Joe Namath vs. Mark Sanchez: QB's Lash Out at Each Other

Joe Namath has taken issue with the play of Mark Sanchez and the Jets offense. On his twitter account, Namath wrote that the Jets offense was too conservative, and the final play of the game, in which Sanchez completed a pass to Dustin Keller short of the first down marker "disgusting."

"You gotta score some points," Namath said."Nine points is good enough if the other team scores eight."

Asked if he expected Sanchez to be more advanced than he showed, Namath said: "I don't think our passing game was trying to be more advanced [Monday] night. I think we were trying to keep from losing the game."

Namath then took issue with receiver Braylon Edwards:

"Can't catch the ball, for one thing," Namath said. "Or rarely does. He has as many drops as he does catches."

Sanchez responded, basically telling Namath to mind his own business.

"Joe likes to sling it because that's kind of the offense they had back then," Sanchez said. "But we have a great running game, and we would never want to abandon that."

Namath later tweeted that, while the conservative play-calling falls on the coaches, "the poor execution doesn't."

Sanchez should take note from Namath. The Jets offense was disgusting to watch, and his play was putrid. Sanchez played scared, and never even dared to throw the football down the field against a Ravens secondary without super star safety Ed Reed.

I say good for Namath. Unlike former Jet Greg Buttle, who on the Jets post game show on 1050 ESPN Radio, who said that the Keller's knucklehead catch was a "good play," Namath told the truth about this vanilla football team.
