The warning signs were there even that he still was a substandard QB. Anyone who pointed this out was shouted down by many at TSW. His meltdown was far worse than anyone could have imagined. Of course nobody thought he would be a top 10 QB, but most thought he could move the ball some for a few weeks until Allen was ready. Expectations were pretty low, and he couldn't even meet those.

IF you want to salvage the season (and maybe you don't for a myriad of reasons), Fitzpatrick - as of October 15, 2018 - is better than Peterman, Anderson and Allen. 1
FearLess Price Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 that would be hilarious. im def a fitzpatrick fan but if a healthy JA has to sit for fitz or any other retread qb to start its gonna be doom. Doooooooooooooom!!!

RochesterRob Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 I did not read all the responses and while I would not love this it might be one of the more practical moves to be made at this point. One problem I do see is that his cap number may be too high to do this w/o the Bills making some sacrifice they presently cannot afford.

Trading draft compensation for an old backup QB named Ryan Fitzpatrick is practical? It's anything but that. It's a moot point regardless because there's no way the Bucs will deal him since they'd be left with nothing if Winston is injured.

This peterman thing needs to stop permanently. What ever happened to Thad Lewis? Can he still ball? 1 hour ago, st pete gogolak said: He's not a savior and he's not a long term answer. He's not even an answer beyond this year. I posted this only to posit this question - is the season worth saving? Do you waste this defense? I think Allen certainly has some potential but it's pretty obvious he's not ready. When is the last time Derek Anderson completed a pass in an actual NFL game? I think Fitzpatrick is a very limited QB but he's better than what we have. Anybody else out there that's can be had cheap that improves the situation? You got it man, give JA a smart qb to learn from on and off the field. Unfortunately on the field would also be learning from Fitz mistakes but at least itll be entertaining. I hated having Fitz as our starter but he loves Buffalo and would be a lot less embarrassing that what we've got going now.
Jaywrizzo Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 1 hour ago, Nelius said: What? Fitz doesn’t have an interception rate anywhere near Peterman, and while he does throw interceptions, he also throws touchdowns, and multiple completions, many of which are like (gasp!) 20 or more yards downfield. I can absolutely understand the eye rolling and apprehension, but if you don’t realize that Fitz is currently on a much higher tier than any of our current QBs, then I don’t know what to tell you. Dude...you're crazy....Look at Fitz last game as a Buccaneer.....Look what Fitz did, playing for the Jets against the Bills.....3 Ints, in a game he neesed to make yhe Playoffs...no way! If Josh Allen needs someone to talk to, comong off the field....let it be Anderson . We should've never rushed to give Fitz that contract back then.

Practical in that it is a bone thrown to the defense to keep up their high level of play. Fitzpatrick would not have to put the team on his shoulders with this defense and that might cut down on some of his turnovers. I don't love Fitz as an option but I don't want the team to quit and go through another coaching/GM cycle.

Happy Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 41 minutes ago, WhoTom said: Maybe, but it's also possible that Fitz throws the same pick that Peterman threw. He does have a history of that. Yep. Funny how people forget this.

You’re trying to claim that Fitz and Peterman are the same. Fitz is also light years beyond the corpse of Derek Anderson. Just stop.

gobills1212 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 THIS is the perfect example of how bad it has gotten around here. Next time someone has an issue, just remember someone had the wisdom to actually post and sign their name to a thread calling for RYAN FREAKING FITZPATRICK to come be our savior. WTF ARE YOU THINKING? Pack it in and call it a day, bc this might be the single silliest thing ive ever read here. There have been some doozies but this.... this takes the cake. Troll job of the year!!! Good job mate, good job

Will just ask instead of continuing to derail - do you truly think there’s no difference between Fitz and Peterman?
BmarvB Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Been there, done that. If Allen goes down and he has to play, which fitz do we get?
RochesterRob Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 1 hour ago, 26CornerBlitz said: Then you sign a street FA like Landry Jones. Might be time for Landry Jones as a stop gap measure. Peterman can no longer be sold to the fanbase and Allen's injury though possibly minor would give him the breather he needs and save face. I just have a feeling that Anderson's "deal" does not include playing if it can be helped. It sure would be nice sitting in at any staff meetings involving Anderson today to hear the conversation. I would not put the chance of the Bills signing or trading for a stop gap totally at zero for this week.

They are not trading picks away for stop gap. If there was no intention of giving Anderson any playing time they could have just signed him on as an assistant qb coach, and thus saved the roster spot.
