Bubba Gump Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 He's obviously smart enough. I'm not sure if anyone knew this, but he went to Harvard. He loves the game and loves Buffalo. I'd give him a shot. Maybe he could get Josh's head back in the game instead of in his ass. 3 1 2 1 2 2 Quote

Blank Stare Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Can’t imagine him being interested in passing up the cushy TV gig to come deal with this mess. 2 1 1 9 1 Quote
RoyBatty is alive Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) I like Fitzie as well as most Bill fans abut we have ZERO idea if he has any desire, ability or inclination to do it. He is a natural on TV and well liked even beyond Buffalo, why would he abandon that. Edited November 15, 2023 by RoyBatty is alive 1 2 Quote

NewEra Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Sure, but I don’t think he wants that grind. He’s got a great gig that allows him to spend a lot of time with his family 1 Quote
MarkyMannn Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Fitz made $80m in his career. Why would he want that level of demanding work, 60 hours a week during the season 2 1 1 Quote
JohnBonhamRocks Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Could you imagine if Fitz was Dobbs’ QB coach? The combined brainpower! 6 Quote
Bruffalo Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 He's living his best life right now, in what world would he possibly want to give that up and grind day in and day out. There's a reason why you don't see successful players go into coaching. 1 1 Quote

boater Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Fitzy as Bills QB Coach? Now, we're just being silly. I will file this under the same dynamic as "Jim Kelly as Part Owner of Bills" or "Chad Kelly as Bills QB" There is no unbridled sentimentality like that of a Bills fan. 1 1 Quote

Expand Bryan Cox has an estimated net worth of 5m. That's 75 million less than Fitzpatrick, not including any advertising money he made during his career. 5 million is a lot of money, but it's not generational FU money. Quote
