Mark Sanchez, Jets Go From Kings of New York to World of Trouble After Home Loss

Filed under: , ,

Mark SanchezEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- One week ago, Mark Sanchez and the New York Jets were the Kings of New York, thinking Super Bowl or bust.

In a six-day span, "bust" took over the conversation following back-to-back losses to AFC East rivals New England and Miami. And Sanchez became the target of boo birds.

How quickly a team's fortune can turn.

Getting pummeled by a Patriots team that has regained its dominant form, on the road no less, can be forgiven. Every team experiences that one game where everything that could go wrong does and the opponent gets on a roll.

But to come back home to the New Meadowlands talking the talk, only to throw up another stinker, cannot be so easily overlooked. That's exactly what happened Sunday afternoon in the rain to the Jets.

Something was amiss on the first drive after the opening kickoff as New York went three-and-out, with Sanchez handing Dolphins cornerback Sean Smith an early Christmas gift that Smith rejected -- a Sanchez pass hit him right in the hands for a seemingly sure interception that ended up incomplete.
