akm0404 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Brady beat the Ravens last week. The good quarterbacks in the league can beat them. Ryan Fitzpatrick isn't one of the good quarterbacks in the league, nor is he even a top 20 quarterback in the league. Ergo, he will not beat them.
DanInUticaTampa Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Perhaps you could link these many threads touting him as the QB of the future. Thanks in advance. This is the only one I have ever seen: http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/121711-bills-fans-should-take-ryan-fitzpatrick-seriously/ I don't see those popping up daily.... I see more threads popping up screaming to give brohm a start. People see one person make a thread about Fitz being the future and all of a sudden the board is a fitz fan....
Cugalabanza Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Here's my prediction: Bills 23 Ravens 19 (And Fitz will do fairly well) I will bump this thread on Sunday evening confirm my genius and to tell all you whiners to eat it.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Ryan Fitpatrick has started about 14 actual games, hardly enough to believe he has peaked. So you believe 1 game will prove anything? Not likely How many games has Fitz won? add all of those 1 games up and whadda ya get?
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 My prediction straight outta the Madden Hall of fame: You know if the Bills lose to the Ravens Sunday they will be 0-6. Here's my prediction: Bills 23 Ravens 19 (And Fitz will do fairly well) I will bump this thread on Sunday evening confirm my genius and to tell all you whiners to eat it. I predict you will not bump your thread
Bob in STL Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) This week everyone can get a much clearer look at the true Ryan Fitzpatrick, and why he will always be a backup. Jacksonville is terrible, and having a good game against the worst secondary in the league doesn't prove much of anything. A solid Baltimore defense is going to put him on lockdown, and his QB rating will fall. Wow. Your going all out on that prediction. You will also see Fitz play hard for the entire game.

reddogblitz Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 How many games has Fitz won? add all of those 1 games up and whadda ya get? In how many of the games Fitz has started has the defense held the other team to under 36? Add them all up and what do you get?
Dorkington Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 If Fitz performs well in this game, I'll give him the starting job through 2011 while we build up other parts of our team. If he performs like garbage, then it's back to looking at a QB with our high draft pick.

So you're going to base your decision to try to draft a franchise quarterback on how a journeyman back-up does in one game? I mean, yeah, he's going to get crushed, but I think you can safely evaluate Fitzpatrick's long multi-stop career and decide that he simply isn't good enough to win playoff games. Great guy, great teammate, great back-up quarterback.

thewildrabbit Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Thanks for the info Nostradamus. Thought for sure someone would have said ....thanks for the info nostadumbas The Bills are the worst team in he NFL, they have the worst O line in the NFL, not very difficult to predict the QB will fail against the #3 defense in the NFL
mattsox Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I predict the Bills to lose bad against the Ravens. Fitzy will stink. The Bills will Go 0-16, and Clean house and rebuild for 2011.
bobblehead Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Perhaps you could link these many threads touting him as the QB of the future. Thanks in advance. I've been here 8 years, and I sure as hell don't know where these threads are, either.
cvanvol Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've been here 8 years, and I sure as hell don't know where these threads are, either. He is the QB of the future this is true, as our number 2
akm0404 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Um guys, there have been a million threads talking about how Fitzpatrick is the quarterback that the Bills need to succeed, and that we shouldn't pursue elite-level franchise QB play because we're all set with Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Umm, no there haven't. Lots of threads saying he's better than Trent, but your post is flat out wrong. Edited October 19, 2010 by Green Lightning
DanInUticaTampa Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 that is the funny thing about predictions....
Steve O Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 This. Tom Brady's QB rating last week was around 69 and he is better and has much more to work with than Fitzpatrick. I want to know one thing, however, if Fitzpatrick plays well will any of the people who slam him reconsider their opinion of him or will they just spin it to fit in their view of the world? I've never really slammed him, certainly not here, just always figured we knew what we have in Fitz, a decent backup, nothing more. And yes, given his play today as well as all season I am starting to reconsider this opinion.
b stein 22 Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Nothing better then eating your own words.
Dorkington Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 If Fitz performs well in this game, I'll give him the starting job through 2011 while we build up other parts of our team. If he performs like garbage, then it's back to looking at a QB with our high draft pick. He performed well. Lets focus on the rest of the team.
