Jets fans, guess who's back? Mark Sanchez Returns

Well Jets fans, it didn't take long for Mark Sanchez to return as the Jets starting quarterback.

According to multiple sources, the Jets will go back to Sanchez for the clubs' season finale in Buffalo on Sunday, after Rex Ryan discovered that Greg McElroy is suffering from symptoms of a concussion. The fact that McElroy has a concussion should not be surprising since the man was sacked 11 times last week against the Chargers.

Sources also say that Rex Ryan was surprised that McElroy was suffering from a concussion: 

" Ryan was unaware McElroy was dealing with any head issues until Thursday morning. The coach was clearly perturbed by McElroy's lack of honesty, saying the quarterback wouldn't play regardless of how tests came back.
"I was stunned by it," Ryan said, via the New York Daily News. "I admire his courage and everything else, but you have to truthful.'" (NFL.com).

This means that the Jets get to see "Buttfumble" one more time this season. Sanchez will take on a Bills team that he actually torched on opening day for three touchdowns. This time expect Sanchez to throw three touchdowns for Buffalo; as in interceptions that go back the other way.

It is curious to note that Ryan quickly went back to Sanchez, a failed quarterback, without any hesitation. Tim Tebow was completely ignored by Ryan once again, as the rift between the coach and the popular signal caller continues.

Tebow was reportedly not happy he was bypassed again. The Jets should have played Tebow instead of Sanchez. Heck, they should have played Tebow last week instead of McElroy. Clearly the Jets have something against Tebow -- they don't believe in him at all; instead they rather go with an even more unreliable quarterback in Sanchez. That says a lot about the current situation for Gang Green.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

 Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now.  The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia.   Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action.  On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI.  Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper.  New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.  

Is Aaron Glenn in Danger of Getting Fired?

 According to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio there is a "chance"   that Jets head coach Aaron Glenn could be fired at seasons end.  While Florio doesn't site any sources, the rumor has caught fire the last two days. The question is would it make sense? Let's examine this for a second?  Why it Makes Sense:  Glenn has not been great in his first year as Head Coach of this team. The talent has taken a major step backwards, granted two of those talented players were traded away in Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis and Quinnen Williams to Dallas.  The decision he and GM Darren Mougey made to give Justin Fields a two year deal proved to be a horrible mistake, and Glenn stuck with Fields for far too long before pulling the plug following the Jets loss to the Patriots on a Thursday night in mid November.  Glenn gave now former Defensive Coordinator Steve Wilks too much power to run the defense, and the players couldn't stand Wilks. Reports indicated this week af...
