FireChan Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Super Bowl. It's not like he will throw interceptions all over the place. That being said, good luck. 2nd round qb after they nab Clowney will fight Fitz for job. Can't be worse than Schaub's meltdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Shaub is gone. Fitz will start next season while they groom their new #1 overall pick QB. Then Fitz moves to backup. It's a good plan but who knows how it will all play out. I honestly always considered those two to be somewhat comparable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in My Blood Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Never was an easier guy to root for. I hope he loses to the Bills the AFC title game next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Caveman Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 St. Louis, Cincy, Buffalo, Tennessee and now Houston? How does this joker keep finding work? His agent must practice black magic. He's better that most backup QBs in the league. Which is what he'll probably be in Houston (at least eventually.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JESSEFEFFER Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Played some good football for the Titans last year. Three of his better games were against the Jags, Colts and Cards and were losses. Probably some combination of failures in the clutch that we all have witnessed in the past. He actually was more productive in the run game for them than for the Bills. But if he plays much it's very likely he will.............. Help mask problems in O-line play. Get the ball to his teammates and allow them to be more productive. Play without fear to the edge of being reckless and beyond. Take hits and stay in the game. Come up short in the clutch about half the time. Shoulder the blame for failures even when not his fault. I wish him well. He has made the most of what talent he has and I'd like to see him rewarded with some measure of professional success. My opinion was that he was always offered more as a QB than as a passer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 St. Louis, Cincy, Buffalo, Tennessee and now Houston? How does this joker keep finding work? His agent must practice black magic. The thing is that the Bills are still paying him on the contract he signed here . Who ever allowed that to happen the way that it did should do one of two things , either be made to pay the remainder of the contract after he's let go or immediately be fired !!

Bronc24 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Never was an easier guy to root for. I hope he loses to the Bills the AFC title game next season. He was so overrated on this board that I rooted against him all last season. He didn't disappoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estro Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Anybody know how much money Fitz has made the past 3-4 seasons. He's gotta be up around $20 + million. Not bad for a Harvard grad! Let's not forget we play @ Houston this year. I think he'll be backing up Blake Bortles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumbalaya Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 You call all bust on Fitz as much as you like but Fitz played better than any other QB that we have had in over 5 years including EJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokinES3 Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) I honestly always considered those two to be somewhat comparable... They're not, in fairness to Schaub... Schaub has an arm, led the league in passing in '09, 2 pro bowls, high YPG, high QBR, not much in common at all besides a fair amount of picks. As far as last year, anyone's guess is as good as mine.

Bills Fan of St Augustine Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I wish him the best. He would be a very capable back up and better than what we have. Hopefully, EJ will improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I think fitzpatrick fits. He is a good guy, but never could peice it together here (or in TEN). Despite the poor play here in Buffalo, I will NEVER doubt bill o'briens QB development or QB scouting abilty. I guarentee you that whoever houston has under center will outplay whatever you think about them 10 times over. See: Matt McGloin. Walk-on at Penn State. Somehow became a starter under Paterno, even though he was TERRIBLE. He was the WORST QB I have ever seen (yes, even as a bills fan...). Then suddenly, one year under O'Brien, and he sets Big 10 records, and in just one year becomes an NFL starter. 3 years ago I would have told you his "peak" would have been a backup at the college level. O'Brien is to credit for that. Also Brady. Also the new QB at Penn State (Christian Hackenberg - Remember the name, he is a future 1st round pick). The guy can flat our coach a QB. No better fit for Fitz either. Has everyone forgotten he can't throw an accurate pass beyond 15 yards and lost so many games for us late in the game with a pic. He seems to be a nice family guy who is like able, but he lost all three games he came in last year for TN. Your supposed to as a back up at least split your games at .500. Thad played better than Fitz last year as he at least won us two games. As far O'Brien, they said the same thing about Gailey. For his family's sake, I'm glad he found work, but his best position is carrying a clip board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
