YoloinOhio Posted March 9, 2015 Author Posted March 9, 2015 When a guy knows your system he's the first choice to help. I think it was Trent green who followed Al Saunders around to a couple different teams.agreed. He may not even start. But he's the perfect vet backup for Chan.
billsfan89 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Would make sense for Fitz to reunite with Chan. Jets need a veteran option at QB.
YoloinOhio Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 @ProFootballTalk: Once Brian Hoyer signs with the Texans, they're expected to ship Ryan Fitzpatrick to the Jets http://t.co/muIONyuPm9
K D Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I see Fitz as our Matt Cassel or Kyle Orton. Veteran backup who is ready to go in just in case. I still think the Jets will somehow either get Mariotta or have a trade with the Eagles to get Bradford plus picks

I still think the Jets will somehow either get Mariotta or have a trade with the Eagles to get Bradford plus picks That's exactly what those guys should be. Good backups/ spot starters. Expecting anything more is silly. You are better going with a young guy because there is a cap on how far those veteran guys can take you. It's why I hated the Orton thing and it looks even worse now that Marrone and Orton are both gone.

Yes but the problem is that EJ has shown nothing to indicate that he will ever be a top tier QB, and has shown signs of why he will not. Now, I happily concede that he was not used properly. He imo needs to be a running qb but he didn't look so good in this area either. I predict that EJ will not win the starting job. It would be great if he did win it and went on to produce, but I just am not seeing it. But fear not, I thought that Rob Johnson was going to be a star because I was mesmerized by his talent.

It's fair though I think he has had more moments than you (Pats game, 2nd Jets game, Panthers). You love Mallett and I've never seen anything special about him. IT's ok to have different opinions. Fans and media love to call out busts after 1 or 2 years. I'm more patient and realize it's a process, especially at the QB position. But he certainly needs to earn it. I will say if it is close between Cassel and Manuel, they should give it to EJ. Cassel is who he is at this point. And it's not like I've won a bet with you before. (cough, signature, cough).

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 not sure how old this is The Ryan Fitzpatrick-to-the-Jets move could be a trade
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I wish Buffalo would bring him back. Why? We already have a stockpile of average quarterbacks and may be adding Taylor to that mix.

....lybob Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Fitz can give a speech http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2014092802/2014/REG4/bills@texans#menu=gameinfo|contentId%3A0ap3000000404139&tab=analyze&analyze=boxscore
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Done deal @SportsCenter: THIS JUST IN: Texans trade QB Ryan Fitzpatrick to Jets for late-round conditional draft pick. (via @AdamSchefter) http://t.co/zAi2mZYlKP Ya got to hand it to Fitz. He was drafted in the 7th a decade ago, and he's held his value.
FloridaSnow Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Actually pretty worried about this. Would have much rather faced Geno. Say what you want about Fitz, the dude is a gamer.
H2o Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Actually pretty worried about this. Would have much rather faced Geno. Say what you want about Fitz, the dude is a gamer. Until late in the game when he finds a way to choke the game away.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I would love to face Fitz twice... He has never beat Rex I think. 2009 Game 6 16-13 W 2012 Game 16 28-9 W In between there, 5 losses though. Rex really did p'wn Gailey. If they want him as a backup and mentor, I think it's a good move for the Jets.
mikemac2001 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Rex plays a ton in the box vs fitz bc was never worried about deep ball
FireChan Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Until late in the game when he finds a way to choke the game away. Just like week 4!
Best Player Available Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Ya got to hand it to Fitz. He was drafted in the 7th a decade ago, and he's held his value.We think it's because he went to Harvard. IMO
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Actually pretty worried about this. Would have much rather faced Geno. Say what you want about Fitz, the dude is a gamer. Please look this up in your urban dictionary. Fitz is a lot of things but he is not a gamer. Great guy, good Vet to have around with starting experience. He is absolutely not a gamer. For every win vs NE he has three terrible loses at the end. Like the Titans game from later that year.
