Mike Westhoff on former Jets QB Mark Sanchez: ‘He couldn’t throw the ball in the damn lake’

Everybody loves Mike Westhoff. It’s that very notion that makes the idea of a Westhoff-led sitcom sort of realistic. Well, maybe not everybody loves the man.

Former New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez may have something to say about Westhoff’s likability.

While on with the New York Post’s “Gang’s All Here” podcast, the former Jets defensive coordinator didn’t hold back when asked about his former employer. He believes the organization started to trend downward the moment Sanchez signed his three-year, $40.5 million contract in 2010.

“Because we started this big contract, all of a sudden I’m going to lose guys and now I’m really upset,” Westhoff said.
