Is it Tebow Time for the Jets?


No Darrelle Revis.  No Santonio Holmes.  No Dustin Keller.  Mark Sanchez coming off one of the worst games of his career.  It all spelled disaster for the Jets Monday night.

Despite all the injuries, the Jets had the ball with a chance to win the game at the two minute warning.  That's until Mark Sanchez's pass to tight end Jeff Cumberland went off his hands and into the arms of Kareem Jackson.  The Jets lost Monday night to the undefeated Texans, 23-17.

While the fault does not go directly to Sanchez, it was another poor showing from Gang Green's quarterback.  Sanchez was 14 for 31 for 230 yards and two picks.  His QB rating was 10.0.  Has the 4th year quarterback reached the breaking point?

Sanchez heard boos from the fans at MetLife Stadium all night.  Jets fans seem ready to move on and put Tim Tebow behind center.  Every time Tebow came off the field and Sanchez came on, the boos emerged.  How long until Jets fans give up and start showing up?  While the attendance was announced at 79,088, there were nowhere near that many people there Monday night.  Selling tickets will be a hard thing for Woody Johnson's team to do for the remainder of the season...especially after Johnson publicly stated he would rather have Romney win the Presidency over the Jets winning games.

It has become a nightmare in Jets land.  Their owner is making comments that should not have been made.  GM Mike Tannenbaum did not do much this offseason to improve a team that missed out on the playoffs last season.  The quarterback that was given a $58 million extension this offseason has been abysmal since his impressive week one performance.  The injuries are clearly the major issue at hand, but Sanchez's play is not going to put people in the seats.  While it is only week six, and the Jets are just 2-3, it might be time for Tebow to take over.

It's Tebow time for the Jets.
