A forgettable day for Mark Sanchez, who was clearly outplayed by rookie Geno Smith. Sanchez completed just 23% of his passes and threw an interception, while Smith completed 66% for 158 yards. In another surprise, veteran running back Michael Turner had a slow day, while being outplayed by Chris Ivory, and no other back got a carry.
