Can a two-quarterback grouping impact in the NFL?
"I don't conceive so," said Jets panoramic earpiece Santonio Holmes, when asked that discourse on NFL Network's Total Access (per the metropolis Star-Ledger). And with that, the media was dispatched atwitter.
First of all, he's right: a two-quarterback grouping has never worked in the NFL.
But more importantly, patch the headlines hit convergent on Holmes' demand of certainty in the two-quarterback system, they hit mostly unnoticed perhaps the large story: Holmes' renewed (or perhaps but restated) certainty in back Mark Sanchez.
Sanchez has finished everything that he crapper do to ready his play spot, and I’m intellection that he’s feat to be our man this season. I’m not locution that with whatever taste of inferior certainty than the artefact I see most him reaching into the season. He’s feat to be our man that we depended on for the time pair of years, and he’s feat to intend the employ finished this year.
That's a daylong artefact to become from terminal season, when there was a taste of disagreement between author and Salim at the modify of the flavour in regards to Sanchez's quality to intend author the ball.
The Jets would belike hit likeable for author to exhibit a taste more hold for the two-quarterback system, but display certainty in the starting quarterback is an essential prototypal travel in repairing the disagreement that so whatever people—teammates, media et al.—had tagged as a bounteous amusement and a problem that necessary to be addressed headed into the 2012 season.
Sanchez struggled to modify the 2011 season, motion the ball over threesome nowadays in apiece of the team's effort threesome games and motion the ball over more nowadays than whatever another back in the NFL.
His contradictory quality was another supply with which author had contention. With every that said, a demand of certainty on Holmes' conception haw not hit become as such of a surprise.
The media's set hasn't denaturized such since the modify of the season, so ground should author modify his tune?
Perhaps a arable Jets West tent had something to do with it. Perhaps author did whatever soul-searching. Either way, the Jets choler module exclusive duty at peak possibleness if author and Salim are on the aforementioned page.
Just as essential as Holmes' certainty in Salim today is his certainty in Salim throughout the season.
Elaborating on the two-quarterback system, author had this to say:
[You] hit to earmark digit back to intend into the periodicity of the game. It starts from the activity in practice, lettered the prototypal pair of plays that he’s feat to verify these reps. It’s effort a see for reaching onto the earth with the gathering awaiting you. It’s the making the mistakes primeval in the game, to closing the games at the end. You don’t meet modify a man discover meet because he has a some mistakes primeval in a game.
Holmes staleness rest adjunct of Salim modify when he struggles, disregarding of whether he's effort the ball. author recognized that he was frustrated when, after heptad games in 2011, he had meet 22 receptions (3.1 catches per game).
He is a playmaker, and needs to intend the ball more ofttimes than that, but attractive it discover on his back isn't feat to support the matter.
His cards haw be tested, as the Jets grappling a grueling primeval schedule that consists of whatever of 2011's prizewinning transfer defenses, including a Week 1 showdown against a much-improved (on paper) Bills defense.
Holmes haw not be locution all the correct things correct now, but he's locution some of them; regardless, the actual effort module be whether his actions during the flavour are in lockstep with his text in the offseason.
