To be fair to the Broncos newly acquired QB Mark Sanchez

Just to be fair to Mark Sanchez:

He has really not been as bad as people's perception of him as of late. Perception is reality and it's not any different in the NFL either.

Consider these 2 points:

1. In 8 games played in 2014 for the Eagles who were one of the worst teams in the NFL last year in talent and dysfunction, Mark Sanchez  completed 64.1 percent of his passes, averaged 7.8 yards per throw, threw 14 touchdown passes against 11 interceptions, and generated a passer rating of 88.4. He also has a 4-2 playoff (on the road mind you) record!

2. In contrast, in seven starts last season playing with the Broncos, the best team in the NFL last season, Brock Osweiler completed 61.8 percent of his throws, averaged 7.2 yards per attempt, had 10 touchdown passes and six interceptions, and racked up a passer rating of 86.4. And Zero playoff experience.

One of those guys went onto sign an $18 million per year deal, and the other still gets butt fumble jokes hurled at him! But he may have the last laugh now playing for a team with the best offensive mind coaches in the NFL and the best defense in the NFL.

Let's go #Broncos
