thewildrabbit Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 underthrown....77 yard TD pass by Fitz
The Big Cat Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 His "deep" TD throw to Nate Washington shows you everything you need to know.
prissythecat Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 . Doesn 't have an nfl arm I just saw him throw a 77 yard TD pass .
Tcali Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 I just saw him throw a 77 yard TD pass . sure you did
Mark80 Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 He most certainly was part of the problem here. Not all of the problem, but certainly part of it. I still hope he does well, at least this week. After this week, I hope the Titans lose out, they could take a WC spot from us!! This. While I loved his attitude and heart, he just simply didn't have the arm to get it done. Was he hurt by poor coaching? Absolutely. But, he wasn't and will never be a Super Bowl winning quality QB with his skill set. I would still love him as our backup QB.
Fan in Chicago Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Geno Smith takes the cake for the most wtf play of this week. Backed up deep in his Jets territory, with pressure in his face, Geno decides to switch ballfrom his right hand to left, behind his back. Gets hit, loses the ball and Titans recover n EZ for TD. Flub of the week.
MDH Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Fitz was certainly part of the problem. I'll give you that the defense was one of the worst I've ever seen but the fact Fitz couldn't be counted on to regularly execute was absolutely a contributor to last season's finish. Fitz has his flaws but it's tough to look good with the wide-outs he was throwing to. Other than SJ he had nothing.
YoloinOhio Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) Fitz is and has always been a great backup. His ceiling just isn't that high. He has a great work ethic, attitude, intelligence, skill... but the talent level isn't where it needs to be for franchise QB. He was brutal last year. Bills were caught up in the hype and jumped the extension, bad move - but it wasn't all that much $. Someone just tweeted that the 3.25 mill the Titans were paying him as a backup was well worth it for the insurance he provides. True, but they may have to deal with a QB controversy at some point and the cycle will continue. Fitz didn't want to stay here as a backup and I don't blame him. I think one of the best things EJ has going for him is that there isn't that "capable vet" waiting in the wings. It is all him, he knows it, he isn't going to be replaced by Jeff Tuel. As a rookie, it is better to have this confidence than to have competition breathing down your shoulder. Kolb was supposed to be that guy, it didn't work out. Tuel knows EJ is the man ans even if he makes some mistakes, it is on him to get better and learn from them and get 100% of the reps than to worry about whether he is going to get benched. When/if Sanchez returns, Geno may deal with that. Edited September 29, 2013 by YoloInTheBlo
Rocky Landing Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 I hope he does well, really well. Said it before, I'll say it again, he was not this team's problem last year . . . exhibit A = today's game won by a real Defense I do like EJ and glad we have him, but Fitz was not the problem I agree
26CornerBlitz Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Speaking of ex-Bills, Crezdon Butler made a game clinching play by forcing a Cowboys fumble at the SD 1 yd line.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) The ref got blasted in the play It wasn't a good pass. It was five yards short. But it was good enough to be a 40 yard completion. The Ref somewhat caused the play to be a TD, getting in the way, but it was going to be completed anyway. Still, the pass was both way short, and still good enough to be a completion. The Ref prevented (maybe) the tackle, not the completion. Edited September 29, 2013 by Kelly the Dog
Big Gun Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Fitz was certainly part of the problem. I'll give you that the defense was one of the worst I've ever seen but the fact Fitz couldn't be counted on to regularly execute was absolutely a contributor to last season's finish. Who did he have to throw the ball to? Jones? cut, Nelson? cut, Roosevent? cut, Dickerson? cut, Smith, Martin, hands of stone TJ or I drop everything Stevie, c'mon now! I'm glad EJ is here but Fitz wasn't the problem. Fitz took way to many chances because he had to.
John in Jax Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 It wasn't a good pass. It was five yards short. But it was good enough to be a 40 yard completion. The Ref somewhat caused the play to be a TD, getting in the way, but it was going to be completed anyway. Still, the pass was both way short, and still good enough to be a completion. The Ref prevented (maybe) the tackle, not the completion. Good post. Just saw the highlight reel. More like 10 yards short. Noodle arm, for sure. LOL
YoloinOhio Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Speaking of ex-Bills, Crezdon Butler made a game clinching play by forcing a Cowboys fumble at the SD 1 yd line. Good, because he made a game clinching play the other way last week! Good for him though...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Sorry Titan fans! Sorry for the fans 'cuz the Titans blew out the Jets? It's a tough break for Locker if it's as serious as the stretcher/ambulance thing would imply Fitz wasn't "the Man" and it's probably best that B'lo moved on completely, but the Titans have one of the league's better backup QB. If you disagree - list your choices for a better backup across the league.
Alaska Darin Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Who did he have to throw the ball to? Jones? cut, Nelson? cut, Roosevent? cut, Dickerson? cut, Smith, Martin, hands of stone TJ or I drop everything Stevie, c'mon now! I'm glad EJ is here but Fitz wasn't the problem. Fitz took way to many chances because he had to. That argument would hold a lot more weight if he regularly hit the guys who were open. He didn't. I don't hate the guy but his limits were regularly exposed and he hit his ceiling in a very obvious manner.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Dude has to put his whole body into a 5 yard out. Yeah, shame he had to put his whole body into that 77 yd TD pass (47 yds in the air) and he didn't hit the receiver in stride. News flash: real NFL receivers come back for the ball all the time. Kinda fun watching the Zebra get pancaked.
Captain Hindsight Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 I hope he does well, really well. Said it before, I'll say it again, he was not this team's problem last year . . . exhibit A = today's game won by a real Defense I do like EJ and glad we have him, but Fitz was not the problem Agreed. Fitz got the most out of his talent and with a solid D he could have been a solid QB
