posts like these make me sick, and are a perfect microcosm for bills fans who have been making excuses for over a decade. how do you explain fitz' successful first 6 weeks followed the massive dropoff? uhh how about NFL coordinators figured out what we were doing (3 step drop, quick slants, etc) and then game planned to stop it. the book is out on fitz - jam his receivers and he's essentially useless. wouldn't be shocked if the guy had a >1 INT:TD ratio next season and was out of the league by 2013.
i've never seen a team try to build around a mediocre/average QB unless A. they were dead wrong and everyone knew it (Jets/Sanchez) or B. they had a world-class defense (Brad Johnson/Trent Dilfer). I believe we're in the A group.
