26CornerBlitz Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Laughable! He's just good enough to frustrate the hell out of you and get your team beat when it means the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobillsinytown Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I love Fitzy, but he's not consistent enough to take a team to the playoffs and win. Just saw it today. He makes bad decisions under pressure. The picks he threw today were pretty much on him. He's a good guy, but just doesn't have the intangibles.

Jamie Nails Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I would hate to be the Jets now. Missed the playoffs and are right where we were at in 2012. They have hitched their wagons to Fitz and have to pay/play him, which is not the answer long-term. This was as good as it'll get for him and it still wasn't enough. I wouldn't be surprised to see Geno back in the mix in camp. I for one am happy to have a QB that might have more room to grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prickly Pete Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) He did it is such a classic Fitz-ian manner. It was a thing of beauty....story book fashion Fitzyness! These are the kinds of games that keep me interested in the Bills through these lean seasons. He's back in the stadium of the team that he made his name as a starter with....The team that got rid of him in embarrassing fashion.... Last game of the year...Playoffs on the line....Glorious.

Nervous Guy Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 He did it is such a classic Fitz-ian manner. It was a thing of beauty....story book fashion Fitzyness! He truly outdid himself, usually it's just a single crushing pick at the end...not on three consecutive possessions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just driven home, repeatedly, that Fitz's shortcoming was the reason they were gonna lose. Can there be any doubt NOW? Can he keep his job in NY? I mean, how can you sell him to the players and fans, as the QB next season? Edited January 3, 2016 by HoF Watkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max997 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 16-37 2 TDs and 3 ints is what you get from Fitz in a must win game vs a secondary playing mostly backups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blargo Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Classic Fitz. Play good enough to get you close in the late 3rd and early 4th and then just fold when you really need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) Yep. Rag arm ain't gonna get it done. Ever. He doesn't have much of an arm. No one is ever going to argue the contrary. However, the thing that has always puzzled me about Fitz is his awful decision making. It seems like whenever the pressure is on his decision making becomes suspect. I just enjoy the irony given the fact that he's a Harvard guy. He could overcome his physical limits and at least lead a team to the playoffs if he played smarter in crunch time. It's as if he doesn't recognize his own physical limitations. Edited January 3, 2016 by DriveFor1Outta5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 This is a guy whose destiny was to be a great backup QB. But he keeps getting into starting QB situations, and he's not good enough for that role. Fitz is a great guy, a great teammate. Did you see the hug Fitz and Eric Wood gave each other? His teammates on the Bills wished him well, completely, except when playing the Bills, which is as good as it gets. So he's a very rich man thanks to the Bills, but will probably never get to the SB. Possibly never get to the playoffs. His kids will take that trade -- the money over the playoffs -- but I'll bet he'd give up a few million (boy that sounds stupid when you see it typed) to be in a better situation as backup, behind someone like Brady or Carson Palmer. Someone who can be relied on to be ready to step in if the starter is injured, and keep the boat afloat. With Fitz as TT's backup, we beat Jacksonville, no question. Possibly even Cincinnati. Being as frank as possible, the Jets won 10 games thanks to that great defense, a very good O line, Chris Ivory (one of my favorite RBs), Brandon Marshall, and Chan Gailey doing a great job in his proper job. Fitz could be Fitz and usually the defense would bail him out. Just wondering -- if the Jets do the math like the Bills did, and figure Fitz is never going to win them a championship. They draft a QB high and figure that rookie can love life with that D, that O line, those receivers, etc. and look to the future. So they cut Fitz loose. I wonder if he still has his house in Hamburg... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
