The Facts:
It certainly sounds like Jets fans should expect Sanchez to be the team’s starting QB this season. New OC Marty Mornhinweg said there will be a competition at QB, but Sanchez will likely enter as the favorite. “Mark will probably have just a little bit of a leg up it would appear,” Mornhinweg said in a conference call Monday.

The new playcaller added: "“I would like to have competition at that position as well as all the other positions. There are a select few on this football team that have kind of earned the right to step in there as No. 1 on the depth chart, but I certainly would like competition at all the other spots, including the quarterback spot. ...” According to Post staffer Brian Costello, Mornhinweg said he will tailor his offense to play to what Sanchez does well if he is the QB. “I’ll play to a player’s strengths,” he said. “As you know, Mark has many strengths. Everybody’s got strengths and weaknesses. Just talking generally about a player, you try to play to a player’s strengths and you try to get the weaknesses a little bit better.” Mornhinweg said Sanchez does not need to be “fixed.” Maybe not. But Sanchez certainly has to play better after regressing over the last two seasons.
