    Fitz plays great the first season when he is with a team.

    You aren't changing a 33 year old tigers stripes.

    First full year starting in Buffalo: 3000 yards, 23 TD's, 15 INT's.

    Next year: 24 TD's, 23 INT's

    I love Fitz. I really do. I wish he was still a Bill. Has heart. Toughness. Grit.

    But this is what he does. So enjoy it guys.

    He's playing better here than he ever did in Buffalo, and he's got the weapons that any QB would die to have. So I think you're making an apples to oranges comparison. His stats, 29 TD, 11 INT, 91.4 rating, 3724 yards. So yeah, I'll continue enjoying it.

    This is what Fitz does? When did he ever win 10 games with your sorry franchise? When did he ever have a win and in week 17 scenario? Did he ever lead 4 game tying/winning drives in the 4th quarter/OT in a 5 week stretch? FOH.

    Totally different scenario. He has serious weapons here to work with. I think the majority of this message board understands what Fitz is. A good solid starter who can hold the fort until the Jets find a long term answer at the position.

    At the start of the year you guys said we were screwed with Fitz at QB. He played well.

    Then you said he would fade down the stretch. He got better.

    Now you're hanging your hat on what he will do next season. Maybe the issue was those Buffalo teams were shit?

    You think he sucks, yet you wish he was still a Bill.

    You can't get your story straight. Sounds like you've taken after your coach.

    Isn't your team eliminated from PO contention?

    29 TDs, ONLY 12 interceptions. Far better than what he did in BUF.

    Why don't you put up more GIFs of Sammy Watkins running routes after the QB decides not to throw Watkins the ball to discredit Revis?

    LOL.

    I just want this thread so I can link back to it next year.

    Of course, you guys will just say "Whatever" when he falls apart. But it'll be satisfying none the less.

    Give me quotes to use against you!!!

    I never said any of that.

    Except I wish he was still a Bill.

    I do.

    He is blue collar to the bone and I love that. Nothing to do with his ability.

    He'll fall apart if the team around him deteriorates. He's not the type of guy who can transcend his supporting cast and elevate the team, but if you give him a talented team he'll work with it. The Bills never gave him anywhere near what he has with the Jets, either defensively or offensive weapon wise. If you take away Marshall or Decker, or if the defense drops from being great to being average, he's going to regress. Duh, congratulations, you're right.

    If we field a team with equal or better talent next year he will play just as well. Again, I don't give a shit what he did in Buffalo. Those Bills teams were mediocre.

    We shall see next year :)

    PS: I know Terrell Owens and Lee Evans is so no Marhsall/Decker (HOF combo, am i right) but not bad for Fitz to throw to.

    Ahh, yes.

    The talent argument.

    I wonder why teams with talent weren't flocking to Fitz when he was a Free Agent THREE TIMES in the past 5 years?

    Must be that they dont know as much as Jets fans?

    Yeah, nothing screams heavy equipment operator, off duty pipe fitter or volunteer fireman like a degree from Harvard.

    Fitz is a stopgap QB who is performing above his head with better talent on offense than he's had with any team he has played for. He is what he is.

    I guess I'd be butthurt too if my team paid a glorified backup like a franchise QB. LMAO


    Oh, by the way, enjoy Rex Ryan. This season is definitely what he does.
