Fitzpatrick - Are you buying what the Bills are selling??

[Griff]

A lot of Fitz hate in this thread

Personally? I love the guy.......Fitz is what he is. Gutsy, Mobile, takes risks, leader

He is not a player that can put a team on his shoulders
He is not always accurate
He cannot keep WR's from dropping balls
He cannot deep WR's from popping balls in the air for picks

Run the fricken ball

This. Fitz has average arm strength and accuracy but he makes up for it with brains and guts. I have never seen so many INTs off tips in my life.

I think if the Line can stay healthy and another good receiver is added Fitzpatrick will be just fine and with the new and improved defense probably get the Bills to the Playoffs.

Nope.

He is as advertised. Inaccurate, average arm, bad decision maker. Gotta hope he just puts up about the same numbers with about 10 less picks.

Hopefully we can win field position battles more with the D.

This^ , Altho i like fitz better than any qb the bills have had since JK, he is what he is.

Bills with Fitzpatrick as QB will always be a treadmill team. If they want to be perennial playoff contenders they must draft a franchise QB.

Atlanta and Chicago? Cutler has a powerful arm but the guy is a egomaniac and Matt Ryan is not great at all.

So you believe Fitz can start in ATL or Chicago over Cutler and Matty Ice? LOL

I'm not buying it hook, line and sinker but I am hopeful that there is some truth to what they said about the injuries. That would make ne feel better about the drop off in production from him.

That brain has produced a 75 career passer rating, 68 tds to 65 ints, and only 18 wins. Not impressive. If anything, Fitzpatrick needs to be "smarter" with the football, and show much better accuracy, particularly on passes sailing beyond 15 yards.

I am selling. Here's a quarterback which is turning 30 years old, been in the league since 2005, been on three teams, and took most of the snaps during the 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 season, and has produced one of the most worst passer ratings and winning% for any starting QB. Yet many of you seem to think he's going to make a gigantic leap? Come on people. I know you want a real QB, but Fitzpatrick isn't one of them. And as always, I hope I am dead wrong on this one.

He could, but this would mean that Cutler and Matty Ice would have to be injured.

A poll about Fitzpatrick? Funny how I've never seen this subject come up here before......
