Sanchez report: Considering the deficit and the opponent, this was Sanchez's best overall performance of the season. He overcame two big mistakes in the first half (a fumble that resulted in a safety, and an interception) and carried the team on his shoulders, something he hadn't been able to do. Exploiting a porous secondary filled with rookies, Sanchez completed 28 of 41 passes for 328 yards and one TD. Surprisingly, the coaches cut him some slack, letting him throw -- a lot. This should quiet his critics.
