The quarterback controversy in New York may now be over with confirmation that Mark Sanchez will be the starting quarterback for the year with the New York Jets.
Kellen Clemens was formerly the front-runner for the quarterback position, but even with four years in the league, his experience is limited. The Jets are attempting to mold the 22-year old rookie Sanchez into a long-term fixture for the team.
New York Jets betting odds in the AFC East promise an extraordinary payout possibility of $800 for every $100 bet at Sports Interaction.
It's going to be tough in the tightest division in the league that includes none other than the New England Patriots. If they can beat the Patriots, they could probably beat anyone. It's a far fetched concept this early in the season but Jets fans should be made aware that current odds have New York paying $3300 for every $100 bet to win the 2010 Super Bowl.
One of the best bets might be on the 2009 regular season wins odds. They are a big -182 favorite to win OVER 7 regular season games in 2009 and a +130 dog to win less.
Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reported the news regarding Sanchez starting as quarterback Wednesday morning.
"Coach Rex Ryan has informed the QBs this morning that Sanchez will be the starter, FOXSports.com has learned.
"Despite a rough start against the Ravens in his last preseason game, Sanchez never lost his cool and battled back. The team has been impressed with his command of the huddle and the offense. Sources say the team has been impressed with how much he has not looked like a rookie."
