Do you like the agression showed by Sanchez or do you think he should have slid and not gotten injured or the first down?

I'm torn. I love the way he plays, all out, but it's eventually going to bite him in the ass. Hopefully he knee holds up.

his dive/injury probably won them the game cause he would have had a turnover or two for sure. it won't hurt the team if he's not in there, might be in their best interest to shut him down for awhile.

I think it was safer than a slide would've been. Slides are a concussion waiting to happen if players are already closing in.

This is blown way out of proportion. He could have just as easily gotten hurt sliding wrong. It would be a different story if he tried to pull a play like John Elway did against the Packers in the Super Bowl(obviously that situation was MUCH different).

Part of being a competitor is making good decisions. Get your ass on the ground and live to compete another day.
