A quarterback controversy between Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow could be brewing with New York Jets owner Woody Johnson reportedly pushing for a change under center.


Mark Sanchez's days as the New York Jets starting quarterback appear to be numbered. According to ESPN New York's Rich Cimini, two sources close to Johnson indicate that a push for the coaching staff to play Tebow will be made at the top of New York's hierarchy. Johnson was believed to be the driving force behind the Jets' pursuit of Tebow and is reportedly the man spearheading his promotion to starter.

Sanchez has done very little to help his own cause. Through four games, the 25-year-old has completed just 49.2 percent of of his pass attempts with five touchdowns, two interceptions and two lost fumbles.

To make matters worse, the Jets lost All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis for the remainder of the season with an ACL tear, and top wide receiver Santonio Holmes will also miss the 2012 campaign with a Lisfranc injury in his left foot.

On the heels of a 34-0 shellacking by the San Francisco 49ers, a game in which Sanchez produced a paltry 39.9 passer rating, head coach Rex Ryan and his staff are scratching their heads and searching for answers

WOW, who would have expected that would happen

I don't know of too many people who thought the inevitable pressure to start Tebow would come from the owner himself

The circus is coming to town!

What an absolute joke they are. Right on time too. 4 games played, time to explode.

The Jets owner needs to focus on hiring a GM that isn't completely stupid.

[laurent]

Tebow is terrible, this should be fun to watch when it happens. What a cluster****.

The riot would start after a Tebow blowout LOSS! They would implode. So would Greenie!!!

Go ahead Jets. I guarantee things will be worse. Denver had RBs to help (McGahee and Moreno) take the pressure off Tebow. Greene and Powell suck and he'll struggle. Take away his running and force Timmy to throw to Jesus every play and I guarantee he'll suck.

Sanchez is a bum. We all know it and, worst of all, the players on the Jets know it. They wont play for the guy.

Might as well see if they will play for Tebow.
