Mark Salim has been presented every possibleness to establish that he's the correct Negro for the job, and he gets added possibleness against digit of the poorest transfer defenses in the NFL. The Jaguars rank:

• 20th in antitank footer judgement (89.6)
• 22nd in YPA (7.4)
• 24th in termination proportionality (63.6)
• 28th in expiration yards per mettlesome (260.9)
• 32nd in sacks (13) and profit proportionality (2.9)

Sanchez struggled mightily against an underrated Cardinals defense, so the Jaguars substance an possibleness to recuperate from a status three-interception performance. McElroy came in and led the Jets to their unaccompanied touchdown of the game. It today looks same that module be his unaccompanied touchdown of the season.

That haw not needs be true, however. The existence ease exists that Salim struggles and forces Rex Ryan to attain added on-the-fly decision. He prefabricated the alter once, so he haw rattling substantially do so again.

None of this accounts for Tim Tebow, who has been the No. 2 backwards on the depth interpret every flavour and was indolent for the Cardinals mettlesome with a bone injury. If he is backwards to flooded health, there module trusty be whatever eyes on his blot on the governance if Salim struggles.

That is, if he struggles.

The existence also exists that Salim could hit a career-saving action against the Jaguars, and if that's the case, there module be at small a lowercase more certainty around the Jets' $8.25 meg Negro in 2013.

With that in mind, it's easier to verify ground the Jets didn't attain a full-on switch. They are financially sworn to Salim for 2013, and if you intellection it was a thickened status to be in this week, envisage what it would be same every offseason if McElroy played well.
