Tebow inspires Sanchez to bulk up

The addition of Tim Tebow to the Jets has inspired mark Sanchez to work harder...on getting more muscle. In a Q&A in White Plains New York he said this about the time he's had so far with Tebow:

"From a competitor standpoint, he’s great," Sanchez said. "He’s what you want in an offseason program -- working hard, competing with the guy in the weight room. This is a big, strong guy, so it’s good for me. That’s been one of my goals this offseason -- putting on a little more muscle mass. I’ve taken a beating during the season. It’s been a good transition and Tim’s been great."

Sanchez, still proclaimed as the starter by coach Rex Ryan, he also praised the personality of Tebow.

"He’s been as advertised, as good of a guy, if not better, than anybody said," Sanchez said. "So, he’s been a great addition so far. I’m thrilled to work with him."

He also a few things to say about new offensive coordinator Tony Sparano.

"Coach Sparano is tough," he said. "He sounds like Joe Pesci sometimes when he’s installing plays. He’ll say, ‘You got it? You got it? I’m not speaking for my health. You got it?’ It’s ‘Yes, sir’ [from] the entire room."

If anything I'd like to see Sanchez get inspired to play to better and work harder to keep his starting job. Getting bigger is nice, but it won't top becoming smarter in the system and keeping his job.
