Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

I don't understand why people are so hell bent on getting a QB that's going to throw for 400 yds every game. Honestly, with the defense we had last year, we just needed an offense that can keep us one step ahead and allow us to control the clock when we have the lead. If you look at the elite defenses of last year (Titans, Ravens), their QBs were not setting passing records or anything like that. The easiest thing to do for our team is to get the o-line to protect Campbell and use the offense as a compliment to the defense.

If the team (or should I say, Snyder) wants to have an offense that racks up the yards and is an offense juggernaut, then the defense must be sacrificed. If you look at teams like Indy, Arizona, and New Orleans, who had passing offenses with huge numbers, well those teams usually don't have good defense. Not everyone can be like the New England Patriots (potent offense, with a top notch defense of old guys that won't get hurt) and I don't understand why Snyder (or anyone here) is hell bent on getting a Jay Cutler or another QB that's going to rack up the yards (at the expense of other areas which have typically have been the strength of our team....defense and running game).
