Fitzy's on a personal mission to play for every team in the League during his career. Thing is, every team he's played for believe his career is over.. We had him completely figured out last season and their offense only mustered 1drive the whole game. Fitzy didn't win that game, Manuel lost it -and his job.

Fitz is a big upgrade over Geno, and could either start if necessary or mentor a rookie. Good move by the Jets.

 

Fitz had a good year with Gailey, and Gailey seemed able to find ways to put Fitz in a position to succeed. Good move for Fitz.

 

Fitz is a great guy and I wish him the best, except when playing the Bills. I don't think the Jets will be very good this year but they have added several important pieces to some they already had. I think they'll pick up CJ Spiller but not Fred Jackson -- they already have Chris Ivory who in some ways is a younger version of Fred.

The Jets are doing well guys. Fitz is Fitz as we know, he will win them games and lose them games. With that new HC their D should be much better too. Brandon Marhsall is a stud and they got a good FA G too.

You know their old HC was pretty good at defense too...

What you're seeing here is a version of whathappened in Buffalo for the last 5-6 years.

 

Dysfunctional ownership and bad drafting leads to a situation where there is no stable leadership and few high quality veterans.

 

Now they have to field a team with a lot of people who wouldn't really be starting elsewhere in the league alongside the occasional big name veteran who will be enough to sell season tickets.

Yeah, there won't be any issues between Brandon Marshall and Fitzy during the year. :lol:

IDK if a record of 20-33 as a bills starter and going 6-10 for Gailey is considered being put in a postion to succeed, and getting a extension that is one of the teams worst ever. I'll go on a ledge and say maybe Gailey put his faith in the wrong guy. Glad both of them are on the Jets now, so the Bills can continue there dominance Over that team.

I'm not sure that the Bills are in any better shape than the Jets or the Dolphins at this point. I would give the Bills a slight edge over the Jets in terms of their respective defenses although they're both top ten- probably both top five- defenses. I would give the Jets a slight edge at QB now over the Bills. I think the Bills only clear cut position of dominance over the rest of the division is at running back. If we play to our strengths and really do ground and pound I think that gives us our best chance to win. I think the AFC East will be VASTLY improved and might even be the best division in football next year.

especially if the play action gets rolling and our qb can connect on a few big plays every now and again.

The AFC East is going to be BANANAS next year. Just with the move of Rex to Buffalo the division got a jolt, games between the Bills and Jets and *pats will all have a little extra flavor. Now with the arms race going on in the division the past week and change, it's only gotten more fun. You're right that the division will be vastly improved all around, and it should be a lot of fun to watch.

 

Though I feel the Jets aren't in that great of shape, and the Dolphins are awful. I'm not scared of either of those teams as a Bills fan. But that's me.

*great shape and awful compared to the Bills, not overall.

Eggggggggcellent. Now..... Some one find Tyler thigpens phone number.

every bit of 6-10

Remember, they went 6-10 with a dumpster fire of a defense.... what would they have done with a stout defense, which the Jets will likely have?

 

I wouldn't at all be surprised if the Jets and the Bills have similar records this year, with a similar method of winning.
