New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan benched starting quarterback Mark Sanchez for backup Greg McElroy in the third quarter of Sunday's NFL game against the Arizona Cardinals. Ryan was left with no choice after Sanchez threw his third interception with only 95 yards passing and couldn't get the Jets onto the scoreboard.
Upon entering the game, McElroy led the Jets right down the field for a 69 yard touchdown drive and ran the clock down at the end of the game to help the Jets hold on for a 7-6 victory.
Tim Tebow was inactive for Sunday's game due to a rib injury.
Naturally, the question of who will be the starting quarterback for the Jets next week came up during the postgame press conference. Ryan said he'll let the media know when he's ready to make the decision.
