming the full time slot receiver in the future?
*Holmes*- Hey, if we are going to win like this why not? I mean, I know what type of receiver I am, Braylon knows what type of receiver he is, and Jericho knows what type of receiver he is, there should be no problem none of us could make plays. As long as we three receivers are on the field, especially at the same time, you cant stop us. And we are going to prove that, like we did today.
Those are confident words coming from Holmes in that interview, but who could blame him. His team is leading the AFC in wins, if the season ended today, they would have Home Field Advantage, a bye week in the playoffs, and they would look like a Super Bowl Favorite. The playoffs are a long way from now, but I like the Jets chances already, besides The Packers, the Jets to me can beat anybody. And if we get another chance at the Pack, with Sanchez's experience, we are going to destroy them.
