eball Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 ...the bottom line in this results-oriented game of football is since the early stages of the 3rd quarter in week one, Fitz has thrown 8 TDs, 0 picks, and the Bills have outscored their opponents 80-45. I really still don't know what to make of Fitz, but it's amazing what having a good OL and DL can do for a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 and those 8 td passes are tops in the NFL with Ben Roethlisberger and Matt Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Well, he does scare the hell out me now...more so than last year.and it's not that he makes the wrong throw, it's just how off target he can be In terms of the O Line, will always remember the year Rypien had when the Hogs were just dominant.

Captain Hindsight Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Just keep it up Fitzy. Youre my quaterback, but you do scare me sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todzilla Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I still feel like I have as many questions as answers with Fitz. He's looked solid and efficient the last 2 weeks. More shakey after Spiller went down yesterday but still okay. Next week will be a big test without either of the star RB's. Are they saving the long bomb to TJ for the *pats?

Fan in Chicago Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 ...the bottom line in this results-oriented game of football is since the early stages of the 3rd quarter in week one, Fitz has thrown 8 TDs, 0 picks, and the Bills have outscored their opponents 80-45. I really still don't know what to make of Fitz, but it's amazing what having a good OL and DL can do for a team. In the last two games, he has played like we want him to - tone down on the gun-slinging style, take the safe play and let the run guide the O. It has helped that we have not played from behind which sometimes necessitates a bigger pass/run ratio. It is imperative that the D plays extra well against teams like the Pats* . So far so good but we need at least one of Fjax/CJ to keep this strategy going well esp against the better teams of the league. Our OL so far has helped a lot and yesterday we looked like a Shanahan coached Broncos O- plug in 'anybody' at RB and get good yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizell Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 i dont see how we're able to be successful with how scattershot fitz's passes are. bills receivers should have had 4 or 5 more catches but fitzpatrick's placement is terrible.

Wagon Circler Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 If they don't go quarterback in the first two rounds next year, they are nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 He is who he is and you get what you get. Yeah, they beat the winless Browns and the should be winless Chefs, but there will be problems when he's pressured. He had a few in the last 2 weeks....A FEW....that shoulda been intercepted. The empty hand fumble. Name the last dominant QB that you had that "box of chocolates" feeling. I think his top end is about 9 wins unless the Bills have THEE best running game in the NFL and their defense plays a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the bigs. If the football hits you in the hands, you gotta catch it. Fitz has been playing well the last 2 games. I'm happy with that. Actually, I 'm happy with the whole team.

Billsrhody Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 He's gonna have to carry the load against the Pats this weekend like he did last year.. Lets go Fitz you can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Against the Chiefs and the Browns. I'm not hating on Fitz, but he needs to be consistent. With this OL, he needs to improve against top competition and not just the dregs of the NFL. If there's no consistency and he can't cut the errant "Who the hell was that pass to?" and limited-distance problem, we need to move on and get a guy who can make all the throws at whatever distance.... It won't matter that they didn't go to Harvard and all that. Our QB for the next 6-8 years can't be so limited in this passing league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWest Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Fitz bought himself a couple more starts. Our 2 wins are against teams a combined 1-5, and should be 0-6-We havent betaen anyone yet. It is on Fitz now without Freddie and CJ...If he can get 2 wins in next 4 games-which will be tough, he will probably finish the season, but I wouldnt be shocked to see him fall apart...lose then next 4, and see Tavaris Jackson in there for second half of season either.

Really? Thanks coach. So, if we lose Sunday and Fitz plays poorly, does Tavaris Jackson get the keys to the car for the 49ers game? I didn't realize Fitz's grasp on the starting QB job was so tenuous. Edited September 24, 2012 by Johnny Hammersticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't buy himself anything. He was never in any danger of being benched in the first place. Bought himself a couple more starts, give me a break.

ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) I mean its the Chiefs and Browns and they won because of Spiller. We'll see if Ryan Fitzmuddbutt can beat the Patriots with no offensive help at RB. He didn't throw it more than what 22 times in each game? Without a RB he's gonna have to now we get to see how crappy or decent he is... Please try not to make it seem like he won the last two games when its obvious he was just there nothing special. The real question should be.. When we go out on Offense do you say to yourself " Please Fitz don't F**k it up or Fitz is gonna score?" Im a say 95% of people say the First not the latter... I should make that my first thread LOL... Edited September 24, 2012 by ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
