EVA LONGORIA
Partied with Sanchez.
Mark Sanchez is one high-flying Jet.
Fresh off a season-opening smackdown of the Buffalo Bills, Gang Green’s hunky signal caller savored the spoils of victory in his first 24 hours as a 1-0 quarterback by wining and dining beauties all over Manhattan.
Last night, Sanchez was accompanied by a pair of the Jets’ Flight Crew cheerleaders as he visited the Breitling store on the East Side to promote luxury watches.
The previous night, Sanchez celebrated New York’s 48-28 win over Buffalo with a feast befitting royalty — or at least the king of New York football — at Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House with his new flame, “Desperate Housewives” stunner Eva Longoria.
Sunday’s victory was sweet in light of the team’s disappointing 2011 campaign and bad preseason.
“It almost seems like people are looking for us to feel vindicated or, ‘Oh, he’s proven something now,’ because the preseason didn’t go the way we wanted to, but the reality of it is it’s one game,” Sanchez told The Post last night.
The star QB said he and all his fellow Jets remain firmly grounded after one great game.
“Did we play well? Did we play well up front and on defense and on special teams, and were we on point in the passing game, and were we efficient in the run game? Absolutely. No doubt,” Sanchez said.
“But that’s nothing to hang your hat on. That’s the most important thing for our guys moving forward, just to realize that. As soon as your head hits the pillow tonight and, really, last night, that one’s over.”
Sanchez has been under the gun with Gang Green faithful after signing a monster three-year $58.25 million contract extension earlier this year.
Gang Green’s commitment to The Sanchise seemed to be at odds with the off-season acquisition of quarterback Tim Tebow.
But fickle New York fans were solidly behind Sanchez after just 30 minutes of football Sunday. When Tebow took the field for one of just several plays, Jets fans booed.
