Stubborn as he is, I would say its a better than even chance he does exactly that. The man has no view of the future but only the "now". 2017 started right after the Miami game but Todd didn't want to accept that. 2017 is screaming at Todd but I don't think he can accept or plan that far into the future. That's where having a real GM stepping in and mandating the future is now comes in handy. Thanks Woody.. So Boyz, what do ya think? If Bowles starts FitzTragic next week.....
Since the guys calling the game said that Bowles isn't interested in building for 2017, I'd imagine that Bowles will trot Fitzpatrick out there again next week. Hopefully he's not interested in building for 2017 because he'll be elsewhere contributing to the demise of some other franchise.
Jetfannerd: Petty isn't the answer, and Fitz gives us the best chance to win. Start Fitz through 2018. Champ: RYAN FITZPATRICK IS 3/11 IN 2016. NCJetsFan: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Todd Bowles, Chan Gailey, MikeMaccagnan, and Woody Johnson are effing dead to me. I hope IK breaks into the team's facility and shaves Fitz's beard. Abyzmul: You're an idiot.
Hell yes. If the shit show he's put up the previous 9 games wasn't enough to bench him, today was basically a Pro-Bowl performance for Fitz...
Bowles will decide to start Fitz. Whether or not someone steps in and prevents that is another question.
Of course he'll start Fitz. Compared to his 6 INT performance against the Chiefs, he looked like Joe Montana today. He'll be under center next week.
I'm not one to call for anyone's firing but if they march Fitzoid out there next week, someone needs to be canned. That would be an incredible act of malfeasance on the part of the Jets staff and ownership.
The real question should be why wouldn't he? Fitzpatrick played pretty good today, outside of the turnover at the end, this us a business woody wants to make money, Fitzpatrick us probably the best option for that to happen, and I can't stand Fitz, I do however want to see Hackenberg play the season finale.
Shitz played good, but still choked at the end....even if he was 24-24 with 5tds, he will still be Shitz, he stinks, get the fuck out of here...signed a 51 year Jests fan
Because there's absolutely nothing to be gained from it. If we start the young qbs at least we'll get some idea of what they can offer.
Why do you think there were so many empty seats today? Jet Fans are done with Fitz and with good reason. Woody wants to make money? he's gonna need fans in the ballpark buying concessions. Trotting out Fitz one more time at home amounts to a gigantic fuck you to the fans. Bowles already has stated he doesn't really care what the fans think. I guess he won't mind playing on Monday nite in front of nobody as we fans don't really care what Bowles thinks too. Playing Fitz next monday night will ignite yet another Fan revolt just like 2014. Maybe not to the extent of planes and banners, but a true revolt in the form of a boycott. The stadium today was pretty damn quiet. Next monday night, with Fitz starting the place will sound more like a library.
