Eagles Reportedly Interested In Mark Sanchez

MarkSanchez1Following quarterback Mark Sanchez’s release from the Jets, the Philadelphia Eagles are believed to be one of his most likely landing spots, according to several reports.

The Eagles have a need for a veteran backup, and Sanchez certainly has plenty of experience. Sanchez isn’t the most attractive name that comes to mind, but he could benefit from a change of scenery. Plugging him into a quarterback-friendly system with better weapons than he ever had in New York could really help him get his career back on track.

For all of the knocks on Sanchez, he has been put into some bad situations throughout his career. And this is a guy who helped his team win in the playoffs early in his career, and got the Jets to a couple of AFC Title games.

Signing Terrell Pryor after he is released, would have been a better Choice.

Drafting Logan Thomas, and getting what you can for Barkley in a trade like a 6th round pick….

I think DeSeans ego argument is overblown, and irrelevant, beings though he produced well, and the team wasn’t effected by it……

It seems Howie’s ego is more of a factor to me….He is in denial about what DeSean brings to this team, along with what real talent looks like when they are voted into the pro bowl – not the Lane Johnson’s, Benny Logan’s and Zach Ertz of the world – nor whomever they draft at his position….

Don’t forget guys, that this is the same organization who told us Patrick (garbage ass) Chung was the perfect fit and an upgrade now that he’s reunited with Chip.

Here’s a few qoutes of shit the Eagles shoveled last offseason once Chung was signed.

March 14, 2013 – Daily News

The Eagles held a press conference Thursday afternoon to introduce two of their recent free-agent acquisitions, safety Patrick Chung and cornerback Bradley Fletcher. Here’s a transcript of the conference:

BRADLEY FLETCHER: It’s good to be here, to be an Eagle, and ready to get going here shortly. It’s going to be a lot of fun, and we’ll be working hard.

PATRICK CHUNG: My name’s Patrick Chung, and I’m bleeding green, baby. Happy to be here, man. You know, happy to have my new teammates, new families, new brothers. Let’s get this going.

Q. Why was this the right fit for the both of you?

BRADLEY FLETCHER: To play for an organization such as the Eagles, I know Patrick feels the same way, kind of dreaming to play for another team, to have this opportunity to come here and play for this team, to play for this division and work hard, couldn’t ask for anything more.

PATRICK CHUNG: Yep, I feel the same way. It feels good to come back to my college coach, too. I always wanted to be a duck, I guess. I’m happy to be here, great organization, great city, and I’ve only been here for a day, so it’s awesome.

Q. Patrick, were you aware of the Eagles’ struggles at safety last year?

PATRICK CHUNG: No, we have to worry about our thing. When I was in New England, we worried about our locker room and our team. We weren’t too worried about what was going on around the league unless we were playing them.

HERE’S THE KICKER!!!

Q. Patrick, since Brian Dawkins left, the team has lacked a safety who intimidates people and who can come across the middle. Can you play that way?

PATRICK CHUNG: I’m going to turn the switch on like yes, I can. But I’m going to be humble about it. I’m going to be very humble. We all can. We have a talented team of safeties and everybody’s talented about how much you execute and how much you put into it. So we’ll be fine. Everybody will be fine.

A TALENTED TEAM OF SAFETIES???

See, the pile of “green shit” they shoveled on the loyal fans of Philadelphia last season?

Now, they’ll claim a pathetic Mark Sanchez is an upgrade to Vick, when Sanchez is one hit away getting paralyzed.

They’ll also tell us the offense will be an addition with subtraction when it comes to DJax geting ousted for shit.

Didn’t we hear that before when T.O. was demonized and ran out of town?

Talking about a damn 3 rd rounder for an all pro talent…

WE USED A 2ND ROUNDER IN THE MCNABB TRADE FOR NATE “SHIT” ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!

We don’t give a damn about a pick for a player this team knows they can’t replace.

Anyway……

I also have qoutes with some of you guys claiming Chung would be an upgrade at Safety and you are the same guys who still trust this cheap ass organization.

I can’t wait to see this team with no Djax.

I’m going to laugh my ass off as these bubble screen throwing Mother’s gets blasted on their way to a serious horrible season.

Headlines in Novemeber..’FOLES FOLDS” … a front page pic with him pulling turf out of his facemask after getting sacked in a losing effort…again!!!!

Why can’t Eagles ever get a winning Owner and coaches like other teams that come from no where only to hoist the Lombardi?

We’re stuck with these shekel shitters !!!

And damn I cannot wait for the explanation of why they went out and brought that other USC stiff in here to compete with the other stiff from USC for the right to back up Foles.

Big, if they would of addressed the defense in Free agency, the way they should have, instead of signing a minor upgrade to Wang Chung, & a bunch of ST players, I wouldn’t have a problem with that strategy. Does a secondary of Williams, Fletcher, Allen, & Jenkins, make them better than last years, last place pass DF? NO! Wolff is a punk @$$, who wouldn’t come back to play, after being cleared after week 13. Boykin is good, but he is a slot CB only. We still don’t have a NT. We still don’t have a good, consistent pass rusher. AND, we still have unfits all over the defense (Cole, Graham, Curry, Logan). Then they’ll have the balls to justify their decision making, & try to tell us we are a contender. It’s nauseating! Telling you now, if they let DJax go for nothing, & sign Sanchez, I’m turning in my fancard, & will follow another team. I’m sick of this $#!T now! It’s bad enough the Phillies season is over, before it even begins, but we have to have this BS, to ruin our Birds off-season. SMMFH….

Whow. Did someone mention Terell Pryor??????????????

Jeezus, can you guys put the “Kelly needs a running QB” to bed already!

Pryor is completely useless. Sanches is only mostly useless. At least he’s played in 6 playoff games (4-2) with 9tds and 3 ints in those games.

Sanchez, in on a one or 2 year deal for a couple million. to battle for the 2nd or 3rd start…there’s no harm in that. The guy is capable of coming in and handing off and tossing screens to the RBs and going 1-1.

I don’t really have a problem with the signing. He’s got more wins, yards, tds over his last 4 seasons thatn the guy he’s replacing, so its a bit of an upgrade.

I told you Guys that Coach Kelly had his eyes set on bringing in
Sanchez, never a doubt in my mind..I think it’s a good pick-up as a cheap alternative Back-Up to Foles who has sone NFL Game Experierence
If both Barkley & Sanchez show well this Summer
Then they can Trade 1 of them for a mid/late round
Pick.. The reality is that Foles is the Starter & Future QB
If the Eagles, and Barkley is not ready and may never be a Stsrter in the NFL, so why not acquire a Sanchez to learn the system and compete for the back-up tap it with Barkley and see what happens.. He may end up being a real good fit in the Eagles Offense…a Low Risk move for some security, and look around the NFL at back-up QB, whose out there? Jimmy Claussen,
Brady Quinn,Colt McCoy, Josh Freeman..
If rather have Sanchez than any of these QB’s..

I’d rather have Pryor, If Chip is as good as everyone, including himself thinks he is, there is talent there to be worked with. I don’t believe Pryor has been coached or nurtured to hone in on his passing skills. He didn’t spend enough time at OSU, and then he went to the black hole where careers go for their final resting place. Pryor would also give the Eagles a different skill set at the QB position. I think Pryor is a backup at this point, but could be looked at as a reclamation project.

So that 10-6 record was the result of all the brilliant moves they made last off season, Casey and those guys really stepped up and put this team on their backs. The only moves that mattered last year was the Coaching staff and some luck with the way the schedule fell. And yes Connor Barwin played well other than that big whoop.

Free agents don’t win you championships Big. Ever notice how the big time franchises like Pittsburgh, New England, Green Bay, etc. are always very quiet in free agency? Yet bottom dwellers like Oakland, Tampa Bay, and Washington always seem to be dishing out the monster contracts to free agents.

I get that you would have liked to see a Jarius Byrd brought in but signing a veteran QB who has won his fair share of playoff games is nothing to get worked up over. I’d say Sanchez would be considered a top 5 backup. Maybe THE top backup in the league.

I’d take Sanchez over Chase Daniel, Matt Moore, Fitzpatrick, Mallett, Hill, Colt McCoy, Jason Campbbell, Tryon Taylor, Stanton, Quinn, Carr, Davis I, Davis II. Anderson, Whitehurst, McCown and a load of other backup QBs.

Backup QBs around the league are terrible (for the most part)

I understand this is more about the pathetic state of the QB situation in the NFL, but like it or not, Sanchez would be a top 10 backup in the league.

Starter? Never.

Backup? He’d be one of the better ones in the league.

there is 0 correlation between sanchez being better than vick and the fact that he is no longer a jet.

IN 4 SEASONS SANCHEZ HAS 10 4TH QUARTER COMEBACKS AND 12 GAME WINNING DRIVES

IN 11 SEASONS VICK HAS 13 4TH QUARTER COMEBACKS AND 14 GAME WINNING DRIVES.

this demonstrate sanchez is more clutch with inferior athletes all the while

sanchez best season in 4 years:
3474 passing yards, 26tds

vicks best season in 11 years:
3308 passing yards, 21 tds

As others have pointed out, I think its funny that the some of the same people who supported Vick would hate this Mark Sanchez move if it eventually happens. How is Vick this good player in their eyes but Sanchez is basically a bum?? LOL either they are stupid hypocrites or there is something else that is bothering them that they don’t want to admit

Sanchez and Vick both suck. They are not good enough to be a starter on a good team and any team that tries to make them a starter will likely go nowhere that season (unless they have a guy like Foles who comes in and saves the day by playing all time great).

Jets let Sanchez go because of his ridiculous contract. If Sanchez was on the books for about a million, he would still likely be a Jet unless he voiced his opinion behind the scenes to be released himself. And if the Jets think Vick is good why didn’t they give him only a one year bullshit deal. Are other “good” Qbs at Vicks age getting bullshit contract like that? no..The Jets are a circus…they proved that with Tebow and now Vick is their next circus show. They care more about making news than winning ask any Jets fan out there.

I could really care less if Sanchez is our backup. All the options out there suck, just like him, so whats the difference.

Never said Sanchez was better. If you can actually read/comprehend it says I think they both suck. What I don’t understand is how some can think Vick is good and at the same time think Sanchez is a bum? There must be something else that bothers them or maybe they are just stupid and don’t understand that they are being hypocrites.

But if you know anything about the NFL, if a starting NFL QB goes down for a team, their season is pretty much done. What happened last year with the Eagles is the exception. Its not common to have a QB do what Foles did last year. So my point is who really cares if Sanchez or Barkley or whoever is backup…noone out there right now is going to come in and win us a superbowl if Foles goes down.

The biggest thing is what differentiates them…not the similarities they have, when you look at numbers and turnovers, there are similiarties no doubt…But when you look at the player, skill set, arm strength, quickness, what they can and can not do….I think many know that Vick can do more than Sanchez…That’s as simple as I can make it for you.

Yea when I look at the players I see two QBs who suck. Vick can do more on a football field based on what? Seeing him run around fast in a practice when noone is trying to touch him? What has the guy really accomplished with those “skills” that Sanchez hasn’t? give me a break…sure Vick can run faster/throw harder than Sanchez. Sanchez is bigger, has a better track record of being able to finish a season healthy, more playoff experience etc. They both have some things on the other.

But at the end of they day they both suck. And anyone that thinks one is good while the other is bad is just showing how stupid they are.

I have nothing else to say about these two bad QBs. Like I said before, it doesn’t matter who the backup is since they all suck, if our starter goes down then the season is pretty much over just like it is for every team in the league.

RT, surprisingly I would have to agree with you. I would take Vick over Sanchez, however it was not up to the team. The position that was open on the Eagles is the backup position, while there is a possibility that Vick could win a starting position in NY. It was Vick’s decsion that he wanted to have a chance to be a starter, not the Eagles decsion not to bring him back.

Sanchez had worn out his welcome in NY. He would never meet the expectations there, and just like in a lot of situations, will need to get a fresh start somewhere else. We are talking about a backup QB position with the Eagles. You cannot just say that it doesn’t matter, because it does. QB’s in the NFL are injured at a high rate, and you need a quality backup to be able to keep the team winning for a few games while the starter heals. Is Sanchez that guy? Who knows, but he is a veteran and if they do decide to go with him, I would believe that Kelly would scheme to use his talents as best he can.

I would believe that MV7 will do well in NY. He is familiar with MM and he does well whenever he is forced to compete. If he can stay healthy and limit turnovers (where have we heard that before) I would think he would do well. I wish him well, except anytime his games affect the Birds.

Best Player on the Board.. Since Browns have 2 First Rounds..
they will go for a sure thing at a Position Player at #4 and address the QB posistion with thier 2nd Round Pick or maybe in the 2nd Round

Raiders just acquired Shaucb and his $10 Million Contract, I don’t see them getting a QB from this Draft until later in the Draft if at all..

Jaguars signed Henne to a 2 Year Deal.. HC Bradley will salivate with
Clowner on the Board and so on and so on..

This 2014 QB Class is just not that good and I think Teams have learned not to over-reach for QB’s as has been done in recent Draft’s when having early Picks…
Grabbing a QB in the 2nd Round and ending up with a Derek Carr, Jimmy Garapoolo, McCammon is probably a smart way to go for these Clubs and not much difference that the Top #3 in my opinon as far as upside…
There are only a handful of real Playmakers/Day 1 Starters in this Draft and they happen to be Mack, Clowney, Barr, OT Robinson, OT Matthews, WR Watkins and maybe CB Gilbert… and that’s about it ..
If I am a struggling Team with a Top 5 Pick with a bunch of other pressing needs, then I am Selecting one of these “Difference Makers” before Selecting an average QB who is a 2-3 Year Project with minimal upside to begin with..
Again, this is my Opinion only after watching these QB’s over the last 3-4 months in the lead-up to the Draft.. They just don’t impress me as a group similar to the 2011 Draft Class which had the Following

#1 – Cam Newton – Panthers
#8 – Jake Locker – Titans
#10 – Blaine Gabbert – Jaguars
#12 – Christian Ponder – Vikings

2nd Round
#35 – Andrew Dalton – Bengals
#36 – Colin Kapernick – 49ers

Don’t you believe that Titans,Jaguars and Vikings wished they had a do-over in that Draft… in a Weak Class, You can get a similar talented QB in the 2nd Round then over-reaching in the Top Half of the 1st Round

Remember the Eagles need a Solid rotational player behind Logan and they love those versatile Players who can play multiple positoins
My first Selection of Kareem Martin from UNC will be the Pass-Rusher playing DE and standing up as pass-rushing OLB (splitting time with Trent Cole)… Martin is a very athletic, long and lean play and built very similar to a young Julius Peppers and to JPP & Aldon Smith..

I think it’s a safe bet that Nick Young has some questionable affiliations. I mean, he goes out of his way to let anyone with eyesight know.

I never hear, or saw anyone accuse Jackson of being directly involved in his house being robbed. What I hear and saw was many people speculating about the unusual items that were taken from his house.

When you throw-up gang sings on the field and in nearly every picture on you instagram site, and you have guns and large amounts of cash stolen from you house, you can expect people to make assumptions. It has nothing to do with prejudice, it’s common sense.

People assume exactly what DeSean Jackson wants them to assume when he uses gang signs. Do you think he does that so people think he is a Joe Cocker impersonator?

Talking like that is part of a subcultural language that people become accustomed too as it becomes a part of their everyday language. As one becomes more mature , educated, and conscious, it should decrease. This is what Riley Cooper experienced.

The point was to basically take away part of the argument against DeJax. Arguing that you shouldn’t keep a player because they want a new contract will pretty much limit the amount of players that will be available for your squad.

Next to ask why people keep bringing up the fact that he got robbed as something negative. I don’t think being stupid or making a horrible financial decision should be a point against you, because then you wouldn’t haven many NFL players to choose from. Now the only thing that I can see is if people are trying to say that he was doing something illegal with the money. Is that the case?

Mathis has never been shy about looking to maximize his earnings..
He even stated so when he first signed with the Eagles as a Free-Agent back in 2010 is that he choose the Eagles since they had OL Howard Mudd and wanted to learn as many techniques as possible to improve his game and to raise his level of play so he could earn more $$$$
I would not say this is strictly selfish, but Mathis has always had an eye of following “opportunity” so it’s not unlike him or his personality to ask for more …

All these guys are me first guys this all about the team thing is so overrated, how can anyone fault these guys for trying to get every last dollar they can. They give up their bodies for organizations that will not live up to the terms of the contracts they signed them too the minute they deem them too expensive or not fitting the teams plans. And some of us bitch and complain like it’s costing us money. LOL

He is like most NFL Players for te reasons you stated.. Short-Careers,Injuries that could be life-long, non-guaranteed Deals, so get it while you can.. It’s the American Way.. I don’t blame any of these guys looking to maximize their earning, though I do believe that Players can go about it in the right, professional manner and keep their finances out of the public and between them, the Team & their Agents but in todays world, things get out in public,media or social media and then things take a life of their on.. and especially for a Player who is highly visible in the media like a D-Jax is as opposed to a interior OL who most outside of Philly never heard of…
The Message, I believe, that the Eagles are sending to their entire Roster is you are under Contract, and unhappy about it, then we as a Orgainzation will look to Trade you if we cannot work things out.
Mathis just finished his 2nd Year of a $25 Million Extension he signed in 2012.. which is a pretty good Deal for a Guard in the NFL…If he now wants to up his Deal, then the Eagles will Trade him, unfortunatlely for Mathis, Not many Teams are willing to take on his Current Deal, let alone pay more .. So Mathis has very little leverage here and if he draws a line in the Sand, the Eagles will move forwaed without him for that’s what this Club has always done under Owner Lurie and I don’t expect it to change anytime soon regardless if Chip Kelly is the Coach, they are a Playoff Team or that GM Roseman is the GM..
There are certain Business & Life Priniciples that Lurie lives by with and Loyalty and Living up to your Word,Duties & Contracts are some of them, and when you break away from this, your Gone…

I wonder if people on here still want to compare Mathis and his long hair to Djax now that more facts are coming out…just shows how stupid people look on here sometimes.

Until we have evidence that Mathis is friends with people charged with murder, or his name surfaces in recent gang related murders that took place outside property he owns, or he is taking pictures with dudes who are just getting out of jail for allegedly killing another human being, on top of all the gang signs etc…then I think people should stop trying to make a comparison.

It really is disappointing tho. Djax had the ability to be electric on the field.. He could have gone down as one of the most favorite eagles ever if he just acted like a smart professional. Djax your are an idiot man, just cost yourself some big money too

I wasn’t for getting rid of the guy unless we got something in return, Im all for trading anyone on this team for right price. Didnt think it would be a release but you cant blame them after the Hernandez thing

If you read what we talked about with Mathis it was about him asking for more money and being selfish. Keep believing he was released because of who he knew. He was released for one reason, they didn’t want to PAY him.

A team that is crazy about their cap now has to spend 6million on Djax when he isn’t even here. if it was all about the money they wouldn’t do that. Noway in hell would they do that when they wont even pay a couple million extra for a stud safety who will actually play here. The Eagles just don’t just threw away 6million on their cap for nothing.

Its clearly about who he affiliates himself with and him being involved in murder investigations, throwing up gang signs for the public to see etc…
Its called common sense, use it man.

Zilents is correct. Im pretty sure gangs dont like it when NON-gang members use their signs in front of millions of people. I think if you are using the signs your are on “good terms” with the gangs which means you didn’t exactly get on good terms with them for doing nothing. Maybe he financed something, supposedly a murder took place outside one of the buildings he owns in LA. There is more there than him just “knowing” the guy. As Zilents said, “he got dirty” in some type of ways.

The EAgles are a billion dollar business. They have all the resources in the world to find out anything they want about anyone. I bet this is not even close to everything they know

Released because he had a murderer on his payroll at his record label

Released because there was a murder at a building he owned and he wouldn’t cooperate with authorities.

Released because he is friends with and hangs out with criminal gang members

Released because he didn’t get along with coaches and teammates

Released because he didn’t show up to meetings

Released because everyone knows his house being robbed was either staged or committed by friends

Released for probably 10 other reasons we have yet to ear about.

***One Clear message to Players who want to do their own thing and relocate to their Hometowns for the Off-Season, then don’t play for the Eagles if you are not going to commit full-time or be an active part of the community and workout under “Eagle Eyes” at NovaCare and especially when there is a new Coach in Town, then the Eagles is probably not the Team you want to Draft you or Sign a Free-Agent Deal with…

Not to change gears, but as I have stated so far a few times this off-season,
Does anyone else notice how quiet LeSean McCoy has been all Off-Season,
not only about nimself, but with the addition of Sproles, the D-Jax Story, etc,etc.. Usually McCoy likes to chime in on anything ..
I believe McCoy got a good long sit down talking to, by the Coach/Roseman and possibly even Lurie himself about the expectataions moving forward of being an Eagle and what that Uniform means to the Community at Large…
I believe LeSean McCoy has gotten the message loud and clear..
Coach AR was such a Players Coach for Year’s that the Attitude and Behavior was a little too lax at NovaCare for Kelly’s liking and a little to “do your own thing” mentality ..
Now Coach Kelly can’t come in on Year #1 and make a bunch of changes right away or you have no Team to compete with, and I am sure that he gave every player an opportunity to show him that they are 100% Committed, True Eagles, etc,etc but there was very little doubt that Kelly would have to move on from a few of the AR holdovers who were either not 100% fully committed, or just not part of the Future plans would be gone..
At least this was done here in late March to clean the slate so to speak and before the Full Workouts begin come May post Draft…
It’s time for the Organization to move on for this D-Jax Story whether it be d Rumor’s, the Truth or somewhere in between would have dominated the news cycles all Summer long and could potenitally split the locker room…

Cooper wouldn’t be getting a new contract if he was involved with murder investigations, hanging out with accused killers the day they get out of jail, or if police were contacting Lurie telling him Cooper is closely related to serious gangs activity, etc…Its actually pretty simple when you think about.

And when it comes to slurs, the Eagles gave Djax a ton of money after calling people “gay ass faggots” in front of millions of people too.

They are seperate incidents…I don’t think the Eagles were as harsh as they should of been with Cooper IMO…basically sent the man on a 3 week vacation…WTF???
What I see is the Eagles possibly over reacting to discipline a DJAX…
and Eagles sweeping shit under the rug, in regards to Cooper…there should of been more of an over reaction in that case too…

No doubt one is more serious than the other….but at the end of the day, the organization is supposed to have values, integrity….Coopers presence still hurts the organization in that regard to this day…Except of course to those that have turned the blind eye to it and “swept it under the rug” so to speak. Normally when one can related, that is what happened…

Like the FO, was like “we’ve all said that word before or known racist folks, either family or friends”….they could relate more to Cooper situation, so yea, take a vacation…FO, didn’t grow up with killers, gangs so they can’t relate to DJAX situation…that’s what I see…

Not taking up for DJAX at all…Just giving my opinion that Cooper should not be an Eagle…shouldn’t of been an Eagle when he was first exposed.

There is no apples to apples comparison to how D-Jax has acted over most of his adult life and how Cooper acted at a Concert in an inebrieated state

Also it’s partly about money…If DJAX was guaranteed to make 10….you would see no release…they released him mainly because they could without taking too much of a hit. The Eagles got the better deal of that contract, without a doubt.

But its stupid to me that players that make millions of dollars put themselves in these type of situations…its asinine! With that said, I’m against the release, but I somewhat understand it. (based on the information on it, that’s out)

I don’t blame the Eagles at all in this. It makes sense now if you read Vick’s comment welcoming him….that he should embrace a trade etc because he needed to mature.

It sucks….the guy is an unbelievable talent…but IMO and probably the Eagles a ticking time bomb.

But no Team is going to jumpr right in before doing their Dud Diligence and thotoughly checking him out which will take a while
I expect nothing happens with D-Jax until after the Draft and shortly before Camp time around mid-June or so..
It would behoove D-Jax to get some Help in the meantime and gather his thoughts and actions and where to begin rebuilding his life..
We all know hhe’s in a financial pickle, but that’s stuff that can wait and be pushed off as long as he doesn’t owe “real gangsters $$$” which he very well may… but bottom line here, D-Jax needs to fix himself before he can really help any Football Team.. .
In this “Post Aaron Hernandez Paranoid Era” of the NFL, Teams are going to be extremely careful in researching Pplayers who have a checkered past, whether it’s runmor innuendo, the truth or somewhere in between..
