What Fitz has that no other QB since Bledsoe

[Mikie2times]

QB's in the NFL just don't have the luxury of finding an open receiver a lot of the times, and they have such little time to make a decision. Often times they need to throw to a covered player hoping to put it in a spot in which only your guy can get it. That's not easy thing to do without racking up a plethora of INT's. Most QB's either never learn to do this and fail or they stay so conservative and scared of the pick that they fail. Fitz racked those picks up earlier in his career but seems to be getting it now. What's funny is the same pattern existed with many current pro bowl quality QB's. High TD's, High INT's, high yards per attempt, then as they progressed the INT's fell off and wham, a franchise QB emerges.

 

Not saying Fitz is that guy just yet, but what he's showing is pretty darn encouraging. He's still growing, yet he trusts his guys and allows them to make plays and in turn I think this breeds trust a development from our skilled position players and offensive line. Not only does he trust his guys but those INT's are also starting to fall off, another very, very encouraging trend. If this keeps up we will not be drafting a QB folks, and gosh that would be great because we sure has heck need more 3-4 based personal.

 

Thanks Fitz, thanks for giving me the hope that seemed to be forever lost with this team.

At first I thought it was going to be intelligence, then I realized Drew wasn't that sharp. I like Fitz because he is a gamer, his teammates seem to pick up on that as well, and he is reads the D's so well, that he is able to create some nice plays.
