As part of the new ball-security program installed to help out Mark Sanchez, Rex Ryan invited Joe Girardi to the Jets’ practice at Florham Park to show the rookie quarterback how to slide.
The Jets are pretty adept at sliding. They’ve been doing it since Week 4.
OK that was a gratuitous cheap shot. But having Girardi come over to practice was a pretty good idea because Sanchez needs as much help as he can get down the stretch.
Girardi, who deftly guided the Yankees to a World Series championship this season, also took some time out to address the Jets on being champions. Cornerback Darrelle Revis said he took away something from the pep talk.
“Unity,” he said.
Good. The Jets won’t fall apart as they go hand-in-hand to … nowhere this season.
Girardi’s pep talk and his teaching Sanchez to hook slide are a little too late to help the Jets this season. They aren’t going to the playoffs because they don’t have what it takes to run the table, which is what they have to do to have a chance. Hopefully Sanchez will retain the fundamentals of sliding and won’t get decapitated this year and will be a much better quarterback for it next season.
