Hit pothole hard, instantly lost throttle response

Hi guys, the other day Im driving to work hit a pothole or something very hard and all the sudden I lost throttle response. Pulled over, restarted car and since then I have intermittent throttle control. When I hit the gas it may go or it may do nothing for 5-6 seconds then go for a bit then nothing. Needless to say Im not driving it as its too dangerous.

I pulled codes and got p0120 and p0220. I then ordered a new TPS sensor and installed/cleared codes. Still have the same issue. Ive also tried the throttle reset procedure to no avail.

I dont think its the maf because it fires right up and idles as it should, not rough at all. I'm trying to troubleshoot from the thought that something possibly broke when I hit the pothole.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. I may unplug the battery to reset everything but welcome any other opinions on what it may be or what I can test.

Thanks,
Alex
