skin23 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 “I’d say he’s middle of the pack. Definitely not the worst in the league. He’s a capable quarterback,” Hall told The Washington Post in Thursday's edition. “He’s taken them to a couple AFC Championship (Games), so he definitely knows how to win the big games. He doesn’t take as many chances as much as he just gets confused some times,” Hall said. “A lot of times he just comes out and stares a receiver down, tries to throw him the ball. He puts it on those guys to make plays. They haven’t made as many plays this year as they have in previous years.” Even if it's true, when do people learn to just be quiet and play ball? It was only last week he was whining about the fact that he should be cut. I'd argue that getting confused is better than seeing what's coming and still not being able to stop it.

bird_1972 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 This quote will sound even sillier after Plax abuses Hall for 100+ yards receiving and 2 TDs. Hall should concentrate more on figuring out how to cover WRs with less than a 10 yard cusion and worry less about where the QBs he faces each week rank relative to the rest of the league.

KCClybun Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Um...did D-Hall say anything that isn't true? In fact, has he said anything that any other defensive player wouldn't say about Mark Sanchez when asked? Come on, man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, man... Yeah, compared to what NFL.com's headline suggested, this is pretty tame. And I think "middle-of-the-pack" is an appropriate description of Sanchez right now.

skin23 Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Please, you guys know how competitive these pros are and you know that calling a quarterback in particular 'middle of the pack' carries a different weight. He called him average and basically means that his team is the reason they have succeeded in the past. Whether it's true or not is completely irrelevant to the point I was making. Let your play do the talking, as I'm sure Plax and Santonio will show him Sunday. Lastly, what if another player accurately assessed Mr. Hall's skills as 'middle of the pack'? How well do you think he'd take that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clutch03 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Sanchez could say a lot of true things about Hall if he wanted to. Then he should say those things if he is inclined to do so. Like Ray Lewis said, "You still have to buckle up your chin strap and play". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How well do you think he'd take that. Well, considering his comments after the Dallas game, I think he would take it fine if the comments were warrented. All the hate for D Hall is unbelievable. Does he talk too much? yes. Is he having a bad year? yup...he even admitted it. Is he a scrub CB, or even as bad as some are saying? ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME? He had a great year last year...so good in fact one of his jerseys ended up in the HOF after that game. He has won DPOW on a few occasions (including one after last week). So y'all put your blind hatred away, and try and view things objectively (yeah I know a tall order for around here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How well do you think he'd take that. Considered D-Hall said that he should get cut a couple weeks ago, I think D-Hall's fully aware that he's not having his best season. My point is, D-Hall was asked a question. In the answer to that question, D-Hall answered honestly and openly. It's not like he said "Oh, that kid? Pfft, that kid sucks hairy donkey balls". He was asked his opinion, and he gave his assessment of the guy. He said he's a capable quarterback. "OH NOES, MARK SANCHEZ IS GOING TO GET HIS **** TOGETHER SINCE D-HALL CALLED HIM AVERAGE!". Mark Sanchez plays for the New York Jets in one of the harshest media markets in the whole damn country, you think being called a capable quarterback is going to get Sanchez fired up to take it to D-Hall? Considering what he hears from the media and his own fans, I'd think he'd be happy to hear someone doesn't think he's the worst quarterback in the league. "Let your play do the talking?" How about "Let's let the game happen for we go bashing on our own players?". CRAZY THOUGHT, I'm sure. But DeAngelo Hall didn't say a damn thing that every other defender who has had to face him either hasn't said or isn't at least thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corners who give a 12 yard cushion for an easy 3rd and 7 conversion don't get my vote for being a good corner - even if they had a one-time great game with 4 INTs. I didn't say he's the worst, I just know he's not a #1 corner worth the money he gets. And if you don't agree with that, well then your definition of objectivity is inaccurate.

So y'all put your blind hatred away, and try and view things objectively (yeah I know a tall order for around here) Thank you. Our players, unfortunately, receive more hate from the fans (especially on here) than they do in the national media. Everyone on here complains and crucifies national journalists who bash the skins (and rightfully so in many cases because it's clear the writers haven't researched) as a team, but yet it is our fans who berate all the individual players and say that they are garbage. I don't get it. I love this team, and more specifically this year's team. I don't think there is a single selfish or undedicated player on the team. Different guys have different personalities but you accept it. DHall is not a cancer type player. He talks too much but at the end of the day he would deservedly start on almost any team in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBScores Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 All I know is that he has a better win percentage in the playoffs than Peyton Manning. He wins when it counts. I think he's much better than people make him out to be. It's not just all about statistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botched Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I'm glad we didn't draft Sanchez. He'll start for the Jets for another year or two before they finally accept the fact that he's not ever going to win them a championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeefJerky Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Sanchez has a case of happy feet if pressured, so we should see multiple blitz packages from all angles. The secondary will have chances at creating turnovers, hopefully they lose the case of the drops they have had lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
