1. Overall, Derek Anderson has not been a good Quarterback. This is known. However, when he is feeling confident, he’s as good as anyone in the league. I think he’s felt confident in less than 5 games since 2007. The team was in shambles in ’08. So many bad moves and injuries. Also Edwards caught 40% of his targets which can’t be all on the QBs -there were 4 of them (not including Josh Cribbs)
2. Although playing with Mark Sanchez would seem to suggest that he was playing with a Quarterback, they actually had a really good connection. He favored Braylon. In 2012 when Braylon caught a handful of passes with the Seahawks through 10 games, he got picked up by the Jets and averaged 40 yards per game on a team he hadn’t been with in almost 2 years. 40 yards isn’t a lot, but in comparison to what he was getting and being on a new team, it shows the comfort level he had with Sanchez.
