The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... Amid the tidal wave of publicity surrounding Tim Tebow's arrival, Woody Johnson left no doubt that Sanchez is still his man. "I'm going to be very clear: Mark Sanchez is our starting quarterback. Period. That's it," Johnson said on Tuesday. "He's our starting QB. He's going to be a good NFL player. Just like he's been. There's no reason to suspect that Mark will be any different this year than he's been the last 10 years he's played the game. He's been a very consistent performer his whole career."

Diehards Line:According to Daily News staffer Manish Mehta, Johnson declined to address whether Sanchez could be benched in favor of Tebow if he struggles. The Jets recently signed Sanchez to a three-year extension that included about $20 million in guarantees for 2012 and 2013. "We wouldn't sign him and put him on a long term contract extension… That's a demonstration of our confidence," Johnson added. Despite Tebow's enormous national appeal, Johnson doesn't believe that his presence puts Sanchez in an unfair or precarious position. "I don't think it puts Mark in a bad situation at all," Johnson said. ... And so we have yet another dreaded vote of confidence for Sanchez. That's always a good sign, right?
