All we've been begging for is average QB play and folks are complaining?

    Nobody likes Kurds. That's really all there is to it and you just need to accept it.

    So - now the question is, what did Geno do with that $600 he got from IK? If he didn't spend it, he could pay IK back in time. If he used it for something necessary, his mom wouldn't have a problem reimbursing that 600 bucks, no?

    He didn't get $600 from Enemkpali. Enemkpali bought a $600 plane ticket that he never showed up to use due to a friends funeral in close proximity to the flight.

    The real question is how the heck did a plane ticket cost $600? Airlines are practically paying customers to get on these days, particularly if the tickets are bought well in advance.

    Edit: figured it out. It was a 1st class ticket of course and that's the kind that actually costs money.

    Here are some numbers from last year

    63.1 - Rank 20 - Cp Pct - 59.7 - Rank 27
    206.9 - Rank 31 - YPG 180.4 - Rank 41
    2.13:1 - Rank 15 - TD/INT Ratio 1:1 - Rank 40
    1 - Rank 5 - Fum Lost - 3 - Rank 17
    21 - Rank 7 - Sacked - 28 - Rank 15

    Numbers really aren't that close, certainly not even. Another stat, which I don't really know how they come up with it so did not include above, Sporting Charts has a bad pass percentage, Geno was at 17.44% and Fitz was at 15.38%, probably the stat in which they are the closest. So far this year Fitz has brought his down to 12.07% which makes me question the stat.

    I am not at all trying to say Fitz is a good QB but only looking at last years numbers he is certainly who I would go with if choosing between the 2 of them. The only reason I want to see Geno this year is if Fitz starts losing games.

    Well I can respect your post. You used a rational argument to come to a conclusion.

    You want to start knocking off good games then you take away the last game at Miami. Take that way from Geno and his YPG is down to 155YPG, Cmpl Pct drops to .581 and his TD to INT ratio drops to .77:1

    I never said knock of any, but Fitz certainly wasn't consistent by any stretch last year. It's a moot point with you because you basically understand what I'm getting at. Im hoping we don't have a qb carousel, but given the qb history it's likely to happen this year.

    If you say "Fitz had one really good game against a shitty Tennessee team that we beat as well. That's where a good chunk of these stats you wanna use come in. Otherwise they're practically the same.", you effectively want to take those stats out of the discussion and when comparing the two the only way to then make a fair comparison is take the stats from Geno's best game out of the discussion.

    I don't think anyone is changing anyone else's mind though so I'll leave it at that.

    Fitz and the O looking like complete trash. Defense is already exhausted because we can't get a fucking first down. What a let-down...

    Fitz has never been good. We laughed and celebrated when he was the Bills QB and then stuck our heads up our ass to celebrate him like he was good simply because we could rationalize he was better than Geno.

    He wasn't even good last week.

    You guys were right...Fitz is amazing.

    That one play where he missed a wide open Devin Smith for what would have been a huge gain for a first down and instead threw the ball to a receiver being covered by 3 people...showed true veteran leadership...knowing such early success could have blown up Devin's ego and made him less hungry to improve. Fitzpatrick always sees the big picture. Maybe not wide open receivers, but he sees the big picture.

    Rather be 8-8 with Fitz than 8-8 with Geno. This game is not just on fitz.

    This is worse than watching Pennington throw the deep ball.

    You guys are amazing. Disappear and wait for a losing game to post negative responses. Nobody should expect this team to have 9 plus wins. Nine is doable but not a guarantee. More like 7-8 wins until our real QB comes along and it isn't geno..
