Jetsus bench Sanchez but not in favor of St. Timothy

NEW YORK—Mark Sanchez blew the second chance Rex Ryan gave him. Now, it's Greg McElroy's turn to be the New York Jets' starting quarterback.

And, Tim Tebow? Well, he was leapfrogged by the third-stringer, fueling speculation that the team has little confidence in him as a quarterback.

Ryan decided to bench Sanchez on Tuesday after the fourth-year quarterback had another miserable performance, throwing four interceptions Monday night. He also mishandled a low snap with the game on the line as the Jets were eliminated from playoff contention with a 14-10 loss at Tennessee.

Ryan said after the game that he wasn't ready to decide who would start against the Chargers, but chose McElroy over Sanchez and Tebow after talking with his staff and others in the organization Tuesday.

if they aren't gonna ever use him? They're on the verge of turning his career into a one-season wonder. Even the Broncos made better use of him last season after Orton got hurt.
